It's amazing, how quick time comes around. It seems like just yesterday that I was sending the last couple of emails arranging contacts. Now I'm going on wonderful adventures to meet my fellow officer folk.
My first adventure began at Leicester train-station as I waited for my train. I was then entertained (and I use that term loosely) by a nice snoring man however Jackasnory left at Loughborough. I then arrived at Nottingham train station before catching the tram to Nottingham University.
One thing I must comment about Nottingham's campus is that it is absolutely gorgeous. There is a massive lake where you can go boating and a little mini-golf on the outskirts. It is a very pretty place for certain.
After admiring the scenary, I had a lengthy conversation about all things Postgaduate, SU and #TEFGolds (turns out they are a little bit more subtle than we are). I also got to sit down with a member of their activities department who explained to me how they get postgraduate students involved with the SU community and Matt also explained how his role differs to mine, since he's a full time Postgraduate officer whereas I'm only part-time.
Overall, I have lots of information that I relayed back to the voice and activity team and I can't wait to start planning things to make the student experience better for students here at DMU.
I'm actually speedtyping this entry because I'm going to the Greenhouse at 6:15 to partake in a live FB chat reference all things DMU and clearing.
Speaking of which, it's A-Level results day tommorow. For those who are waiting on their results, don't forget no matter what the exam gods have said, you will be able to find a path in life. I got 2 Cs and 3 Ds and am your Postgraduate officer. Should you need it, I have wrote a guide about how to do clearing at DMU of which you can read here.
At the end of the day, it's a piece of paper with some letters on it. Even if it's not what you expected, you should still be proud of yourself because I will be for you.
Until I hear the sound of students landing for their complusory jump shot,
toodle pips,
