Wow, things havent changed much at all in the past 3 years. I somehow got into reading past diary entries from first year, and discovered that i was feeling the exact same way as I do now. Bla towards uni, horrible for over procrastinating, in the dark with friends and my laptop was being a nuisance. Though I prefer this years models periodic crashing then the ghostly dddds.
What have I learned? I have learned that my history repeats itself oh so damn much. also I never talk about my assignments anymore and thats a shame as they are nice to read about retroactively.
So what am I procrastinating over at the moment? Well, last night I had to write three critiques to other classmates research proposals, I found out it was due yesterday yesterday (somehow I had always thought it was wednesday) And I had to do two of them at work. Which caused me to neglect some extra work i could have done.. Oh well.
My research proposal is on fans of fan culture and how fanwrok can supersede that of the original work. I am using Yugioh The Abridged Series as my case study and propose to analyse the content of the videos to assess its popularity as well as investigat ethe community that has formed around it and its fan base while also looking at issues of internet celebrity and virtual culture. This is a hypothetical proposal and i most likely would not do it at all. Its perhaps far to frivoulous to be considered true acedemia. But damn it, I believe there is a whole new layer of fan culture here that has yet to be delved into.
My other paper requires me to write an essay, on what I dont know. I think I may relate it to internet memes or caramelldansen. Which is a great example of music disporia.
