What am I doing?
Indeed what *am* I doing? *Laugh*
More pertinently I am commencing a degree in September 2010 my main subject is Zoology and my secondary subject is in my first shared between Geology and Broadcast Media. and after about ninety billion conversations with lots of sensible people, some not so sensible people, some people who work in what I want to work in and people who have no clue but have an opinion anyway-I'm doing a joint Zoology and Geology degree.

Where am I doing what I'm doing?
My university is local to where I live. Its a provincial former institute of higher education plus art college plus teaching college plus nursing college that's now a university. It isn't incredibly prestigious but it is incredibly friendly. That might not be a major criteria for a lot of people (especially not younger students) but it is for me. Interestingly though it is broadly regarded as less good than nearby city's second university (also a former mishmash of stuff) by students, someone who matters to me* works there and thinks my choice better. That of course might just be because he hates his students or something. That's very possible.

*this is code for "I'm not really supposed to talk about anyone in my life because they all get a bit grumbly and uncomfortable about it".
