University - The Truth

It's pointless - sorry everyone who says it isn't but after yesterday I have officially decided that no, university is not a good use of time and money... I do have a proper case against it though so here goes -

My first ever first -

Yesterday I got an essay back with 72% (for those who don't go to Uni that means I managed to get a first!) which I was beyond thrilled with, actually I couldn't have been more happy... Not just because its a first but because it was a very unlikely result. This term I've had clashes with my extra curricular activities (cheerleading) have haven't attended my Tuesday lecture for one of my modules. Which in theory should mean I didn't know how to write the essay!
It doesn't stop there, my essay was on Ibsens "Hedda Gabbler" and the objective was to compare the women in the play to women in society now and look at how the play still has an impact. I haven't read the play. There you go readers! That's my biggest confession, I wrote a 2000 word essay on a play I've never read.
Then to top it off I researched and wrote and handed my essay in, all in a single day... Pathetic right? So HOW did I manage to get a first?! It should have been impossible!

Unless I'm a super genius and never knew it before now...

Highly unlikely right? But for the amount I'm paying to be at university you have to wonder what even is the point?!
Anyways rant over blog viewers!
