It's fondue.

Yesterday was an entirely unbloggable day, the first truly awful day I’ve had yet this year on this course. The day started at seven thirty, and that’s never a good time to start anything. Following a decidedly subdued PAL session, we received, probably, a well deserved dressing down from our tutor. Sadly for me, I can’t help but think that I have been trying my utmost hardest over the last few weeks to cram as much work in as possible, and if that still isn’t good enough, then I guess I’m just not cut out for the course. And there’s nothing wrong with that, we can’t all be successes in life.

Now onto a marginally more positive aspect of my academic life, I use the term academic in the loosest possible manner. Our third and penultimate brief in Visual Communication in Context Two is called ‘Old from New’, and entails us picking an unfashionable food stuff from the list on our brief, including: tapioca, lard, mushy peas, rice pudding, fondue, tinned pies, Spam, luncheon meat and tinned vegetables. I have chosen to re brand tinned pies, mostly because despite them supposedly being redundant, I think that most of these products are actually quite good sellers. People like peas, Muller have released their Muller rice in yoghourt pots, fondue, although dreadful for you, is quite fashionable. I have chosen to do tinned pies because it’s just such a horrible concept for food. I mean tinned pies? Pies, in an actual tin?
