Hey, I'm Lela and I'm currently studying communications and media at TAFE.
My ultimate goal is to score myself a magazine job, so I quit my day job and enrolled here at TAFE.
This is my first class-related blog.
I have had a lot of fun here so far, and have learnt so much already. It is quite a bit of work, but I know that in the end it will be well worth it.
We are only a couple of weeks into our studies and we have been given plenty of assignments and homework to keep us busy.
They tend to get us to do a lot of things here to push us out of our comfort zones. There's lots of talking in front of the class, presentations to be done and last week we even shot a video. It can be a little intimidating at times, but I know that the more that we do things like that, the easier it will become. It will help too when the class gets to know each other a little better and things aren't so awkward any more.
I'm not usually the shy type, but for some reason I'm not quite myself in this class yet. I'm not worried though, I know that it won't be long until my true personality comes through, so I'm looking forward to becoming my usual, confident self.
I am hoping that by the end of this course, I will have more skills then I need to land my dream job.
I have work experience with Girlfriend magazine in  September, which I am really looking forward to. I am planning on impressing them so much during my week of work experience, that they will hopefully offer me a job. If not, I will study at uni until I can get where I want to be.
