Thank you all for the sweet comments about my course last night. I'm sort of freaking out about it, inside. It's sort of like being back at school. I found out last night that we actually get assessed on it, have to a) do a live demo in front of the teacher, b) take a written test and c) hand in a a 30 recorded "demo" or little radio program covering an interview, station ids, music etc, and at least one "cart" ( I have no idea what that is)
Next week we jump straight into the studio ( aaahhh) and begin to learn all the button, techy stuff. I think also at the end we do a graveyard shift at rrr between the delightful hours of 2am-6am. I'll be downing lots of cups of tea that night I can tell you. Luckily I don't think many people will listen at that time, (except my mum- you know what mum's are like)
Anyway I really like the teacher, Camilla, she seems great, and the other people seem lovely too, although a bit more confident perhaps than me. Oh well it's good to learn something new, it's just this is totallly different to the world of bears and wonks and craft.

Wow - this is too good. I'm sure you'll kick radio-butt!
This reminds me of an indie music show my friend and I hosted on radio in the country some years ago (before Triple J even reached regional Victoria!) and we were on the 10pm-midnight shift. It's kind of fun wondering who is still up listening to YOUR music at that hour.
Good luck!! Can't wait to hear more about it. And remember, just keep rambling... :)
