First Couple of Weeks at Uni
Well, it has been a while since the last blog post but not as long as before 
Just thought I'd write a quick (which could yet become long) blog post about my experiences of the first week of uni! I have just started my first year at Portsmouth University studying Digital Forensics Bsc (Hons). The course looked great in the prospectus, and the rest of the course content that supports the digital forensics work looks great too.
I started last Monday 27th September. The first week was, obviously, Freshers Week. This meant a lot of boring lectures about how the uni works and a few slightly more interesting lectures introducing each section of the course and then came the real fun... Freshers Fayre. This involved lots of freebies, a bar, and even free Domino's pizza 
It was at the Freshers Fayre that I found out about the Mountain Biking Society. For just £45 I could join the society for the year and go out riding with an enthusiastic group of people and even get involved in some Cross Country (XC) racing if I decide I like the look of it. Will let you know more about my experiences with that after my first ride on Wednesday 
Python Programming
The week just gone was much better than the first week as we actually got down to some proper work. And it was nice and easy to break us in gently! Can't remember the precise order in which everything happened but these are the lectures I had:
- Introduction to Structured Programming - aka Python
- Computer Organisation - And no that isn't keeping all your files in well organised folders
- Digital Forensics - Kinda obviously!
- Web Authoring & Design - Better than I thought it would be actually!
- Social Aspects of Computing - So we are learning about Facebook... :\
That list wasn't in any particular order I might add. Well apart from Social Aspects of Computing... That definitely comes in last for me but it is only a 1 hour exam which is predominantly multiple choice questions and a couple of short questions done on a computer.
Anyway I don't plan on blogging on for too long this time, I am supposed to be studying after all, so I shall blog again soon
