I met Matthew at a Lincoln Uni Open Day. We are both members of the Journalsim course and after lunch we were some what lost but we recognised each other so started talking.
I found out that Matthew is 19 and from Suffolk, he took a gap year after college where he achieved A levels in Media, History and English Lit as well as ICT. He works at M&S where he has to get up between 5 and 6 am.
He is into F1 and Kimi Raikkonen is his favourite driver. He also enjoys his music and likes jazz as well as metal, he enjoys films and would like to ultimately amke his own films one day. He does alot of writing and is capble in all forms of writing and finds it enjoyable.
Owns a mimi although he hasn't passed his test and is on Facebook although he doesnt use it regularly and doesnt like the fact that his room is half decorated!
This is a portrayal of the man who is sitting next to me.

Hannah, Cambridge
today at lincoln open day, making friends was easy. i met two new people, Karen from nottingham and Rachel from south east london. they share similar interests in that we all like music however our individual tastes in bands caused some debate-both Rachel and Karen are into Mcfly, but Rachel and I both agreed that Maximo Park are pretty awesome.
on the topic of work, i discovered that Karen works in Primark and Rachel works in the Royal Albert Hall in London as bar staff.
both Rachel and Karen are into films but again. there was so controversy over which films were good. Karen suggested Pirates of the Caribbean, but the expression Rachel gave in response suggested that she didnt agree, however when i asked what films she did like she just said everything.
so although we have different interests, we still have things in common such as going to gigs and meeting friends, so i didnt need to worry about having to eat lunch alone or have no one to talk to because Lincoln uni seems to be a really friendly place :D

Visiting the open day at Lincoln Uni, I was worried that I wouldn't find anyone with the same interests as me. However, doing the Journalism workshops I found 2 girls; Hannah from Cambridge and Karen from Nottingham who I found have a lot in common with me :D. Hannah likes Indie/Rock music like me whereas Karen likes pop. We all enjoy going to gigs and seeing friends. What I loved was finding a fellow McFly fan, Karen who isn't embarrassed to say they love them haha. I look forward to starting Uni in September, getting to know them better and having fun doing Journalism together. Ciao for now :)
Matt, from Suffolk
I met Adam outside the EMMTEC building after a rather tasty lunch on Lincoln Uni’s Applicants Open Day. Both a touch lost, we struck off together to find our next workshop. Finding ourselves sitting next to each other, we started talking.
Adam hails from Rutland, where he attends Rutland College's Sixth Form. There he studies AS Levels in Media, 20th Century History, English Literature and English Language. He's planning on coming to Lincoln to fulfill his ambitions of becoming a sports journalist. See, his passions center around sports; football in particular. He's been refereeing since the age of 14, and is a supporter of Liverpool.
A fan of music, he listens to a lot of indie and metal; bands like Papa Roach and Foo Fighters tickle his fancy.
Adam's passed his driving test and currently drives a Peaugeot 106, a true beast of a car (hey, I drive a Mini, I'm allowed to take the mickey!).
As appears to be a requirement these days, he's on Facebook, though only uses it when the constant emails start to bug him.
That then, is a snapshot of the man sitting next to me!

Fenton, Middlesbrough
Chris is eighteen and is from nearby Sleaford, around twenty miles from Lincoln. After leaving Lincoln Chris hopes to go onto be a journalist. This interests him as he welcomes the opportunity to travel and meet new people. He is currently studying History, Geography and English Language A2's. His main interests include football and music, he supports Man Utd and likes most music with the exception of rap. He hopes to go to Lincoln because it is recognised as being a good place to study journalism and it is relatively close to his home so is easily accessible for him although he wants to move to Lincoln when he starts University.
Stacey, Essex
Today I met with Anna Keeping, an 18 year old from the Sleaford area who joined me on todays open day to find out more about the Journalism course. She's currently studying Sociology, Psychology and English language and literature. The latter of which I've also studied and failed misrebly at. She's hoping to end up working in newspapers and is interested in journalism in all its areas
Aside from her studies, Anna is a keen fashion follower and lists Topshop and New Look as her favourite shops. When she's not browsing the rails, she's listening to a varied collection of music. where Kate Nash takes pride of place.

Jennifer - North Yorkshire
Today I spoke to Holly who is also hoping to to Journalism at Lincoln this year. Holly's aged twenty and has taken two years out before deciding on coming to study here. One of the reasons for this was that she didn't know if it was what she wanted to do, feeling the pressures of sixth form life and not wanting to make the wrong decision. For her A-levels she studied English Literature, Media Studies and History as well as French at AS level. After attending an open day for Lincoln two years ago she felt that this would be where she wanted to go if she did decide to attened university in the future.
During Holly's time out of education she went to Denmark for a year, where her family are originally from. Whilst she was there she worked with underprivlidged and orphaned children, aged between three and eight, teaching them conversational english as well as helping to build their confidence. In her second year out she has been spending her time working to gain some money to help finance her time at university so that she doesn't end up 'in the shit'.
In her spare time Holly enjoys going to raves whilst defying the stereotypes of the strong drug presence by being completely anti-drugs.

A quick convo with Jennifer from Richmond in North Yorks completely helped to ease the open day stress. Finally! someone else who's here on their own today...not that we're unfamiliar with Lincoln...Jennifer has a cousin who lives here and you know, I'm a local! lol! She studies Film Studies, Media and English Language A Levels at college in Darlington and is looking at Teeside as well as Lincoln to study Journalism....she assures me that even though at Teeside the course is labelled "MultiMedia Journalism"...it's essentially the same thing!
In regards to films, Jennifer really likes directors such as Tarantino, Tim Burton and David Lynch...can't say I'm overly keen on Tarantino but love love love Tim Burton! Having studied Media at A Level, I can relate to the sort of gritty, British realism films that Jennifer likes and can relate to the dislike and, for want of a better word hate, "Americanised" British films such as Bridget Jones which whilst funny is mind-numbing and totally unrealistic.
The Mirror - - - At only 18, Jennifer is going completely in the right direction by undertaking work experience at The Mirror newspaper in the summer! Not paid = bad times. Two weeks in london = good times. Sorry Justin Lee Collins!!!!! :)

Josh from Barnack near Stamford is currently studying History and RE at 6th form. He is interested in doing Journalism at Lincoln University and ever since a young age has been reading newspapers and has recently done work experience within the media industry to get a taste of what being a journalist is really like. Josh enjoys writing about general things instead of just specific subjects. The choice of Lincoln university was made due to the fact that Lincoln has some of the best courses for Journalism and also is the only English university to have it's own legal radio show that is played on air to the Lincolnshire community. Outside of the educational area, Josh enjoys spending time with his friends and going out.
Josh, from Stamford
Rachel from Potter Hamworth just outside of lincoln, has been here today, she is a sixth form student studying Enlish Literature, Travel and Tourism and Business Studies. Rachel chose Lincoln university for a number of reasons, firstly she is close to family and home thus there is no need for accomodation, also her brother came and really enjoyed himself. Journalism course caught her eye because all the other types of course did not seem very enjoyable, Journalism looked like fun. Rachel also has an interest in golf playing for both Lincolnshire girls and Ladies teams, with a handicap of 5, she also enjoys going out with mates clubbing.
Stephanie, Nottingham
Talking to Daisy I discovered that she is interested in doing a joint honours degree combining journalism with PR with a view to becoming a travel writer. After taking a year out after completing her A-levels Daisy is excited about coming to Lincoln University as she not only appreciates the features of the city, but having two of her friends already studying at Lincoln, she has been given a very positive insight into what life is like in Lincoln.
Dasiy had looked at Universities local to where she lives in Norwich, but decided on studying at Lincoln after seeing how modern the University was and all that it has to offer.
Daisy has an interest in travel and would like to work with charities in less economically developed countries as she feels that this would help her with her travel writing and her writings about poverty, another subject which she wishes to cover in her writing.
For the past year Daisy has been working and is currently working 50 hours a week at a local hotel where she sets up functions, works at the bar and is a waitress. Although she finds the job enjoyable, it has made her more motivated for coming to University after being undecided about whether or not to apply in order for her to improve her future career aspects.

Jennifer - Runcorn
Martin;
Lives and studies in Cambridge. Currently surveying the subjects Englsih, Computing and History A levels; works in a supermarket and funnily enough has family that live in the same area as myself. Infact two groves over to my own home. (Small world)
He's just past his driving test, which he is really chuffed about- saying it proudly and smiling (lack of a provisional myself- therefore impressed at his own driving achievement). He's been to New York a couple of years ago, discussing the harrasment of people upon the streets (sorry sidewalk) and how they kept trying to sell him empty CD cases: Martin cannot be conned.
Alas, I doubt anyone bought them- if they did, well it would be the American's right?
Now I'm thinking I should have asked him what football team he supported and millions of other questions (note Martin's interogative skills as I am sure he knows more about me). Then We both turn to each other- "What was your name again?"
You'd think it've been the answer we would have remembered.
He wants to write novels but admits he hasn't read a book in ages- I confess I also have been reading the same George Orwell book since the Christmas before last.
He lives with his parents in Cambridge- they moved down South after they were about 30, his aunties and Grandparents still living in Runcorn. he is tall with brown hair and brown eyes, seems like a down-to-earth type of guy .
Mission?- failed, I seem to have gobbled on about myself rather than grueling information out of my interviewee.
Oh and I almost forget he is doing joint Journalism with English.

Jenny, who is sitting behind me, is from Runcorn in Chesire which by coincidence is where the whole of my extended family hail from, she even lives round the corner from my auntie! Some of her family have moved from Chesire down south to Southampton.
She studies at riverside college in Runcorn and is looking to do a joint course in Journalism and Media culture at Lincoln. In prepartion for this she currently does A levels in English, Media and Photography.
Earlier this year she was part of a college trip to New York where she had an incident on the Subway which resulted in her being harassed in Harlem, bad times.
Jenny has previously used blogs on Myspace making her more of an expert than I.

Siobhan, Kettering
Fraser, Norwich in Norfolk
Fraser is planning to study History with Journalism. His A-Levels are very diverse ranging from English literature to Photography. He chose History because this would give him a firm base of knowledge and context of which to write for newspapers in the future, and photography as a practical feature to show he has many different skills when it comes to gathering information and displaying it.
He appears to be completely mad about Bloc Party and when I asked him why he liked them he replied "Don't get me started!" Like he could go on for hours, which says it all really. He achieved very high grades in his History modules, which is really quite astounding as it's actually a super hard subject.
So far, he really likes Lincoln because it's so new and 'fresh', which I quite agree with.

I met Stephanie from Nottingham today. She is currently completing college, where she has been studying BTEC Tourism.
Stephanie and I have the same interests in that we both have the same ambitions to become a travel writer, or fail that to hopefully be able to report on global issues such as poverty, crime, and less economically developed countries. Lincoln University appealed to Stephanie because of the architecture and culture and thinks it will be extremely helpful studying Journalism within such a beautiful city.
Lincoln has always been a favourite University to eventually come to for her, as it is fairly close to her home town, however, not on her doorstep. This means that it will be an incredible life changing experience for her.
Stephanie wants to become a writer of the future, writing on important matters throughout the world, that will actually be meaningful to another person.

Luke from Nottingham
Rebecca from Southport, already much more accomplished and seems to lead a much more interesting life than myself!
She is from North America and moved here, then back again, and now here again because the education system was...not the best (she said that not me). She now studies both English Language and Literature along with Classics and Greek in her A-level subjects. She is persuing a career in P.R and has had this passion for journalism since, quote, "I was about two". If that still isnt interesting enough she has just recorded a video for an American rap artist, she is a professional break-dancer!
I happen to know that she hates camping and screamo shouting mental music (we got on the subject of Leeds Festival after she spotted last years wristband still on my wrist) and I have to say i feel exactly the same.
I think Rebecca has the drive to achieve any goal she wishes and I hope to see her here next year so, to her, good luck! x

Luke is from Nottingham and has decided to study Journalism with English in order to pursue a career as an English Teacher. At the mintue he is taking English language, sociology and Drama, but enjoys one out of the three. He chose Lincoln as it is far enough from his parents, but just close enough for a ride home. He is also looking forward to starting a new experience. Luke has a varied taste in music and after noticing his writsband saw that he has attended Leeds festival for the past few years now. His favourtie performance was from the Killers and also enjoyed 50 cent. He has a dislike for 'screaming' music but a love for football and plays for his local team. Luke has a good personality for teaching and will hopefully suceed in the future.

Louise from london and Adrienne from Kent have both come to Lincoln uni today to get a taste of what the school of journalism is like. Both are looking to do a joint degree, Louise combining with advertising and Adrienne with media, both great choices !
Both girls have come from all girls 6th form backgrounds, so Lincoln uni will be a change for the two of them !
Loiuse is still making decisions on future career prospects, Adrienne on the other hand is looking at a career in print journalism, and is adament that been in front of a camara or talking on the radio is not something that intrests her.

Louise and Adrienne have slight worries about budgeting and finance issues, and the fear that once recieving student loans, it dissapears all to quickly !

Fraser Barratt - Norwich, Norfolk
Siobhan, from Kettering in Northhaptonshire, is planning to study Journalism and Advetising at Lincoln University. Despite struggling with the blogging site, a problem that was soon remedyed, she is firm in her aspirations to become a journalist, favouring print.
She is currently studying English Language, Phycology and Accounts at A level, all giving an important array of knowledge that will be of great use as a journalist. English, teaching the basic disciplines of writing and phycology giving a great insight into the thoughts and motives of any given character. Even accounting although not a classically media based subject has its uses, giving her a knowledege of buisness, which may become useful for certain articles.
Sionhan's love of music was a great factor in deciding to concentrate on journalism, with her first experience of reporting being when she wrote a piece after watching the Finnish band 'Disco Onsomble'. She decided to send the article to the band themselves and after recieving favourable feedback her fate to become a journalist was seiled.
Siobhan has so far enjoyed her visit to Lincoln, admiring the crisp and fresh modern architecture and the vibrant feel of the campus. The combination she has picked means that she will have a 'wider scope' for gaining knowledge in multiple fields, so increaing her ability in the filed of journalism.
This means that we may all have the pleasure of seeing her again in September.

Earlier today, I met 27 year old Kerry and 18 year old Louise.
Kerry feels as though she has lived her life back to front as she is a mother to a 7 year old son and has had previous experience in working as a print journalist. She has now returned to University to further her existing knowledge in journalism and is hoping to pursue a combined honours degree with English Literature, aiming towards becoming a sports journalist. Kerry also lives in the Lincoln area, making it easier to commute.
Louise currently attends an all girls sixth form in London, completing her A2 levels in English, Media and Sociology. Louise similarly wishes to pursue a combined honours in Advertising. Althoughshe is still undecided about which career path to continue down, she believes that the experience of studying a joint degree will shape her thoughts.
