Journalistic Exposure

As part of the ongoing saga of the OUSU referendum campaign, I was asked to give a comment to the Oxford Student, one of the student newspapers. The picture (one of Abi's favourites) hasn't turned out badly, but the editor did somewhat hack away at the piece I originally wrote ("It took five motions..." doesn't even make sense in the context! It was supposed to be "I took five motions..."). Still, slight annoyance at that aside it is my first real piece of journalistic exposure for something I've said, so here's a link for all to see:

OUSU Under Fire

Don't worry, I will try to give some idea of the context later (hopefully without boring readers to tears).

Work Timetable - Week 5

I got less done this week. Basically after a stressful time I took most of the weekend off, going to fireworks with Abi Sat evening and staying over my house before coming back on Sun. Then there was a JCR meeting that night...
The other main reason is the massive campaign to change OUSU which I became a member of (and which I will detail here in a few days time when I have met deadlines). It has taken up a lot of my time this past week in particular. OUSU Council on Friday for example lasted 4h 30mins, and so meant that when I got back to Ab I was far beyond any work. So I watched Minority Report with Abi instead. :-)

I submitted this to Hertford's gossip magazine, Simpkins (www.freewebs.com/simpkinsmagazine). They put it on the back cover. Hee hee!
