No way, José

I have finally found something to say no to!

Since starting my course in Ballyfermot, I have actively tried to take part in everything I can. I am that mature student who puts their hand up for everything. I am making the most of every minute and doing as much as I can in the hours I have away from my responsibilities at home.

As well as my course work, I have helped out on a live TV broadcast, I did the sound recording on the filming of a concert, I’ve even appeared in a film for the SFX students. But, that day has finally come – I found something that I will not do.

I will not do RunaMuck. There is not enough money in the world nor any charity worthy enough for me to even consider doing RunaMuck. I know my limitations. But more than that, I’ve learned how to say no to things I don’t want to do and that is a great lesson to learn.
