The course seems to be a perfect pick. There is pretty much work for us all ahead (see alone the material they gave us to read, and there is more material to follow and assignments to fulfill) and the group, with all in all 13 students, seems to be very nice (see some of them in the nice courtyard of our school having lunch). 
The very first day was very promissing. Our teacher Andrew did an excellent job by introducing us all into the (rather strict) rules of the school and how our assigments and exams will be graded in the end. He then dived right into journalism. Always coming back to former students of the LSJ. Some of them did an excellent job during the course and got themselves interesting jobs afterwards.
Today we learned how a propper news has to be written and how stories can be found nearly everywhere. Just look into a map of London or peep over a wall. Keep your eyes and ears open. Don't be shy as nothing worse can happen as that people refuse to speak with you, were just some out of plenty advises he gave us.
New to me was that PR and marketing is refered to as "dark arts." Speaking of dark. Have to go to bed now as there is some work to be done tomorrow morning before school starts again. Treated myself with a (free) preview show of the film Hot Tub Time Machine tonight. Quite fun, but a bit filthy too.
