My achievement and expectations



As I said in my previous blog post, I had this burning desire to learn and implement knowledge about video animation and music production. So, I started to learn them informally or on my own. My formal and academic achievements have helped me and I believe will help in my future education in this college. 

I got e-commerce and online jobs training after high school which helped me a lot for making blogs and writing essays. I also got 2D animation training of flash which helped me a lot in Enhanced Web Development.  I did some self study of programming languages like PHP, Action Script, JavaScript, HTML, etc. and that really made a strong base for me to learn, enhance and implement my knowledge of new or same programming language that I have to study in the course. I also did self study of useful programs and software like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Audition and FL studio to use and create different graphics and music.

I have really a lot of expectations from this course of study to broaden by knowledge and skills to achieve my goals. I really expect in fulfilling my desire to learn more and achieve specific goals on the area of multimedia from this course of study.


I expect to learn about video production and audio production of course. This is my main expectation. Next I surely expect to learn about 2D and 3D animations to use my imagination and creativeness on animation videos. Since expressing ideas to colleagues and teachers increases more knowledge, I expect to find mutual co-operation among my colleagues and teachers and help each other on different issues and problems. I expect to learn different new age popular programming languages to make projects more interactive and enhanced. And finally I expect to develop more self-confidence by exposing myself through presentations and group projects.

Islington College : My Important Decision


The environment can always be chaotic. Its not in our control. The only thing we control is ourselves and our valuable resources inside us. That can be our intellects and wisdom. Well as I know I am more creative and artistic I just wanted to increase more knowledge which is formal and organized. I was always interested in graphics, animations and game designing but I only had these tips, techniques I learned from my friends and brothers. What I was lacking was this formal education where I can solve any problems for inducing my imaginations into graphics, animations etc. As I have said earlier that environment is not controllable. We can get hit by any problems in our life. We just need to increase our skills and wisdom so that we can tackle that problem. This is the main reason for me to join Islington College as multimedia student.

My name is Pramesh Shrestha. I am from Swoyambhu, Kathmandu. Currently I am in 2nd semester of my course.

When I was going through the critical point of my life where I needed to decide what should I do and where should I need to go, I had no answers. I first thought to join engineering but then I realized I wanted that because every friend of mine was going for that. I then had to observe myself and ask this question: "What I really want to do in my life?" Then came the answer. I really want to do the thing that I love. I know I loved to design computer graphics and animations. I then decided to exactly plan my future. I just searched every colleges and institution but there was still something lacking. They would not offer specialized courses. So then I came across Islington College and then I decided to join this to achieve my goal. I believe in one thing. Any goal can be achieved by learning from those who are really good in that field or have already achieved that goal.
