About Lucinda😃

Name: Lucinda Shale

Course: BA (Hons) Game Design and Production 

Year of study: 2

Why did you want to become a Division/Community Rep?

As a 2nd year Game Design and Production student, I am aware of the challenges that students in this division face. Thankfully, at Abertay, we have lecturers who truly value our feedback and aim to make improvements whenever they can. I wanted to be a part of this process to provide a student perspective, bridge the gap between students and staff, and create meaningful and long-lasting changes that support current students as well as future students studying game courses at Abertay.

What's the one piece of advice you would give to students you represent?

My advice to you is to fully embrace and immerse yourself in your journey at Abertay. Take advantage of the unique opportunities here by exploring being engaged. Don't let fear or hesitation hold you back from trying new things. By doing so, you can make a positive impact on your own life and the lives of others. Remember that your voice is valued at Abertay. Get involved, participate, and contribute your perspectives and ideas. 

 

What do you like to do in your free time? 

I will do karaoke at every available opportunity and have been a VIP member of a karaoke club in Edinburgh for around 8 years. I also really love ducks, so if you have any duck videos please send them to me at your earliest convenience. Additionally, I enjoy reading, yoga, travelling and spending time with family and friends. 

Where is your favourite spot in Dundee? 

I love the waterfront. I have an app on my phone that tells me when the sunrise and sunset are each day, so I will go down to watch them when I can. It's also a great place to run, go for a walk or read a book.

If you could magically become fluent in any language, which one would you choose and why?

I'm currently learning Italian as my partner and I are hoping to travel there at some point soon, so if I could magically become fluent tomorrow that would be great!

If you could be any fictional character for a day, who would you choose and why? 

I would want to be Percy Jackson because I love mythology and to live in a world where that activity exists would be awesome 

If you could have any superpower for a day, what would you choose and how would you use it? 

I would want to be able to fly I'd be able to travel anywhere I want and it would be so much better than walking!
