Indesign Headache

For our 'PEP160' Unit we were required to make our own mock up magazine spread using stories that we had previously shot. The first page must include an establishing image and headline etc, with further continuation of the story on the next page.
Now I don't like using InDesign at the best of times, I'm not particularly confident on the program. We have had fortnightly training sessions on the program however I have found these completely irrelevant due to the combination of a Indesign tutor that doesn't seem to like people, and a hot stuffy room which makes concentration impossible.
The lessons with Dave White have been much more useful, gaining inspiration from sites like Issuu, however this doesn't help with the technical side of things.
Add this to the fact I am as about a good graphic designer as I am dancer and you get one unhappy Campbell.

Anyway this is what I have produced today.
