It’s been a mad couple of weeks all told.
There was the rush up to Manchester to make sure all the funding for my course was sorted, it would have been simple and stress free had it not been for the time stood at the side of the M6 in the pouring rain with a non-functioning car - Andy will always be my saviour for driving down to pick us up so that I could make that appointment.
College is good so far – if you disregard the timetable cockups.
None of us were terribly impressed on Wednesday when we showed up at the uni for 9am as per instructions given to us by our course leader on Monday about a change to our lesson time..
Why were we so unimpressed? Because those instructions were supposed to have been given to a class other than ours. I was up at 5.30am in order to make the none existant 9am lesson so I was REALLY unhappy – especially as it meant I was stuck there until our actual class started at 1pm (the original time). To add insult to injury, we were given the wrong room number THREE TIMES which meant we missed the first 30 minutes of that lesson.
Thankfully it was only programming in pascal so I doubt we missed much, everyone managed to complete the class assignments with little trouble so the day didn’t feel completely wasted. I was shattered by the time I got home though – which led to a ‘bed’ day on Thursday.. Sometimes I REALLY hate having CFS.
My brain is pretty mashed though, what with converting hex to binary and octal, learning about database normalisation and trying to make sense of the ever changing timetables (bus and lecture) I’ve lost track of my virtual life, I’ve had no time to catch my breath and blog, no time to respond to tweets and that part I’m not liking..
It’s going to take me a while to adjust to this change, I already know something has to give with all these new claims on my limited energy supplies so I’m having to lose twitter for a while, thankfully most of my contacts have added me on facebook so I can still keep ‘in touch’ but I’m out of the loop on ‘as it happens’ news. Hopefully once I get my head around all this new information I can open up my feeds again and venture back into the twitterstream, but for now.. My heads about to explode and twitter is just TMI! :cry:
Meh, I’ll catch up. *grin* if nothing else this course will teach me to prioritise :lol:

Pascal? Now you know how I felt about taking Cobol.
