I did another four days at Refurbiz last week. Was completely shattered by Thursday and developed a pain all down my neck and shoulder on the right. Still have it actually. I think it's because I had...how all you full time working people do it, work and still have a life. I get home after five ours at Refurbiz and just slump in front of Facebook or the TV, my reading time has gone out the window.
I tipped coffee on my lovely un-cheap ergonomic keyboard yesterday. I've never done it before, not since owning my first Amstrad in the 80's. I've had to order another one straightaway as it's really...head around Shakespeare. I've been learning about Quantum Mechanics, reading up on it and watching programmes on Youtube (give thanks for YouTube, Amen) so it'll be hard to reattune my brain lol.
Wanted to just post and show off my latest scrapping storage solution. Take one DVD storage box, copious amounts of ribbon, one hole punch tool. Voila! Makes it much easier to find what I...has but I haven't. I'm thinking of reporting it as a missing person. However, I shall send you a copy of it as you asked. I'm still so very close to telling the OU what they can do with their exam
Well I signed up for the Open University this morning, just a little course to get a taster, but its from their openings programme and should hopefully lead to access to a wider diploma in the long run...60 points. I just need to do something to help get a path because I don’t want to get stranded in a career dead-end , and as an admin body I feel that I have reached as far as I can get at the moment
My course starts in five days. I'm looking through all the stuff I have to do and am wondering if I'm going to be able to keep up. I'm going to have to make myself a little study timetable. I've just emailed...started with Pride and Prejudice , then Tipping the Velvet , and we're currently watching Fingersmith , these three being the only period dramas I own. Next up will be Middlemarch (with Rufus Sewell!
I can't believe it's nearly a month since I last posted anything. I finished by OU course last week - managed to submit the End of Course Assignment 3 days early. This meant that I had a few days spare...treated myself to another software programme last Monday - Ultra Fractal 5.01. I'm fascinated by fractals! These are some of the results of my efforts at getting to grips with the programme.
How to fix the developing world for sixty million dollars - based on the Open University model. Another provocative post from Vinay Gupta, the Hexyurt guy.
I finished another chapter of "Prisoner"! Here it is! It always feels like I've just finished a marathon when I finish posting a new chapter. (Not that I've ever run one to find out!). Of course now...difficulty in finding inspiration is that I'd quite like to try doing something a bit lighter this time, but have absolutely no idea if I'm capable of anything like that. I suppose time will tell..
Беседовал вчера с одним студентом на отвлечённую тему, он по сетям "автомат" получил в этом году (15 человек из примерно 200). Речь зашла о системах управления сетью, HP OV и всё такое. Так вот, для него...SNMP" или "о SNMP"? Я вот пишу "как слышится", т.е. после предлога там как бы "Эсэнэмпи", но на письме ведь чётко видна согласная :) update : Отбой, я всё перепутал — у него не было "автомата" ;-)
