08/11/17 Update - A Productive Day (Until 3:15...) I had a very clear plan of what I wanted to achieve today and I managed it for the most part. So I started with 7AM get up ready to be in college by 8, I had to get a lift again because 4 bus strikes apparently wasn't enough. My day then started with a very generic assembly on interview skills which was fairly engaging but nearing the end of the 45 minutes it got quite repetitive.
I then had two free hours, I distanced myself from my friends for once to go get a computer and do some work. Due to how full our college is I managed to not get a space on a proper computer and was therefore lumbered with a rather awful Toshiba laptop that was operating at snails pace.
Regardless of this, after dancing around starting writing for a solid half hour I began to start writing out a testing plan for my Computer Science coursework project. I didn't know what I set out to do when I started but my test plan started come to together by the end.
Then because I of course hadn't already had enough of Computer Science for today, I had a Computer Science test third period! The cover teacher wasn't actually going to give it to me (I was the only person left to do it in the class) he was going to just let us get on with coursework but since I'd mentally prepared myself for this test for the second time by this point, I asked to do it until he gave it to me.
The test was alright, it was only an end of topic mock about Computer Networks. There were some rather ambiguous questions in there however but I just attempted to answer all 45 marks worth of question in the hour and handed it in. I've never done a test in such awful conditions though as the rest of the class (and the teacher!) were just having a chat, so I found it near impossible to focus.
Then after a Domino's lunch (healthy I know
) I had Maths in which we had a rather odd seeming investigation lesson about converging iterative sequences. And finally a Further Maths lesson where we did a few Mechanics 2 questions about kinematics with variable acceleration, fun fun fun! Now have a picture of my Maths and Further Maths room as I spent 10 hours of my week in here, sat in this exact seat, and you therefore deserve to see it.
I've felt kinda off all day but after college I started to feel worse.
So I took the night to try and relax despite feeling rather ropey. I figured I deserve to chill since I've worked myself very hard lately so the least I can do for my health is stop working when I feel ill.
3 hours in my Maths room again tomorrow with Maths and Double Further Maths! But I'm skipping form (what a rebel) so I at least get a lie in because I think I need it.
Until then,
