i made it!
So I made it through the first proper week of University...go me! I'm finding it a fun challenge, completed with incoherent information, and loony lecturers. I'm so glad I did the courses with the OU, as I can actually understand what these plonkers are on about, and I really do sympathise with the nubs. So the physics based course is proving a challenge, but I'm working that, and am very proud of my progress. The chemistry bit, well, it's chemistry. This is where I'm glad I have my background knowledge.
The Biology is on a whole different level. The lecturer is a whackjob, who can't remember what the C in G A T C of DNA stands for, is absolutely enthralled by Archaea, which he pronounces differently everytime, as he does often with most other words.
I learnt a valuable lesson in a lecture today..don't doze off. The lecturer is bound to...oh, I don't know, smash a teacup as a demo just as you're getting to that disorientated stage. Never again will I let my attention wonder.
Gettin excited for December when I'll get to spend some quality time with the peeps and family back home. Hoorah. I just wish it could have been a longer a stay, but alas, school will get in the way...oh well!
