Hello World

Wednesday 18th Nov. 2009

Only one more week to go until Christmas break!

This week should be good though as I’ve only one last assignment to complete – my UCAS application online!
Today I had a meeting with the person in charge of the Access to Higher Education study course, and we spoke at length regarding how far I’ve come.

It’s really nice to hear from someone other than the person inside you that you are doing well and how positive my future is looking. Fair enough, I still need to sort out my time management more efficiantly, and get those deadline days in check – but considering my life in the last nine weeks – it’s like II’ve been reborn and given a second shot at succeeding!

Well, I guess I better crack on at printing out and filing my homework ready for my allowance deadlines my various tutors set for me this week…

Finally caught up with all the maths assignments I was set last week, so I’m now on the same page as everyone else (w00t!).
I can tell my tutors are impressed with the way I’ve caught up, as no doubt many o them thought I’d struggle – pfft!

I’ll continue working on my T2G assignments now I think – it’s going to be a late one tonight as I need to catch up now with this instead. Honestly, I swear I’ve set myself up for no social life what-so-ever this year.
However, on the plus side by 2012 I’ll have some awesome degree’s and I’ll have the option to take a year out of university to relax in a work placement within a gaming studio (high hopes enabled!)…

We’ll see

Got up today really tired, and almost skipped first lesson!
Note to self: Must take medication before 12am in future…

The day was good though, and my double maths lesson in the morning flew by!
Today we were told by our group tutor that we needed to start our own project at the start of next term, which will go on until June 2010!!

Thankfully I’m fairly certain what my project will be about… Game Hacking/Development of course!
Well, I’m going to stop typing here because I’m shattered and my medication is cutting in – night folks!

Another day.

Feels like I’ve been here for ages now.
Both pupils and teachers are still very supportive, and I’m getting through these assignments like there is no tomorrow!

Not long until Christmas now, so you can pretty much guarantee that there will be a hard push to get things in before then – with the possibility of receiving more course work to do over the half-term…

Still… I will try my best to keep juggling T2G with college work as well.
It’s been a busy year so far…

Assignment hand-in day!

Given in a few assignments for marking, I always love getting feedback. Whether it’s from making online communities, releasing a game hack, or telling the world my day to day activities – feedback is always a good thing!

Next week I’ll have had all my current assignments marked, and I hope to learn much from the experience as I move on through the course.
My folders are beginning to feel a lot more weighty with more content added to them almost on a daily basis!

For many this day symbolises bad luck… For me though it’s just another day at college! lol

We’ve had yet another busy week, filled with tutorials, assignments and hand-ins. It’s good though because I find myself learning how my own brain works – and habits that I’ve gotten into over the years of dealing with certain issues or problems.
It’s pretty deep, but at least there is always room for improvement, and college is certainly showing me that prioritizing workloads and managing myself efficiently is key to my success!
