Moonlighting

Hello Habiteers, long time no speak.

Just a quick note to let you know that I've started contributing to the rather excellent Twohundredpercent. My first contribution is here.

Book one - now available as two books...

And the first package of year two of my OU course has turned up.

The preparation booklet is nice and small, and I'll read that later in the week. There are two DVDs and three CDs are no problem. There is a study guide book, advising which areas you should work on each week - which would have been handy last year. The workbook is about the size of three of last years (and to be honest - it covers the same time spell). The 600 page study book is so big, they've split it into two books. But still called them both "Book 1". On top of that there's a 400 page methods book. And I almost forgot the 80 page booklet about the software you need for the course. Yes, it's big and heavy and daunting and fuck it, it's exciting.

The accompanying letter also told me not to worry if there didn't seem to be enough - the rest arrives in January. Phew, I was kind of thiking 1200 pages of material might not be enough.

I also never told you lot (I need to come up with a name for you guys out there reading this - habiteers sounds good) that I had the score for my last assignment through - and it was 80%. Go me.

Pass!

Okay, I know I've been a bit neglectful, but blogger's still shite with Opera, and I've been . I'll post a few things over the weekend, especially as it's almost the start of the season.

One bit of news I have had, though, is that I've passed my first year at the Open University - with a higher mark than expected. So, I've either had a few assignments re-marked higher than orginally - or I've blown my previous best score out of the water. Especially as the mark for the year is higher than what I was led to believe was my highest mark for the rest of the year.

Go Me!
