The quiz was worth 20% of the overall mark. The first two assignments (an individual and then a group response) are worth 60% and I already got a D for the individual and I'm pretty sure we will get at least that with the group one. The second assignment was a lesson plan and it was worth 20% too and I am pretty confident that I will get a good mark for that too. I'm not feeling as bummed today about it - whatever will be will be and all that. I think it was more the fact that we were allowed two goes and could copy the questions so we had a week to revise and study and I still didn't get a brilliant mark.
Oooohhhh JM! Chocolates and a motel room. I did that too when I went to Canberra - brought some yummy chocolates and ate them while sitting on the bed watching TV. So does that mean you are on your way here or here already?
Cass, A hates the beach, I think it is because the sand moves under his feet when he's in the water.
MD, I have gotten in the habit of asking him if he needs to go before we go in, but if we do get caught out, at least I can do the same and leave the trolley near the checkouts, and then go outside - best bit about having a boy is that I can just find the nearest tree LOL otherwise the nearest toilets to the supermarket are across the road in the the park.
Trill, by D I am assuming distinction and not a fail D? You should be alright then. I agree about the boys being handy when it comes to emergency toilet stops. I am not sure what happens with girls - the girl bits aren't as user friendly for roadside peeing.
MD, are rhododendron's not around over there? I thought they were a universal type plant? So far he can name the rhodies, Magnolias and Kowhai trees, which is about the limit of my knowledge on the topic anyway. I am wondering if a sudden interest in gardening is a red flag for the approach of middle age?
I have never heard of Te Puna but I wouldn't expect anything from our local library. It is mainly a wireless hotspot for tourists with laptops and then there are about 10 shelves of outdated books. I have a sci-fi/fantasy collection bigger than the libraries lol. My uni is very good though, about 1/3 of the students are extramural and they are very fast if you request an article. There is also a massive online database of a bazillion journals etc from the mid 70's forward.
And I actually laughed out loud about the bumhole prolapse!
Cass, sound lovely! I am so excited about beach weather. Not likely to see any whales or dolphins around here but it is still fun.
What do girl mums call the girl bits? I find vagina too....technical? for kids but I don't want something too babyish like weewee kwim?
If anyone is looking for a bit of a laugh, read the Brazilian thread in the Boo Hoo room.
Yeah, D is distinction and not D for dunce LOL. We somehow got into the habit when E was little to call it a mare-mare and I have no idea why it was called that, but when she got a bit older it was vagina. I sorta agree that it's a bit technical but other than 'vuh-jay-jay' as favoured by Oprah there isn't really much else you can call it LOL
hmmm maybe we will have to bite the bullet and go with vagina...
BTW I forgot to say WooHoo Sas! She is waaaay young for TT! That is very clever. And it must be nice for you JM, not having to deal with dirty nappies when you are feeling like arse.
there isn't really much else you can call it LOL
