Whoops

Just realised tonight that I forgot to do a post on Wednesday night. Not much new this week, did some more on earthing, pretty much finished that unit now but I think it will require a lot of revision to remember all the regs BS.

In other news I just applied for an interesting sounding apprenticeship in a security company, installing cameras and alarms and the like. Think it could be really interesting, there were no applications as of Wednesday but I think since Andrew announced that there may be a few more now..

Anyway not much else new. I'll try to remember to update this on the day, when we are doing more interesting stuff it might be easier to remember talking about it heh.
until then have uhm.. this smiley 8D.

And so we're back... From outer space...

The holidays have gone fast and we are now back to studying dangerous stuff to be working with already. This year it will be different as I am only doing the course part time due to the February full time course being... full.

So for now I am only able to learn 3 hours a week and it will go from now until December but it should still be fun (and maybe only one post a week will be less annoying).

So we had our first evening back, usual admin starter stuff but the good news is our tutor will be Andrew who I found to be one of the top 2 tutors from last year. Always a plus especially as level 3 is a big jump up from level 2, supposedly double the workload (so maybe good thing it is only part time). Already on the first standard (earthing) it looks a bit tricky but that is mainly to do with regulation legalspeak. seems pretty simple apart from that, expanding on what we did last year.

Now the only thing still to sort at this point is studylink which for anyone who has had any dealings with them knows is not to be underestimated. Even if all I have to do is tell them my course started today and I am doing part time instead of full time.

That is all for now.. but it is just getting started....
