Well, as it suggests, it’s the Easter holidays for two weeks and a bit now. Last day of term was yesterday (Wed), today was an INSET day for teachers, with tomorrow being a bank holiday. I’ve got quite a bit planned for over my time off:
- Do lots of flying and controlling
- Get back to learning JavaScript so I can continue to PHP
- Learn to create sector files (already started that today)
- Get alot of work done on the Skylines Virtual Training Department
- Start work and expand upon my own Virtual Airline ideas
- Do anything else I feel needs getting done and enjoy myself!
As you can see, in theory these upcoming two weeks should be very productive within themselves, however, whether that will turn out to be the truth is a matter only time will reveal.
On another note I got my year report yesterday. As part of the new education system, the school now does the reports for the end of term before Easter. The reasoning behind this is supposedly one of teachers not finding the time to write them at the end of the school year before the summer holidays. Yet, it seems, atleast for my school, that isn’t fully true as most of my teachers think it’s utterly stupid - and I’d have to agree with them!
My report was a very good one overall, with a slight surprise coming from Technology - a predicted grade of D. How this can be determined by my teacher, I do not know. He’s been of most of the school year so far on long term sick (not that I’m implying he was exagerrating anything but I’ll add that this long term sick leave was paid for - and most of my teachers don’t even think that’s right). This coupled with the fact that I’ve only just literally started my coursework, paints the picture to me that he was talking through his arse. But what would I know?
It doesn’t bother me the slightest anyway, I never intended to take Graphic Products - aiming for Systems and Control, only to find out that they couldn’t offer me that option when I got my subjects at the end of term last year.
Well, that’s all for now, sorry I haven’t updated this in awhile - I’ve just not had much to say nor much enthusiasm to do it with.
See you next time,
Oli.
