[quote="Greg"]Easter break? That sounds like undergraduate talk to me![/quote]

:*( I'm an undergrad and I still don't get one. Data analysis is going well though and I'm hoping to be done with it by tonight ^_^. That then gives me up until the 20th to write the thing up, which is still tons of time, even if I take the Easter Weekend off O:)

We get a half day on Good Friday and then we get to go home for Easter weekend. =D>

I have been doing well in my courses. It's nice to be back on here again. However, I have a little trouble with my 18th Century Literature course. If there is anyone who has read Moll Flanders and can help me with that book it would be much appreciated! It's hard to read and I have trouble with the comprehension because of the old style language!

Hi Everyone,
I have nearly finished my PGCE at the University of Bolton. I was teaching the Politics of Disablity on the Community Studies Degree at Bolton Uni and Community and Yoputh Work at Manchster Uni.

My course has gone relitavly smoothly. I ask for an extension for assignments if I need one. The course is not as accademic as a first degree but much more intensive and needs coping strategies with organisation to plan lessons and write assignments as the modules are parallell with the teaching. I also have to rember to turn up at the right time at the right place on the right day. I print out my palm poilet callander for the moth and stick it on the wall which works for me.
I have a level 2 numeracy exam on May 24th which Im not confident about.
In september 2008 I have aplace on the MA disability studies at the University of Leeds Hopfully I will get a Scolarship to pay my Fees.

You could blame any dyspraxic behaviour at the wedding for still having alchol in your blood stream from the hen night.

Seems it's that "completed work" time of the year.

I just gave a 15min presentation that was the sole assessment for 4 months of work. How is it that they do that? I was so nervous :S
