sarrenWe are watching the Thunderbirds movie while we have (had) dinner. There is a running gag making fun of an "ugly" woman. I am not impressed.
However, Sophia Myles plays Lady Penelope, and she is awesome, so I am still watching.
First exam went well, I think. Unit co-ordinator, who has been noticeably uncommunicative the whole semester, but had promised to be there ‘before the exam to answer any last minute questions’, wasn’t, to no one’s surprise. Past exam papers had all asked about the “key principles” of sustainability and I hadn’t been able to find any reference that specifically referred to principles – only issues, challenges and dimensions. So when we all filed in and sat down, I asked the room at large what the principles were, if it meant the dimensions, and the consensus seemed to be that it was. However, we weren’t sure, and then the invigilator said that the exam would start in one minute, I was like, ‘wait! Co-ordinator said she’d be here, and she isn’t, so can he answer my question?’ But he couldn’t! Then about fifteen minutes into the exam a very attractive young man rushed in and came up to me.
Young man – You had a question?
Me – Um, yes. Are the key principles of sustainability the social, economic and ecological dimensions?
Young man *backing away* Er, that’s one way you could answer the question!
Me – THAT’S NOT REASSURING.
Then I picked up Dad’s x-rays on the way back to work, worked the rest of the day, dropped the x-rays off at Dad’s house, came home, made dinner and collapsed.
One. More. Week.
