This Is A Sterile Area! Please Wash Your Hands!


I managed to get some sleep last night, not as much as I'd have liked, but I got some. I know I did because I woke up remembering something I'd dreamt. I had a really busy day yesterday, so if I hadn't slept, it would have made today difficult, that's for sure. Still waiting to hear back from the University regarding how I did in my assessment. I'd have liked to spend more time on it, but there simply wasn't any time. One week was all we had really. I'm sure Ill do alright mind you. I'd be very unpleasantly surprised if I haven't.

Network problems still abound at the school. It has made things harder than they should be, but we're getting through it reasonably well. Today we were building pc's, so they enjoyed that, and there are more to be made tomorrow. It makes a nice change. It's been a while since I put a pc together, but let's face it, it's not that difficult is it?

One of my major concerns is just how exactly I'm going to get through these four weeks without catching something. Contagion is rampant among the pupils, with many of them spluttering and coughing. A quarantined area needs to be set up for those afflicted (joke). Even worse is the Winter sickness bug. Scary stuff! I know why they're in school though. Both parents working, no where else to go. A parent will take a day off for their child, but they can't spare more than that, so the sickly child must return to school posthaste. That's just a fact of modern living isn't it? In fact, more than likely, the parent is "the parent" as opposed to one of the parents! C'est la vie!
