Change of topic

I have been a bit busy reading my course stuff over the past week or so. So busy in fact that I even forgot to update my blog on the usual "update Sunday"-day.
Doing the reading or the course has been a bit of a mixed blessing. It is not the most exciting of reading that I have to do. It is business like and a bit dry. I had kind of forgotten that proper academic/study books are like that. However, it is nice to be doing something, learning new things. I like knowledge and learning new things, it does not scare me too much to have to dive in and see how I will cope with it. I'm doing okay, getting the scheduled pages done (Yes - I did do a study plan, why leave it to chance!) and have only had a few moments where I have thought "what the heck do they mean?". I have had a few instances of "why did they not structure this chapter differently", or "why are they mentioning this term now when they only properly explain it 6 pages down the road"... but I guess that is to be expected.
I am doing my project summary this weekend to see if my idea of what project to submit is okay. I just completed my first big one successfully and feeling justly proud of that I was going to use that one as my special friend for the rest of the course.

Still no other reading done.. .don't think I will be doing much reading other than for the course to be honest. Working during the day and spending about an hours or so every night doing my course work is keeping me plenty busy. Might give myself tomorrow off... all work and no play and all that.

One conclusion I have reached is that the study of Feasibility - technical and financial, is greatly improved by a glass of red wine! Classic combination!
