Not done much on Unit 5 since my last post, work has started to pick up again and seems to be full steam ahead, plus a bit of Christmas shopping was needed to be done. But have managed to get up to subsection 3 so almost halfway there, and with the planner on my OU homepage i'm still ahead and on track to get Unit 5 and most of Unit 6 done before xmas, hoping to have an extended xmas break. Got a trip to London on the 19th so hopefully will all be done for then, also got a day off on the 8th so can spend majority of this day doing some study, weather permitting might try to fit in 9 holes of golf.
Finally got my result for TMA 01, felt like was waitng an eternity for it, suppose that was due to me handing it in early for a change lol, but was worth the wait. Was very happy with a 93 and some of the comments my tutor made on it, hopefully my good marks will continue. Have completed iCMA 42, struggled with a few bits on it but hopefully will have done ok with it, I think at some point I thought I was doing the practice quiz and had another chance to answer, but think it went okay will just have to wait and see in my result.
As said work has started to pick up again now and getting more and more work coming in so hopefully it will continue. Still don't think this is a long term job for me, been doing a few extensions for friends and i enjoy doing more constructional stuff more than what I'm doing at the minute, so think once I have got christmas out the way will start to look and see what jobs are out there, had the dilemma of being offered an interview for a structural engineering company last week, but turned it down due to me feeling that 2 and a half months isn't long enough for me to have tried this job long enough and also with me doing a civil's degree I think it best I try and get a job in civil's.
Will hopefully get the chance to do few more posts before the break, looking forward to what the next few units have to offer.
