This last week since the 3rd of October has been extremely busy - I'm grateful that the first week's work wasn't too strenuous!
With a bake sale to organise single handedly as well as for which to bake (which went extremely well and we raised over £200!), a martial arts grading and drama club rehearsals throughout the week, alongside everything else, I'm starting to worry how I'll fit everything in in future - only so many hours in a day!
That said, I'm enjoying the work and the way the course is structured with a checklist to keep track of everything has been a godsend. The course material is interesting and engaging and I'm so glad to still be able to study philosophy in this weird limbo year between highers and uni that is 6th year. Inverness' freerunning class has a 'jam' today so week 2's studies will have to wait until later today!
Might use this blog every once in a while as a way of keeping a record of this year; of course if all I post is boring stuff like this then there will be no point!

It wasn't boaring at all. I like the new layout particularly I can access all the vids and exercises more easily. I also like the the fact that I haven't all the clutter of extra dvd's e.t.c and trying to work out which ones which. Well done with the bake sale. What are highers?
Sorry I only just saw your comment now!
Still getting used to how all this works...
It's a great layout I agree, something so satisfying about ticking off those little boxes. I'm afraid I've had no experience of any previous layout though!
Thank you so much, it was stressful but all came together in the end! Had loads of help from lovely people. Highers are the Scottish equivalent of English A/AS levels (somewhere in that region) and if taking 5 of them they are a nightmare. The fact that my year was going through the new 'curriculum for excellence' highers didn't help!

Ouch! Where you doing the highers at the same time you did your degree then? That must of been very hard work! Well done to you 😊

Nah, fortunately highers are done and dusted and my OU course is only a year long! Thank you though, what are you studying?

It's boggling my mind a bit at the minute. I'll get there though!
