20% of 100% and 100% of nothing

Visible to anyone in the world

Progress?  Guess so.

20% properly completed.  Nothing more to do there. 

But the remaining 80% is sort of the whole assignment, in a way.  It's the big question.

The 100% of nothing is the appendix.  That's done.

I'm not sure how well I'm doing here, but I get the feeling I could be doing better.  Perhaps if I'd finished the S3 assignment by 31st March and started this one on 1st April as planned, I'd be doing better.  Stupid to make such ridiculously sensible and well thought-out plans and put them in writing.  Typing.  It only serves to remind me how unnecessarily difficult I make life at times. 

I still haven't been to the pub.  I'm not happy about all this sunny pub time I've spent indoors.  Not to be morbid, but if I was to die tomorrow after handing this in, and was able to come back and see myself now, I'd be mortified at having spent my last few days missing out on all the fun.  On the other hand if I live for another 20 years and this course results in me starting my little business then I will gain significantly more days in the pub overall by having a better income.  So really, it's not about the stress, or the work, or the pub, or any of the stuff I'm worrying and grumbling about.  It's a question of how long I've got as compared to how hard I work. 

Whatever, I bet it's raining on Saturday. 

As a rule I prefer the rain, but I'm conscious that I haven't had any vitamin D doses of late.  I took a cod liver oil tablet earlier.  The bricks and mortar uni student sits in the sun and absorbs the vitamin D from the sun.  The OU student sits infront of the laptop and swallows cod liver oil tablets.  And even so, I still would choose the OU.  Going to have a little break and then get the other 80% a little structured.  Then a break, then all through the night until I'm happy.  Then I'll remember the references.....
