Thwarted
S186 done & dusted, with the ECA submitted with about, oh, 5 minutes to spare. I think that’s a record for me in the “cutting it close” department. Enjoyed the course up to a point – the subject and course material I found fascinating, I was just hampered by a severe lack of time. Shouldn’t have any problems with passing it, but it’s not going to be as good a result as I could have got if I’d been able to give it my full attention.
With that done, attention switches back to M359. By my reckoning I’m about 3 weeks behind on the final stretch, so time to knuckle down and start working…
…except that the keyboard on my MacBook Pro has given up under the pressure of heavy-duty bashing. Or at least the ‘G’ key has – its keycap went flying across the room last week and hasn’t been seen since, so the laptop itself is winging its way back to Apple for a keyboard replacement. That’s anything between 2-5 working days until I have access to it again. One word: ARRRGH!
One last piece of news for this meandering post:
Considering that exam was done with pretty much no revision, I can’t complain about that result. Onwards! Sadly, the next unit will be the dreaded M253…
