As it turns out, the job that I started back on December 1st has turned out to be a bad decision for lots of reasons so as of just now I have a job offer starting on February 1st with a company who are far more highly regarded and a known entity!! Will resign middle of next week and hopefully have a week or more off. I should probably go on about how I will use this time off to study which I obviously will mostly because I will be without a car but I'm certain that Desperate Housewives, Dexter and maybe Weeds could be included and a new boy toy that I have aquired!!!
Recieved Media Kit for ED209 so going to have a go through that a bit later. Have gone through the Methods and Skills book and highlighted important bits in yellow and theorists in green (too many coloured highlighters so still got to work out what to do with pink, purple and blue!!!)
TMA05 is currently put to one side and my actual hurdle in getting it done is actually the headings which I know sounds daft as I have the content so that is my next thing to sort.
TMA06 hasn't been started so will get on to that once TMA05 is in full draft stage, I think the reading will be interesting as it will have arguements for and against migration which is a topic I have fairly strong views on myself so need to make sure that they don't get in the way.

New Year.
Well 2011 has finally arrived with a bang. I think I have abused my body enough for a while so am just chilling out for a few days. This chill out should get me back in to study time.
TMA04 - This is now complete, I just have to make some punctuation and grammar changes then I think I will just submit. I am quite happy with what I have written.
DD101 in general - I am over half way through course in my schedule however 4 weeks ahead of OUs schedule (this I hasten to add is not me trying to be flash but needed to get ahead for ED209 starting February and the minor fact that work would be very boring if I didn't have TMAs to do. I have started to short cut a little with TMAs. I read all 3 chapters, LC pages and audio transcripts, them I read assignments notes and that is the only bits I re-read and make notes from. I have really enjoyed DD101 due to the total variety and each TMA being on a different subject.
TMA05 - This is due sometime in March and I've made a start already. Apparently the focus is on Chapter 1 with a little of Chapter 2 and very little from Chapter 3. I take this to mean that I only need to focus on chapter 1 and will find nothing to use in 2 & 3. The audio Economic, Wealth & Happiness was very useful. I am trying to work out how to break this all up in to report structure so need to re-read the text to help with this.
ED209/Desperate Housewives - Watching Desperate Housewives on Megavideo leaves me with a 30 minute break every 72 minutes (explanation irrelevent) therefore using this time to read and underline ED209 course texts after printing the notes available from http://www.tenpencepiece.net/blog/ to check my understanding (these are awesome notes BTW). Week 1 stuff is virtually completed apart from missing Media Kit which is involved a fair bit.
Work - Not sure I will still be in this job in Febraury but we shall see. I hate company politics and this place has more than the worst amount ever seen.
Long post I know but a round up on starting a New Year seemed wise.
