No, this is not referring to some amazing just in time manufacturing in Japan, but rather the result of the A-bomb that I got this evening. That’s the assignment bomb!
What Happened
Being a good nerd, I was doing my pre-course preparation, and was about to get up to go to church, and wham, there it was at the bottom of the subject pre-course materials page, the scary note reminding us not to forget about the assignment which is due sooner than I could fathom any assignment needed to be in (we only start lectures in 2 weeks).
Well, I managed to get it done in a couple of hours after church, but it’s one of the other subjects which I wrote about last week which helped me stay calm. The blessed professional development article that I was reading mentioned how you need to be able to take an external look at yourself and the situation and sum it up. Luckily that was fresh in my mind, so instead of thinking this was the end of the world, not going to church and being grumpy until I had completed the assignment, I decided that there is still plenty of time to do the assignment even after church.
In Summary
Firstly, I decided to check all of the other sets of course notes that we were given to ensure that there are no more A-bombs to trip me up. But more importantly, I learnt to do one of the things I had read about. Amazing, the course has not even started and I have not only learnt new things, but put them into practice. This is going to be an interesting 2 years.
Soli Deo Gloria
