No More ZEROES!!!

The lecturer for this module announced today that the quiz scores will be averaged for the 5%z. YES!!!!

Of the 6 of us in our specialisation, only one did not get zero, and we made the same 'error'. So well, I am glad they are ratifying. I am happy most of all, because the principle of assessment was applied. :D:D:D

And against all odds, I finished my 40% essay on the dot 555pm! I guess it can always be further improved, but there is a sense of satisfaction because I did do my best. From the start, the lecturer stressed that this is a student-driven assignment, and indeed it is. How far you want to go, how rigourous you want to be in your search, how deep you want to explore is self-determined. And that is what made the learning enjoyable. Also I really have very nice coursemates, who are very supportive, encouraging and genuine.

Given the juggle between work and study, I am happy that I have come this far, and yet have time to be with the kids. Next month will be another marathon, and next deadline is 28 October.

Most of all, it is the final sem with the kids.... and year sixes are graduating soon..... I am not going to think of the things I will really miss...I want to value them whilst being with them.
