Blogging is useful

I posted on a blog of sorts yesterday regarding one of the 3 uni assignments I have cooking at the moment. When our lecturer announced that participating on the subject discussion board was mandatory for this assignment there were a few who looked a little daunted at the prospect. I put it down to my time on the blogs that I didn't share their trepidation. Last night I wrote up a brief explanation of the patient I planned to study and my thoughts on the two areas of health management I was focusing on. My lecturer replied this morning with some good advice and a very helpful and interesting link to a pain management site. Have a look if you're interested.

What has blogging helped you do?

Studying and Procrastinating

I've a lot of work to do for Uni today so obviously I'm doing a fair amount of procrastinating - it would be good if you would all stop posting and let me work ;) The first assignment is due on Wednesday and the second on Friday so they are close enough for my adrenaline driven panic mode to be setting in. Actually I think putting those thoughts to type has just kicked the 'last minute' mechanism into gear. Yeehaa!

I'm Back

I've just come back from the future to save you...

...save you from the frustration of checking to see if I've posted lately! (I missed the new Terminator series last night - any good?!?!)

Such a slacker - I think I was feeling the "Facebook killed the blogger star" vibe either that or I'm lazy. Busy last couple of months. I was reading over my last few posts so here's an update:

The iPhone is still awesome (and still not mine)

Kevin Rudd is not only our PM but did a bloody awesome job today. It was quite emotional watching the apologies made by both leaders. Brendan could have just said "I agree" but he had to waffle on and repeat everything with a few different stories thrown in to make it look like he hadn't copied :)

I've got Uni orientation tomorrow for my post grad course starting in a few days. I managed to score two scholarships recently which will cover all my fees for the year - nice!

'North Rocks @ Night' is going full steam ahead with a planned launch on the 23rd March. It's going to be a busy few weeks. Kate and I will be leading a Bible study group which should be challenging and fun.

Other than that I've been playing with my espresso machine and Kate's settling into teaching Kindy. All is well for the start (close) of 2008. Hope you like the new '08 look for THO - feedback appreciated. Thanks for all you die hards who kept asking for another post.

Cheers

Postgrad

I handed in my application to do a Postgraduate Certificate in Acute Care Nursing next year. I had promised myself I wouldn't do any more study - obviously not a very trustworthy bloke :) It's one year part time and gives me the cred to apply to be a nurse specialist. Now begins the joyous task of applying for scholarships. Your prayers would be appreciated.
