Here we are on another Summer Work Hours, No One at the Office Friday. I have Dianna Ross, among others, pumping out of the desktop speakers as I am the only one currently working upstairs.
I have to write a newsletter article about a course I’m working on and I am completely uninspired to write the article. It has to be a page and all I want to say is “The course rocks. It is a shining star in eLearning”. But that would be boring and a little too arrogant.
In other news, last night I was prepping for the MAT that I’m taking this afternoon. One of the analogies included Greenwich, which is at 0 degrees longitude. Greenwich, where I’ve been and stood right on the 0 degrees longitude line. We have a picture in which I’m trying hard not to look like every other tourist. I missed the question because, apparently, I’m a big stupid idiot. I made a list of concepts, words, famous names that I hope to scan off and on today (expressly going against the advice of studying right before the test). The listing for Greenwich reads “Greenwich is at 0 degrees longitude, you moron”.
Even if Greenwich isn’t on today’s test, I’ll never make the mistake again. Also, did you know Avogadro has his own number? I didn’t until last night and, honestly, until I just googled him I didn’t even know who Avogadro was. High school chemistry was a long time ago and I’m pretty sure we didn’t talk about him. Hard as that is to believe.
