Worst start to a birthday ever. :(
Aw, man. Are you sick? I was going to give you a man hug, but I don't want to squish anything out of you if you're sick.
I hope your birthday takes an upturn for the better.
Happy birthday, Studpuffin.
Happy Birthday, Puffin-Man. Hope you feel better immediately!
Facebook did not tell me of Puffin man's birthday. Did Facebook lie to me? Did Puffin man lie to Facebook? I would have gladly given Puffin man an extra special birthday wish that only I can deliver with without impunity.
I clearly blame Freehold's hate obsession with Whedon as triggering the loss of balance in the Buffyverse. Never mind the fact that I've never seen a single episode of Buffy. Or Firefly, for that matter. I digress.

I think it's Puffin's way of maintaining some privacy.
Of course, I feel like the ass after making the "too much sugar" comment on his FB page while wishing him a Happy Birthday/Get Well.
Ugh, sleepy today. Thank God the kids are being so well behaved.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter and got lots of family time in.
Worst start to a birthday ever. :(Sorry to hear that Puffin! Hope the day gets better, and Happy Birthday.

First final exam today. It's math, so I'm not too worried. I did a few practice problems last night, and I think I'm good to go.
Poor kidlet is home from school today. His allergies kept him up half the night so he was more than half asleep this morning.
Yup! Happy Easter.
Almost time to get ready and go do my Sunday grocery shopping. Then it's....laundry time!
Wow. You have the exact same Easter plans that I do. :D
Except first I have to set up the Easter egg hunt for the kidlet who thankfully slept in due to a long full day of playing yesterday.
I would have gone grocery shopping if they hadn't all been closed (mostly unannounced) for Easter.

I was more then half asleep this morning, and I didn't get to stay home :(

Yes, but I doubt you throw tantrums that could easily cause harm to yourself and/or others when you're overtired either. :)

Yeah, I ended up not being able to do the grocery shopping either. But I did get six loads of laundry done, so that's something.
Much to my chagrin, I've decided ultimately that web-only learning is not for me. :/
Finally watched "Game of Thrones" and I loved it. But I have to say it contained way to many boobs.
** spoiler omitted **
this post is sheer madness. There is no such thing as too many boobs.
Hoppy easter FAWLtYies!!Happy Easter, Freehold? Did the Bunny bring you lots of Hatereggs{tm}?
strangely enough, no he did not. I may have to make my own!
Worst start to a birthday ever. :(
I am sorry to hear that, puffin -man. I Here's hoping your b-day improves!

Online learning is tougher than many would think.

Lets not forget my unyielding hatred of Facebook here, and which may indeed have caused the birthday skippage on your list of updates. If this was indeed the cause, then I heartily apologize, i hate Facebook, not Puffins or their birthdays!
True. I often find myself having difficulty paying attention.Much to my chagrin, I've decided ultimately that web-only learning is not for me. :/Online learning is tougher than many would think.
In my case, I need the classroom to help keep me focused or I tend to get distracte--- Oh! Shiny! ~goes off to contemplate the shiny trinket I just found on the ground~
Much to my chagrin, I've decided ultimately that web-only learning is not for me. :/
Bummer. Are you going to be able to tough out this semester's classes and at least get your money's worth?

Really? Why not? I'm curious. Not that I'm ever likely to get the opportunity since my classes usually involve labs, but it seems like such a good idea...

lol. See I have that problem in the classroom. Except when they let me play with chemicals. Even I pay attention when there is imminent possibility of boom. ;P

I'm more annoyed by the fact that I seem to be writing an essay for each question instead of a couple of paragraphs regurgitating what I've read. I've not received a response from the teacher nor have I heard back about how I did on my first essay. As much hell I'm going to get by wasting money, I'm just going to drop the course and retake it in the class room instead. I feel like I'm sorely missing out on the classroom presentation experience. Web courses are not for me.

I'll stick with the in-class courses. I cannot keep up with the web one. It's a shame, because it's a topic I'm well familiar with. It's just that what I expected and what I'm getting are totally incompatible. I'm getting the initial impression that you get weighed down with a lot more essays in the web environment versus the in-class experience. Frankly, I'm not interested.

I'm the type of person that likes to learn by visual instruction with the means to ask questions if something confuses me. That and the fact that these books are the ultimate in eye-gouging banality. And finally, I just discovered the other day that the instructor deviated from the books required for the curriculum as sold in the book store and subbed with a different one. Made sense why I couldn't choose one of the questions to answer questions when the page number reference made no sense. It's partially fault for not reading more closely to the syllabus. But at least with the in-class instructors, the majority of them make sure to bring to attention so you don't make that innocent mistake.
Besides, if I want to continue to take future classes related to the entry level, I don't want to overlook something and pay for it later. Live and learn. :/

augh! Sorry to hear you are having such trouble with your online course. The it really is not for everyone, and it can be depressing to find out that you are one of those people. With respect to a teacher deviating from the syllabus, i too burn with rage when that happens. Long story short, you are putting down money to take part in this experience, you should get at least some small amount of congruence with what you thought the course would be about. It's my number two peeve behind a professor writing the book for the course or dumping /forgetting to order the books for the course.

Seems more like an issue with the Teach than the online class.

Possibly, but at this point I need something with a bit more of a scheduled structure. Personally, I miss the ADHD meds, but I had to let 'em go when I lost insurance. I realize my fallibility.
Sitting through a lecture on the physiology of menstruation while experiencing the actual thing is just wrong. :(

Morning, all. What did I miss?
Well, Harry met Sally for some lunch, but was unprepared for her reaction to the delicious food. Meanwhile, Thelma and Louise found themselves in deep trouble when they took a wrong turn during their spur-of-the-moment road trip. And, across town, Rooster was alarmed when he discovered that the cargo he was transporting was actually.....No, wait! That's my soap opera.

Sorry about the loss of meds. Is there anything you can do through the college? An acquaintence of mine was able to get enough stuff to wend her way through a semester, but that was a long time ago and I'm not sure the methods she used were on the up and up.
Looked into online classes when I went back to school a while back. Didn't try them tho.
- I preferred the structure of classrooms. Less distractions.
- People contact and collaboration. Plus.
- Time spent online in 'class' chat rooms wasn't appealing.
- Class locations were fairly close to home.
- Typing speed. Slow. 'nuff said.
- Seemed like class time vs web time was about the same.
They do work for people. Whatever works best for you.

Dare I ask, or is it better I did not know?
