Bill the cat is just like Bonnie. The other day I nearly accidentally called him/her Bonnie.
Today we're taking the caravan up to the dam for camping so we can get a good spot.
My take-home exams: THe Chinese one was soooooo hard. Last question required you to actually read and comprehend the whole 3-page story which I frankly don't have time to do so I left the answer blank. And another one. And another one. For the first time in my career at uni, I am going to fail a test. My average for third-year will go down to a pass or credit and all that hard work during the semester will go to waste. For Remaking Chinese Society I was given the mark of Incomplete which means technically I have a very long time to finish to essay but the instructor is asking when I'll hand it in so I am planning a trip to Canberra to visit the national library to do a bit of research and do some general sussing out of the library. THe kids are going to go to the Questacon. I also wrote out the classical take-home. I couldn't use the original paper because I had written bizarre answers all over it. And I did a half-arse job at the third-year homework questions: 'Write 200 characters on what you would want to happen at the end of the story.' and I wrote They meet again and finally get married. They move overseas and he writes a book on his experiences. I hope that is accepted as a 'serious attempt'. Just glad to get it over and half-done with. ¶ 08:41
