Uni. So. I failed my second assignment for one of the core units. Didn't read the question right. *bashes head against wall* I'm going to see if I can redo it (doubtful) or get special consideration for it if that's possible, but if not I should be able to pass if I do really well on this last assignment. This next one is worth 55% of the marks, the one I failed and the first assignment (which I got a distinction for/2nd best mark) are worth the remaining 45% so even with failing that one I should be able to pass okay. Will have to put a bit more work into this one and make sure I actually read it properly and don't let my mind wander.
Laptop. Went by a computer place after uni and asked about their fixing laptops/etc. It's about $75 an hour and usually takes a few hours. They won't be available to fix it until the 19th. Mum offered money the other day so I think I'll have to follow her up on that for whatever it costs. Will see. Until then I'm just going to have to continue using it while it's not quite right and hope that it doesn't crash on me in the middle of an assignment or the like.
Other. Crappy mood today. Lots on my mind. I think I'll post a bit of fic now, clear my mind and in an hour or so get into the uni stuff.

Thanks. *hugs*

Date: 2009-05-11 09:53 am (UTC)uh oh! that ain't sound good at all.
as much as i love watching epis & movies on a horizontal position, still i rather keep my laptop on a table, where the fan is not covered anyhow. if i take my laptop into my bed, i make a lil table from the extra board and few baskets *lol*

lol true. That's way cool. I have a rectangular laundry basket next to the bed here. It's rather tall, made of wood. Putting the laptop across it, it has air flow beneath which means less crashing. Tis good.

I have my writing and some uni stuff on my iPod. Not space enough for much else what with all my music and everything though.
