Valentine’s Day 2010 didn’t work out so great for me
So I’ve pulled an all-nighter tonight for today’s hand-in for the compiler coursework I unfortunately missed last semester which left me in complete shambles with regards to my knowledge of the subject after the multiple incidents and surgery on my lung back in October and I’ve been off track ever since.
Thankfully, I had all the paperwork submitted for making a claim for mitigating circumstances for the compiler coursework. However with little to no understanding of the subject and only a delayed deadline for the submission I’ve struggled alone throughout the assignment until judgement day came.
Sadly, that day is today as the hand-in time is in less than next two hours. I have unfortunately been unsuccessful in completing the assignment as this behemoth got the better of me. From there on it’s up to my lecturer to assess and provide a reasonable mark for the work produced before discussing my so-called ‘case’ to the mitigating circumstances board at 1pm where they will ultimately decide whether or not a mark boost is to be rewarded given my situation. If all goes well, I barely pass the module and I can finally put all of this behind me. In the other hand, if my coursework is not up to the minimum 40% requirement along with the exam I sat in mid January I ultimately fail the module and therefore lose my honours for my degree. Either that or I choose to resit; the latter being the obvious choice I will make at a cost of dedicating the second half of August to revision and hard work in preparation for the summer resits.
Sorry to all my followers for the lack of posts recently along with the rather negative attitude within them. Whatever the outcome of today becomes, I plan to place this incident behind me and concentrate on my final year project and second semester in what is my final year before earning the title of BSc in Computer Science. I also plan to get back into the routine of casually posting and making Tumblr what I usually consider to be a hugely positive part of my life.
Hope all you guys had an enjoyable Sunday and look forward to getting back into doing the whole social thing on this site again.
Much love my dear followers,
Tom Lawrence.
