That assignment was for U211 (Exploring the English Language). I've just sent it off, but it was the most difficult one I've had to do with the OU so far. Thank goodness it's done though, lol. Do you not get a great sense of achievement when you've sent them off? I'm doing A210 along side it as well. Got a Romantic poetry comparison coming up.
Are your modules going okay? What are your plans?

That my days have been a dream;

In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?..." E. A. Poe
Got the exact same score as Mrs Neely on the last English, 33, damn!
My last ever uni modules start next week - 12 weeks and then I will have got my degree, finally. Seven years of part-time study! Let me tell you now, I am going to get so drunk on the final day, so drunk and will collect my BA like it is a crown of glory brought by the gods of Belgian beer and wild dance.
Alternative Neely is taking a short walking trip in the Lake District and drinking a lot of freshly prepared coffee in cute little coffee shops. He is also taking delight in browsing niche second-hand bookshops and leisurely sipping real ales by the fireside of quiet pubs. It is nearly spring there.
I bet you're eagerly anticipating that! I'm rather jealous. Are you going to do a Masters? I think I'll be tempted to, once I've got my degree. You might get withdrawal symptoms...

Maths, English Writing, Religion - Philosophy, Sports Science and Athelete Development.
I'm happy with all my subjects, should be a good year.
Is that 'Things that have been written in English' or 'Things I write in English?' Either way it seems to me you will have your work cut out - Good Luck!
I know just the place - see you there. Last time I was in the Lake District, the daffodils were out, beside the lake, beneath the trees - really - and there was this chap wandering about on his own muttering 'What rhymes with "cloud"?' - no, not really....
If I can get financial aide, I'm thinking of returning to college to get my A.A. I'm only nine credits away from getting it, though six credits are math.Not my best subject, math.
I went to vocational school because I was convinced that college was robbing me of my life precious. I thought vocational school would give me more applicable experience that could help me get a job. I got a certificate for medical coding. Unfortunately, employers want certified medical coders (I got a certifcate of completion--but there are certification tests to take). Many are asking for A.A.s too.
So, I've decided to put off job hunting and focus on my studies. I need my certification. I want to learn Spanish, since being bilingual is now almost a requirement. I'm thinking of changing my liberal arts degree to Accounting. Health INformation Management is more complimentary to coding, but I'm worried that an allergy to TB screens may keep me from getting most coding jobs. If I can't find a doctor that will sign off on me, I will never get a job in a hospital, nursing home, or home health agency. So I'm thinking of Accounting. It is a nice extra skill with coding, and it may not hurt to have a back-up career. :/
I don't care if the glass is half full or half empty, I'm just glad to have a glass.
I know so many doing A210 at the moment and my facebook page is full of people cursing two poets in particular.
I've an assignment due for A150 (voices and Texts) on Thurs. Got to write a poem. Was fun.
On another note though.... I PASSED A180!!!!! WOOT!

Writing a poem for an assignment does sound fun! Are you planning on doing the creative writing module?
Wordsworth and Blake.
I haven't started it yet but I'm sure I'll be cursing by the end of the night, lol.

Sent my assignment off eventually, but I'm not happy with it really; could have done with a longer word limit. Onwards and upwards though.
