School

I did Unit #3 today and recieved an average 70% barely passing this Biology course. It's been frustrating since day one, I've been out of school for over 10 years and I'm trying to teach myself science, kinda oxymoron! I had finished Unit 1-4 out of 15, before the instructor changed the whole curriculum, almost all the units were merged and technically I had only completed Units 1-2 out of what is now 8 available units. Confusing, I know!! The instructor is famous for making the tests very broad, which means even if I study the worksheets, practise guides and do the practice quiz... there will still be additional questions on the test that you'd have missed covering. AND I've been informed that I should never rely on the practise quiz because I'm repeatedly finding errors, questions from other subjects, duplicates and missed diagrams. The test I completed today had 20 questions, NONE of them were covered in the study guide, THREE of them were from the practise quiz (one question was missing an important diagram). The icing on the cake was when I was told that I already have marks for Unit #4... but I haven't even touched this unit yet, how is that possible? Instructor had added grades on my report card that were not even mine! I'll be luck to pass this course, but none the wiser after all the mass confusion and disorganization!!

We had dinner with an old friend that used to work with Heath. He's now working at a local Hotel and I was shocked to find out how the Nanaimo sex industry has gone underground. They are utilizing the local Hotels to "host" their activities and advertising online, like Craigslist. We were also advised that the local Hotels have known ongoing issues with bedbugs, which we were relieved to hear because we were seriously considering getting a local Hotel for Granny and Grandpa when they come to visit this summer... now, there is NO WAY!!
