Mildly busy...

There are just a few things happening at the moment, so I am somewhat busier than usual. I won't go into the boring details, but I am actually looking forward to the last week of school, even though that's crunch time for junior prizegiving. The trips and presentations and reports and debate adjudicating will at least be over by then.


The trip that I went on this week was a lot of fun, although it did have its fair share of accompanying stress and extra work. The OnTV activity at Capital E is awesome! We took a bunch of students to it, and it was fantastic. I even got to play with the vision mixing desk at one point, bringing back fond memories of my university video production course.


I can fully see that it'd be a worthwhile experience for Year 13 Media Studies students, as the gear is all top notch and the facility is really cool, even though it's been designed for much younger kids (lots of bright colours, low desks and 'workstations', and an overall fun atmosphere). Heck, I'd even go so far as to say that it'd probably be a lot of fun for a group of adults to go there and put together a news show!


Anyways, I am semi-trapped in front of a computer waiting for a DVD to burn, so I thought I'd post a quick message here before doing some reports work. It would be nice if the DVD burner was a little faster - I have 10 copies of the DVD to make, and this one's taking about 7 minutes to burn. That's a long time to have to be near the computer to change discs - longer than I can manage today!


Hmmm, reports await...
