Week 2: Whew

Good morning, afternoon or whatever time you are reading this. It has been an interesting second week with lots of brain strains. It has been quite interesting looking at an annual statement and studying how it all comes together. The workload has been quite strenuous trying to fit all the subjects into a week while working. However, I have finally gotten into the swing of things *cross fingers*. My week started out well writing my week one blog on Monday. It progressed quite rapidly each day, completing 10 questions on Peerwise attempting to get the Obsessed badge. It went quite well with me obtaining it on Thursday. However, on Tuesday, I nearly didn't get my 10 questions seeing as I had answered too many the day before. But I ended the week well above the score of 1,000 needed for 1 mark for the course.

Reading the Annual statement was quite enjoyable. Still being unsure of what everything means made me read it 2 or 3 times. I tried to jot down some KCQ's, but they still baffle me. I have found some key concepts; however, trying to get enough for an assessment is something that I will have to try hard to accomplish. Transferring all the numbers to the spreadsheet took a long time, but I think it was mainly due to a power outage that made me think it took longer than it actually did. I was encouraged to get outside and play some basketball during the power outage. Then after that ordeal, we grabbed some doughnuts. Learning about companies is extremely interesting, and I am looking forward to the rest of the subject to see how deeply we delve.

I looked at everyone's blogs during the week to see which ones will make it into my top 3. this took quite some time due to there being 70 odd people in the course now. But after a lot of digging there seemed to be 1 or two that had worked on their blog. And 3 people that had added a couple of buttons to their blogs. I am looking forward to checking all the blogs this week to see how much time people have spent on there blogs. Most of all, I look forward to reading the posts people put up about their studies and to see if they are struggling at the same points that I am.

My week personally was exceptional. Each afternoon after we finished work, we took Freyah and Jed for walks around the block. Attempting to make them use all their energy which we can't do without taking them for a 20 km sprint. We went on our Fortnightly date night to a steakhouse on Wednesday night. This way, I didn't need to worry about study, and we could spend the night relaxing. Then on Saturday, we went for a drive around Milla Milla to see the waterfalls and go for a quick swim in the cold water.

I look forward to reading your blogs and seeing what everyone else has been up to. Until next week have fun and study hard.
