Week 10

This week we finally finished the last part of chapter 2. After a long relaxing weekend, I forgot about my stress and took the weekly knowledge quiz on Monday pretty easy. Luckily I prepared well enough and got a satisfying grade, a good start into the new week. But then Mr. Matt told us about the chapter test about chapter 2 on the following Monday. I got shocked and thought about my result of the last test, a 70%!!!!! I immediately got a vision of my failure on the next Monday. The vision reflected me getting a grade lower than 60%!!!! I also thought about the 20% from my final grade that the test was worth! But finally I could get rid of that vision and I started to think positive. The believe of succeeding on the test by studying Mr. Matt's hard ICT lesson well, made me get more confidence and I looked forward to get a high grade!

Well, this week we worked as usual on our websites. Mr. Matt showed us some cool moves to make our website more interesting and more fancy. He showed us how to make hot spots and calendars on Microsoft Outlook. I found that pretty interesting, more interesting than studying the lessons from the book! This week was also the end of Quarter 1. We should have gotten our report cars today, on Monday, but because the computers of the school had some problems, all the grades got lost and all the teachers have to update the grades again. "That's a lot of work," said Mr. Matt after having to give every student a comment again. I already wondered why he was so sad when I greeted him while I was walking in the class. For some reason he looked different than normal, I thought. He had to work very hardly on the weekend and didn't even come to try out Counter-Strike 1.6, which I had borrowed the disk for him. I hoped he could get as addicted to the game as I was, but the school didn't let him enjoy the game. I guess I'll just give him time to get addicted.

Poor Mr. Matt, I hope he'll get done with the stuff and start playing soon!

Week 9

Another week has passed and like always we had a knowledge quiz. This week, the quiz was pretty easy, even I got 100% and most of the class got a high score. I think Mr. Matt finally left his evil desire of wanting to punish his students with hard ICT lessons.
This week we continued working on our websites, but I don't seem to get very far, because Microsoft Fontpage seems to have a lot of functions that I still don't know about, but I'll try my best. I actually pretty enjoy this project, because of the free space Mr. Matt gave us. We could write about anything in our website. I decided to write about Anime and Mangas, my favorite hobbies. Also, I like that Mr. Matt gave us a lot of time to make our websites, it makes my stress fade away.
Of course we also had to do our HW, reading the book and studying the PPP Mr. Matt made for us.
Because Mr. Matt made such a good PPP for us to study the lesson easily, I was able to get a high score on the quiz on monday. We learned about many kinds of websites and their usages.
In general i found this week pretty interesting and relaxing!
