Another test from my iPod touch

Well the main purpose of starting this blog and blogging in general was the idea of jotting down lecture notes and pitting them up for anybody to see and use. I don't usually take notes during lectures. This happened about 2 years ago when I started leaving my MM2 course book on my locker and I didn't make an effort to go through the chapter exercises. Since then I've basically forced myself to understand the lecture ok the spot. Sometimes it works but other times it's a mess. Hopefully I'll be able to jot down quick notes and problems I have during lecture time for later review. I'll just have to make sure I don't make any funny spelling mistakes with the autocorrect feature of the iPod touch.

Can't complain

Had a 10% test where we had to write a complaint letter for EngGen403. I just can't complain and when I do, it's unstructured and hard to interpret. I ended up making up a fictional complaint about how a fictional company called "Pave My Way" did a really crap job paving my fictional drive way because areas of the paving started sinking into the ground. I made the fictional company look like a premier paving company with good contractors and track record. It just makes it easier to persuade the company to come and fix up the fictitiously bad job to save their fictional brand image.

I can't really say that it was a good complaint because I usually live with complaints unless the incurred costs are just way too high for me or I have to spend heaps of time sorting out the problem myself. I don't think my "argument" was all that logical. I'll have to think back to the days of Phil 105. Have good premises to support my conclusions (or sub conclusions).
