Anyone reading this blog might have noticed how, completely unannounced, I dropped all semblance of blog-like behaviour from this site last week and threw online all kinds of index card drawings instead.
Fairly simple reason: I’m tired of writing. After that 3000-word pile of festering crap that was my Educational Psychology essay, followed immediately by a few painfully excreted multi-page project reports (excuse the imagery), not to mention the countless essays due in the next month or so, I’d really rather not have to deal with words and grammar and sentence structure* and other such fuzziness for a while.
On the other hand, since I’m usually bored out of my mind in my NIE classes (my Physics and Math courses have succeeded in convincing me that I really, really don’t want to teach those subjects so I need to find a school that’s looking for Computer Science teachers), all I need are my black pen and some index cards to entertain myself for a few precious minutes that could save me from permanent brain damage.
So, yes, that’s it. Now I post another chicken comic.
* Not that I usually do.
Ah … I thought maybe you were doing something like Moove Media’s cardboard cows. You know … post a bunch of chicken drawings online today, walk around in a chicken suit tomorrow.
It’s a real pity no one wants to learn Computer Science anymore huh. Any chance of teaching at university level?
hey dude. yeah i might get around to the chicken suit bit when i start teaching 🙂
highly doubt the university level bit, looking into applying to teach at polytechnics. my pre-NIE attempt at that kinda fell through, but maybe i didn’t try hard enough.
pity JC computing is slowly getting edged out…
Well, JC computing is really not much of a challenge anyway.
