No time for study!

Hi and welcome back once again, we really should stop meeting like this. So here I am writing away and about to give you my latest update. I’ve been working on a little secret just for you, my favourite reader! I can’t tell you what it is just yet, but I promise that you will be impressed when I finally unveil it. For now though what I can say is that after a weekend full of lectures I haven’t really been able to get much study done. I contacted my lecturer about my assignments for this week, I have a reading task to complete so I need to jump on it asap. But the reality is I’m not gonna be able to get this done until the end of the week, due to work commitments. It’s been a busy week back after having two weeks off.

I spent most of Tuesday catching up with everything, emails, meetings etc. Had a chance to catch up with the rest of the team briefly, before we had to go to Student Affairs Committee. I realised in this meeting that as a team we are really working well together and achieving some positive results. So yeah I don’t mind singing our praises, there’s plenty more to come. So after the meeting I had another meeting with some students. We are trying to get a mini campaign together to help ensure we get as many students registered to vote as possible, before the local elections in May. We should be able to get some funding from Wolverhampton City Council, which is pretty good, It’s a good cause and equally important that the message is put out. Wow! That’s only half my day, I’m in need of coffee!!



Second Part of the Day
Ahhhhh, the coffee has gone down well. (wipes mouth). No time for lunch, again! I need to get more work done, I have to write an order for some signage I’m having designed for the S.U. I’m a stickler for detail, I need to get this order and quote re-done because it turns out we are being charged for some signage that should be charged to the University. It might only be £40, but I wouldn’t be a responsible Trustee if I didn’t scrutinise every single order that comes across my desk. SO I’ve sent it back for a re-quote. Tick tock tick tock, time flies by and its now gone 5pm, mostly everyone else has left but I’m still at my desk. I have an important meeting that I’ve set up in order to look at working better with International Students, I need to get the PowerPoint done, images sourced and info collated and presentable, then practiced before 12pm tomorrow. Go super Ken you can do it. 7:45pm I’m ready to leave. I have the bulk of it done and I will add the animations to it in bed before getting some Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz’s.

Presentations and shortlistings
I’m so grateful for flexi-time. Today I’ve had an extra hour in bed. I really needed it! Traffic doesn’t seen as bad leaving a bit later, I’m in for ten o’clock and head straight down stairs in the SU and get stuck straight into the short listing for the position of Deputy CEO. Something about being busy, I love it! It’s been a while since I’ve had to short list applications for job, it’s satisfying, but at the same time it reminds me why when I used to manage a sales team I would use an employment agency, it takes away all the pressure of time constraints. In between this I managed to get my important meeting done and my presentation went down well. Another successful day, but of course it’s not over yet. I can’t really give you the full story just yet, because that will spoil the special surprise I have install for you. So for now I will leave you with this closing thought, “If a tree fell down in the middle of the wood, and there was no one round for miles and miles, would anyone care?” I look forward to seeing you again soon! Maybe I can get some reading done?
