Karen left her farewell present on the nibbles table - a nearly full tin of Quality Street. There was the ultimate test - but I passed with flying colours and didn't venture near the damn tin all shift. 4 more days to go, 4 more days to go...
We had our monthly briefing at the end of the shift. Jenny asked the supervisors to give us a rendition of 'the Easter Bunny song' : although Marilyn made bunny ears with her fingers, none of them obliged.
There was no sign of the other group at college tonight; we had the IT suite to ourselves once again. "We've worn them down," was Pathenia's take on it. Sue and Mariana were in rather high spirits, having a good-natured competition with each other over completing their exercises and generally being loud and energetic. Pathenia observed "I don't know what you two are on, but I'd like some."
"Red Bull, isn't it?" I chipped in. "No, we're just in a good mood," replied Sue, while Pathenia asked if it was down to our no longer having to be quiet for the benefit of the other group. Sue added that Red Bull tasted horrible. I countered that I love it and that I always have to have a can before class. (In fact, thanks to my tight budget, tonight I'd settled for Asda's 44p clone Blue Charge, but didn't spoil the effect by mentioning that.)
"Are we that bad?" Pathenia laughed. Sue and Mariana reckoned that was why I flew through exams so quick and that they'd have to try some - then they resumed their boisterous conversation...
As for me, I spent most of the class doing 'Using E-mail'. Piece of cake. Mock exam next week.
