My first day of new timetable at Terrific Trowbridge!

On Sunday evening it was time for me to go back to Farleigh. I felt a bit sad during the journey but I was fine later on Monday morning.

At Trowbridge today I had a longer morning rest because I didn't need to go to tutorial. At 10:00 it was time for lessons which were an hour long. We just had to do some assessments in the morning. After break,   it was my first introduction lesson on Info Systems. The teacher was explaining to us about what we would be doing in her lessons.

After lunch, I had my introduction lesson on animation and I was drawing a face on Paint and PowerPoint.

During breaks, I was playing on my Bop It XT. In the afternoon break, I started on the Pro level where you have to remember 3 commands at once. They can be voice, sounds and colours. The first pattern on solo is always "Bop It! Twist It! Pull It!" and then it randomises everything. You have to do 100 to win. When I got to the end he said to me, "Score 100, you're on fire!!!! You beat Bop It!" and it played a victory celebration.

Tomorrow is a bit exciting for me because Microsoft have got a BUILD conference in California and they'll be allowing attendees to try out Windows 8 and Internet Explorer 10 and they'll be streaming on their website at 9:00am PDT.

This week at Farleigh is a shorter week and Pops will have a better Brain Shift hopefully coming through the post this week.
