What Have I been doing!?

Contextual studies - simple as. Not only have I had to prepare for the presentation with a load of images set up and think about what I was going to talk about (I think it went ok) I have been again neglecting this project as I've been swamped with Contextual fever - The essay which according to Kieron, should have been prepared a long time ago and sorted out already... is hard to write when he doesn't really specify a target to write towards. No goal... I seriously don't recall getting a copy of the brief which is a ***** but hey. I searched moodle but only found the CVA Contextual upload point for 2008. Hope thats the one we are supposed to be working with and uploading too. I've nearly finished it now but the whole Contextual project this term has been an outrage to put it lightly and Mr Dennis had the nerve to have a go at us for not being in the room and set up when he waltses in the CVA lab yr 2 room 20mins after 10. If we HAD of been prompt and started we'd have to start again for him being the tutor. Not only was he rude to each individual while we were setting up and preparing but he also had his phone on loud and recieved text messages a number of times whilst students were presenting. Contextual Studies this term has really annoyed me. I understand there is a need for it in our curriculum to broaden our horizons however I feel that rushing something in the last two weeks of the year is not the way to go! Especially when everyone else has two attempts at doing a presentation (moving image I believe) and are now practising disertation writing I feel that we may see the outcome of this next year as our disertations the quality which they should rightfuly have....
Animating has been put on the back burner yet again... which really annoys me. I want our piece to look pretty good and due to this contextual work we have had to sacrifice yet again.
