Practically speaking
Hi all,
I went and met my prac teacher on Friday after school and had a good old chinwag. I’ve got a 3/4 composite class which should be pretty cool I reckon, and I start my 4 week placement there on the 8th of May. I’ll probably go in and hang out in the classroom for a couple of sessions in the following weeks just to acquaint the kids with having me in the class.
In less cool news, Deano came over on Saturday morning complaining of pain in his stomach region. In consultation with the surgeon via phone over the day, we went into the ER at about 8pm to get him seen to. He ended up staying most of the night in the “Acute” section of Emergency, having had a CAT scan, and being brought into a ward at 4am. To his displeasure (particularly due to the discomfort) they found nothing of concern, but are still keeping him overnight again tonight.
Dad went to church this morning for the first time in a while, and it seems to have knocked him around a bit. Karen dropped dad home afterwards, doing the dual purpose of returning Bryce’s car, and Berny came by after counting the money. As always, nice to see them.
I’ve also made some “Rasterbations” (Read that carefully - Raster… RASter…) which are big poster pictures. You input a picture, set it how you want it, and it converts it to a giant picture which you then print out on A4 pages and stick them together. You can do it a couple of ways, and I chose to go with the gaps around each page.
Here’s 2 of the ones I made - bear in mind that the lines represent an A4 page - which I’ll put on my walls when I get my room well and truly sorted.

If I could remember how to make them links, I would, but you may just have to cut and paste them for now. And I’ve got another one in colour that I’ve got to put together, which is of a dancing Elvis on the dash of the old Corolla.
