Feeling a little bit annoyed and bored today, even though I did manage to finish off the induction module for my interior design diploma course. I think the poor weather has been such a downer today, making it difficult for me to find inspiration at all. When I say I feel a little annoyed I mean that I’m annoyed at how lackluster today seemed. Actually, I’ve been in a great mood all day but only now that I’m trying to figure out what I want to write am I realizing my feelings.

When I was walking back from the gym it was raining a bit harder than a drizzle but I didn’t use my umbrella or put my hood up. Instead, I enjoyed the tiny splashes of water on my cheeks and eyelids as they cooled off my face. It made me miss the warm Florida sun-showers that were always unpredictable but resulted in a rainbow every time. I don’t think I’ve seen a single rainbow since I’ve lived in England. It’s a bit sad, I guess!

I feel really behind on tv shows at the moment since I’ve been trying to go to bed around 10 or 11 each night. It’s really difficult to cram all of the shows my husband and I like to watch together into the four hours we have with each other once he gets home from work. Right now we’re making our way through the fourth season of House of Cards and it’s looking like we’ll finish by Friday at the rate we’re going.

So that’s basically all I have to say for today apart from talking a little bit more about my initial thoughts about the interior design diploma course. I’m a very fast-paced learner and I’m always super quick at completing tasks so I’m finding it a little irritating having to wait for certain parts of the course to be released to me so I can carry on with the assignments. For instance, in the induction module there’s a form you have to download and fill out with answers from the student handbook and you also have to sign up for their forum and make a post before you can then upload the finished form to be graded. I couldn’t log into the forum because they hadn’t sent me the link or username/password, and then when they sent it over the next day it didn’t recognize the details and I had to wait another day for them to change/fix it.

Anyway, it’s just a little thing but I’m frustrated because I desperately want to begin the actual interior design course and find it so annoying that I have to wait around for stuff that should all be ready to go, you know? Hopefully the rest of the course has less to do with posting on the forums and focuses more on actual interior design but I guess I’ll just have to wait and see…
