Having had a bit of free time over the holidays it’s given me some time to do some proper reflecting and general thinking shall we say. It really makes me think about how I don’t have time to do enough reflecting during term time lol.
I’m a long way from having nothing to do. I’m trying to burn as much of my FYP as possible as well as starting to get some revision done which is going to get blitz next week while at the same time stoking the bank balance and working on a huge migration of almost every site in the Worfolk Online network to which any leftover scraps of time are donated to the odd bit of family time and trying to spend some quality time with my friends before they disappear back off to uni in January.
Still, there isn’t quite the pressure you encounter during term time. I don’t have to be up every single day for something. I don’t (to an extent) have meetings and appointments at set times, I can work and sleep as I feel. And it’s a very fine change.
I’m still not completely sold on this whole holiday concept though. It makes it hard to get things done when people aren’t working. Our modem denied on Christmas Eve and eBuyer are quoting next Monday on “next day delivery” (10 days away). That said, Christmas Day is a good day to get work done – I got a response from my server company in 4 minutes! Of course, support is always willing and ready but this was sent to the sales department so I was most impressed.
