CCCCCHEKING IN....

Well i haven't blogged in what seems like forever, so i thought i'd check in and give you a little update on how things are coming.

It seems i am barely keeping my head above water in terms of all the college assignments that are being thrown upon me like there's no tomorrow! Its definitely a challenge, trying to organise all my placement work, all my college work, all my daily logs/observations/routines/activities, and actually writing my assignments, but i'm sure i'll get them done. 

Well, so far life's been awesome. I have finally got rid of some baggage that i had, and thankfully thats out of my life, and i don't have to encounter that again. But even though losing that baggage was an incredibly hard decision, i have gained something much more special, and other things have been made much more clearer to me. 
So thats a good thing.

I can't wait till Saturday 3rd December, i'm off to the O2 arena in London to go to the Jungle Bell Ball concert with my friend. Can't wait for that - haven't been to a live gig since i was like 9 and it was the Girl Guides Big Gig in Wembley Arena. Can't wait to see The Wanted, Rihanna and Olly Murs.....OhEmGee!!! :D

My brother's doing exceptionally well with his rugger at the minute, he managed to maintain his position in the saints development squad so that's good. Very proud of him!

Plus, i have just sat here and worked out that there are only 43 more days till christmas aaahhh exciting stuff, and even though ive had my christmas present early (my blackberry) i still can't wait, cause its not always about the presents, its more about the family, and the traditions you keep in your family. I hope it snows - snow makes for both great fun and great photography!

Next Friday, will be Children in Need, and usually we don't fundraise for that, not all day, but we would usually dress up and pay a pound and the refectory would sell pudsey cookies or something at the Sixth Form. But at the institute, the whole day's lessons are cancelled and we spend the whole day fundraising. I'm not being funny, but i do think that cancelling ALL lessons is a bit ridiculous. They say we are contracted to 13 hours a week of contact time, well, firday we lose 6 hours out of our contact time, because we are "fundraising" all we are doing is standing behind a cake stall selling cakes! I
Don't get me wrong, i love fundraising for charities, but you don't necessarily have to cancel everybody's lessons! 

So whats the point of coming in, i hear you ask yourself? Thats is something i asked myself when i was informed about it, but our tutor says she would be very disappointed and unhappy if we decided not to bother coming in for the day because we have no lessons. But it is completely bonkers, but hey-ho, never mind!

Well, thats it from me for a while, i'm shattered, and i can't say when i will be in next, as i dare say i will have very little social life trying to do all this damn college work and going to watch the brother train and play all his rugger etc! Hopefully it'll be before christmas day, maybe christmas eve, if i remember!

Ciao
