The past couple weeks I have been debating about what I should
write my blog about this week, I have decided to share the unfortunate events
that have happened over the last couple of weeks with you guys… Sounds worse
than it is to be honest LOL.
Right where to begin.. As you all know I am a very proud Social
Work student, I recently started my placement (well November) and I enjoyed it
for the first couple of weeks, then it started going downhill… FAST!
They teach you what to do during your placement, how to do it,
what to do if you have a problem, who to speak to… that would be your practice
educator.. But what they don’t teach you is what to do when it all goes wrong..
This is what happened with me… things Snowballed swiftly…
I started to have issues to put it lightly, it started off with my
placement learning agreement meeting.. you know in books like Of Mice and Men,
all that foreshadowing you don’t even need to read the end or in films when something
happens and your sat there thinking run away now don’t go towards the noise!
That’s basically what happened, alarm bells started going off in my head, but I
enjoyed it so I stayed and then came the day when I had enough, it wasn't working out so we mutually agreed it was better to not carry on the placement…
The university and my tutor was amazing! She sat through
everything with me and was by my side to support me every step of the way! One
thing I would recommend is that you should take full advantage of your tutors
and make sure you keep them sweet! They will always be there to support and
help you when you need them! So honestly make sure you go to them when you need
help…
And then to top it all off, with the stress of my life and
placement and uni, smarty pants here accidentally submitted my Law essay onto
the originality part and didn't realise that I hadn't actually submitted it
properly until a month later… so I am waiting to hear back in regards to that!
But I haven’t let it put me down and I will continue to work the
hardest I possibly can and to the best of my capabilities regardless of what is
happening and going on!
Anyway to continue on with my series of unfortunate events or
fortunate, depends if you’re a glass half full or empty kind of person… we will
be moving houses soon, as if my life wasn't stressful enough already! And to
top it all off I just painted and wallpapered my room just to sell our house
and move to a new one ¬_¬
All of these early mornings are killing me, I feel like there aren't enough hours in the morning to sleep! I recently started watching Scandal
season 4, if you don’t know about it then it’s about this lawyer who is in love
with the President of the United States but she is also this awesome Lawyer who
wins all of her cases and stuff…
Anyhoooo, I started watching season 4 (The latest one) and I
thought can’t do this, I need to watch it from the beginning or I’ve missed the
whole plot! So I’ve started watching it from season 1, I am currently 2 days in
and on Season 2 already! I really need to get some sleep and stop watching
Scandal when I should be sleeping!
And the WORST in my 4 part series of unfortunate events has to be
50 Shades of Grey, it was quite possibly the worst movie I have ever watched in
my life, I mean I knew it was going to be bad but not as bad as it was, we were
literally sitting in the back laughing at how bad it was! On the plus side
there were some good movies this month, American Sniper was really good! I
think anyone and everyone should watch the film to understand how war can
impact family lives and relationships.
Kingsman was really good, it was funny and really did live up to
the hype! It was different, just when you thought one thing was going to happen
another thing did, not your usual movie!
Anyway for now my series of unfortunate events has ended.. well
probably not to be fair but it’s getting there…
And I am too tired to write anymore, so until the next blog…
