Holiday Time!

Wow! This past week's been a bit crazy busy.

I had two interviews and an observation lesson to prepare! But...I now have a job lined up for September. Phew! One less thing to worry about.

Next stop: driving license.

Very pleased that it's the holidays though. A chance to catch up with some friends, and properly prepare for the official uni observation lesson which is the first week back :/ (I'm very worried about this one), and mark all the assessments.

Cannot believe I have only three weeks left in school. It is flying by.

Busy

On any other uni course this would be the time of year to be worrying about exams/ beginning the wind down for summer. Not this one.

It's been a very busy fortnight and the next four weeks look like much of the same.

In the last two weeks I've bumbled across to the West Coast for an interview (didn't get the job, but it was a good experience), completed my final university essay, fixed a date for my formal observation from the university, passed both skills tests, applied for more jobs, and did lots of teaching. I cannot believe how quickly this placement is going. Only four weeks left in school! Eeek.

Before the end of the course, I need to organise my folders, book driving lessons, get a job, sort a quick trip to London, make some big leaps in teaching- prove to myself that I can do this, produce a cracking observation lesson for the university mentor, produce a different observation lesson for the ITT coordinator, and finally, finally, finally make some headway with y9

But tonight, I stop worrying about all of that and watch Eurovision!
