Haha..I’m not very creative with my title. Oh well. So, what have I been up to?
Well, I’ve stopped working on Saturdays so I can actually enjoy a weekend and not be heaps tired on Sundays (which can be pretty full on) at church and with friends – and so I can also hang out with Karl. Now I’m only working 4 hours on both Thursday and Friday afternoons which is nice as my feet don’t get as sore.
I’m now into my third week of uni and trying to get a prac placement. Waiting for a school to get back to me and if they can’t have me I’ll have to keep ringing around. I don’t like ringing around. I get all nervous talking on the phone to people I don’t know and I am sure my explaining myself to the person on the other end comes out all wrong! ugh. Oh well, practice makes perfect.
Anyway, I’ve been looking at my options for next year. As in, wondering what else I could do with my degree (Bachelor of Ed- Early Childhood) besides teaching. It seems like teaching is expected of us who are studying this course though (I guess ’cause it is an ‘education’ course). But, I’ve been seriously wondering whether teaching is what I want to do. At the moment I’m looking at being a Child Safety Officer with DOCS (department of Child Safety). Yes, stressful but there’s not the constant planning and disciplining 30 kids all at once. I’ll keep looking around and praying for guidance about what God wants me to do.
On a lighter (and less stressful) note, it’s a gorgeous morning. I took Max for a walk and we walked along Myall Creek (well, Max ran along most of the time once I took him off his leash sniffing, swimming, and generally being happy) to the oval. It was nice with the sun shining, dew still on the grass, not many people around.
Sunday arvo we (friends from church) went to the skate park to have lunch and ride around. Karl’s got a free BMX bike from one of our friends and he’s really getting into BMXing which is great:).
Anyways, enough randomness. I better stop writing and start doing uni work.
