What a week!!!

I have had quite a busy week, full of adventures!! Some good, some not so good!!

Monday, I caught the bus in the morning to go to college and it was packed!! I could barely move!!! The bus was late arriving at the station, so I had to run to catch my train! I just managed to get on it and the train started to move!
In the afternoon, we got let out of college at about 4.10 and the train leaves Folkestone at 4.17! I was running down the road, when I realised I had forgotton my bag, so I had to go back to college and collect it! I had to catch the 5.25 train!!

Tuesday, in the afternoon, I thought I had plenty of time to catch the train back to Ashford, as I was 2 minutes early! How wrong was I!!!!
The train was waiting at the station when I arrived, so I quickly pressed the button, so I could be let on!! Their was a man waiting behind the train doors and he wouldn't let me on! I was furious!!! I even shouted, which is quite unlike me!!!

Wednesday, the train was cancelled to Folkestone, so none of the Ashford people could go to college! I had to study at home, which is better, because I am in my own environment!

Congratulations to my cousin Erin and Tim, who have had a baby girl called Eithne! She is superb!! I can't wait to see her in December!!
Well done to my Auntie Rebecca too, who has become a grandma!

My first work placement!

Friday, I was at my first work placement, at a primary school in Ashford! I had a really brilliant time, but it was much harder than it looks!!
I don't think I ever want to become a teacher in the near future!!
I was put with a year 3 class, they were very well behaved, until the teacher went out of the room! It was really scary!! The teacher has promised that she will never leave me alone with the class again!
They had a harvest service at the school, so we got to sing some songs that I haven't sang in a long time!

Today, I was at church, where we all got prayed for! It was really encouraging, and we even got given grapes to eat!!

My cousin Erin's baby is due soon, I am really looking forward to seeing her, because she will be my second cousin! Auntie Rebecca is out in Canada at the moment, they are probably having the baby shower about now!

Assignments.

Yesterday, I had the day off! I get every Thurday off and I have been off today, because our work placements haven't started yet! I am doing my first work placement in a primary school, I was going to do it in my old primary school, but they wouldn't have me!
I can't wait to do a work placement with the elderly, as I have a soft spot for them!!

I have been given my first assignment, which is Physiology! It is fairly difficult, but I am thankful that my dad knows quite a bit to do with the subject!

On Monday, we have to do a Food, hygiene course, where you get a certifacte! I hope you get to taste food!!!

I have started at the library now, it was absolutley brilliant!! I almost gave someone a dvd without the dvd inside the case, but it was still excellent!

Today, I am going to Louise's house, which I am looking forward to! I miss her a lot, as we don't go to the same school now!!

I'm at college.

I have now been at college for three days, I have been enjoying it so far!

The first day, I was very nervous! I almost ran out of the train, because I was so scared! It is much better than school though!

I am there until 5.00 on Monday's and Wednesday's, I get the day off on Thursday's, and I am at a work placement on Friday's!!
We haven't really got started into our course yet, as we have just been getting used to how college is going to be! I am really looking forward to the work placements!

On Tuesday, I went to Bluewater with my Auntie Rebecca, which was excellent!!
We had Krispy Kreme doughnuts first, I had an apple and cinnamon one and an original glazed!!!
My Auntie brought me a pair of new trousers to wear to college, they are extremely comfortable! Thank you for taking me Auntie Rebecca!

Starting college!

The day is almost here, I am about to start college! I am excited, but nervous at the same time!
I am really worried that I will get lost, or have nobody to talk to!!

I start working at the library on Saturday, well I get trained on Saturday! It should be excellent working there, especially as I love books! I am reading a book at the moment called Chasing the Dragon, by Jackie Pullinger, which is brilliant!

Today, is my dad's 50th birthday! On Saturday, we had an open house for him! Lots of people came and brought really good presents!! His main present was a dvd camcorder, which was from a range of different people!

I am looking forward to tomorrow, as I am going shopping in Bluewater with my Auntie Rebecca! I am definitely going to have some delicious Krispy Kreme doughnuts!!

My exam results!

On Thursday, I collected my G.C.S.E results!! I was extremely pleased with what they were!
I got 7 c's and 2 b's! I was especially pleased with what I got in maths, because that has been my hardest subject all the way through school!

I had a brilliant day on Friday, as I went to Louise's house for the day! She had pink put in her hair, but it didn't come out quite right, so she is going back to the hairdresser on Tuesday! We went to the outlet centre, and had Spudulike potatoes, which are just the best!!!

Yesterday, we went to the American diner as a celebration dinner for me! I had a wax works, which is a hot dog topped with American cheese and fried onions!! It was yummy!!!

Being confident!

Today, I have been baking cinnamon rolls, they taste delicious too! They were quite difficult to make, but the end result was definitely worth it!
It feels really odd not having to go to school, or to do exams! I feel a bit empty! This will all change though when I go to South Kent College in September, as I will be busy, busy, busy!! College will definitely be different from school!

I am quite worried about going to College, because it is like a totally different world from school! I will also be having to catch a train every day, which is quite frightening! There will be many different people!
I am not as worried as I was, because someone special told me that I should be confident in what I believe!!

I miss you Louise a lot, and I miss you talking about you know who!!! I especially miss all the fun lunchtimes!!
