Just over a week ago i finished 4 weeks placement in a learning difficulties scheme, it was great, the people were lovely, i learnt more than i thought about how people cope with such problems in their life, and a few people taught me things that will stay with me and change my views on things i previously had. They gave me a basil plant when i left that they had grown from a seed with a hand made pot that some of the students helped with, it was so sweet, here is a pic of said plant.
Got my nutrition skill signed off in my PLD book that i have to fill in and also managed to complete my 3000 word essay with out pulling my hair out, well i say that, but i am sure there are a few bald patches somewhere!
Now i have got one more placement to go this year, 2 weeks in a nursery for my child placement, i have no idea how working in a nursery contributes to nursing, it is all very strange, all my other uni friends who have done their nursery placement have said it was so pointless. We are not allowed to actually do any nursing so not sure what i am expected to do, but id rather stay at home and play with my child who i have had to see less due to various uni work and placement commitments.
I literally have hardly any of this year left, it really has gone so fast, i can't believe it, everybody says it does but till you are where i am now you just don't notice.
