Panicking about tomorrow. I have to go into college.
Shona told me last week that if I'm not in tomorrow for this assessment then I can't do the course.
I don't even know what this assessment is about. 500 words about what happened when I talked to Kerry about bringing the guides in to sing war songs to the residents? WTF? I didn't even USE 500 words when I explained it to her. It was a short conversation.
"Part of my placement is to organise an activity that's centred around one of the residents' needs. I came here before with the guides and we sang war songs to the residents. I thought it'd be good to do that again for people like David because I know he likes listening to music in his room (David is wheelchair bound, blind and almost totally deaf) so I thought it'd be good since the residents could get up and sing along with us and stuff..."
"Yep, that sounds good. We welcome any activity here, really. But if that's what you want to do, that's fine with me."

I have to write 500 words about that conversation and the one where I said exactly the same thing to my guide leader and she agreed it would be okay as long as my placement supervisor didn't mind. I also get around 200 words of notes. I COULD WRITE THE WHOLE ASSESSMENT IN 200 WORDS.
What am I meant to say? "It was a nice day when I was at placement. It was sunny outside but cold and Jean wanted to go outside but we told her it wasn't the best idea because it was freezing. Anyway, Kerry was sorting out the afternoon meds and there wasn't anything I needed to do so I sat beside her and explained.." Yeah. Not happening.
I mean, I guess I could write about the needs I'm supposed to have analysed with David (social, emotional, cognitive, physical and something else I forgot. Mental maybe but I think that's cognitive...) and explain how I think getting the guides in could meet those needs and then talk about how I went about organising it. Speaking to Fiona, explaining what I needed the guides to do, talking to Kerry about what I was planning and deciding on the best time for it. I could maybe stretch that to 500 words.
I don't know. I have so much time off soon with the 2 week "spring break", the 4 days over easter, the royal wedding, considering I'm only in on Mondays and a lot of those holidays cover Mondays, I'd say that I'll be getting a lot of time off.

I'm working next Friday and Sunday so if I put the Ł40 from that into the bank on Monday, I can maybe look into booking the train tickets this week. I'm pretty sure I'm working the week after so I can put that in the bank too and get some stuff online I've been wanting.
Speaking of which. How hard can it be to find the box set of one season of a TV show? Apparently very hard. Pokémon season one comes in three sets. I can't seem to find the three of them together. Instead I've been watching them online and dad will freak if he finds out. The first season has SO many episodes (at least 50 I think) and dad has this idea that watching things online contributes to the download limit. And we recently found out that the limit isn't 40GB per month like we thought, it's actually 20GB which is just wonderful.

So yes. Feeling very ranty and angsty today.

ALSO. MY DAD FREAKING PUSHED ME OUT THE WAY ON FRIDAY. I was really upset with him. I got back from Brownies and he went to give mum a key just as I was going to step into the house. So I moved back to give him room and he just pushed me up the steps into the house. He knew I was pissed, I didn't talk to him for the rest of the night. But I forgot I was mad at him on Saturday and remembered I wasn't talking to him after we talked in the conservatory and made jokes about the furniture. Trust me to forget.
I was just emotional because I had a really bad dream the night before where I was never going to see my parents again and I was so convinced it was real that I made plans to commit suicide so I wouldn't have to deal with it.
Guess it's lucky Rie was around since I was a crying wreck when I woke up. Fun times.
