reflections

i have reflected upon my work practice at placement now for 4 weeks. for example, this week i reflected on how i finally feel more like a team member and a youth worker than just another youth sitting at the side and how i feel like im doing a lot of work and progressing with it. i also however reflected on how much fun a 47 hour week unpaid can be.

not everyone would want to work with kids, most people i know hate them, even though their reasons for hating them are probably because they see a little of theselves a few years previously insde the youths. but i do, i dont know why but its great fun, challenging, scary, fun - i get to play games sometimes and get paid. its like bein a id forever, but not in a creepy michael jackson way......

as well as placement reflection i realised that i passed all my essays bar the easiest one there was this year. sure i may have only got an E for one about wind turbines but a C for youth work and a C for my dissertation and im happy. all i gotta do is complete my resist and placement and technically im ready for graduation. the question then i pose is what to do now?

work? volunteer? sleep? travel? eat? move home? stay in glasow? start up my own show where i go undercover and cause all kinds of mischief? - what to do, what to do?

im not the best in my year, im not saying i am - but im not bad at what i do, and i like it. so i could do something with it. i just need to decide when..... before all the jobs dissapear.....
