Caregiving and School

As you know, I started my caregiving orientation at the end on September.. And it is now nearing the end of October!!

I completed orientation last weekend and Sunday night and last night I did my first official shifts by myself.  They actually went pretty well, I worked Sunday 3-9- originally I was doing 7-1 but Mum wanted to swap shifts with me so that she could go to a baby shower.  In the end it worked out perfectly as I got asked to baby sit on the saturday night.  After work on sunday I got home and started on the finishing of my classics internal which I finished by 1am, and then as I was packing my bag for school I realized that I had also got an english internal due the next morning at 9am too! So I had to quickly finish that off and print it before going to bed.  I ended up watching Fridays episode of Home and Away before going to bed a 2am.

I went to school on 4-5 hours of sleep, and then had to go to work 3-11 that afternoon too! So after finishing all my internals for this week (I only have ONE more due forever- which is done as a test over three class periods) having very little sleep Sunday night, and then being up until 12.30am this morning, I will get to go home after school tonight and blob out and watch the episodes of tv programs that I have missed over the last five days!

On the topic of school... I have exactly two weeks and one day until I'm finished!!!!

More on my tv habits one day... soon :)

New job... (another)

Its official!!

I have a new job!  Caregiving.

The uniform... (with black pants/ skirt)

I started caregiving orientation Monday just gone.  After a day of that with Wendy who actually also lives with us I got stuck back cleaning as one of the main cleaners are on holiday and they had no other back up for it- I have been cleaning at the hospital since the end of last year.  Next week I am suppose to be doing the rest of my orientation as a caregiver and then I will be working in the weekends and between exams until I am officially on summer break after all my exams are over and done with and I don't have to go back to high school ever!!!
