This Damn Assignment... Week 16

Hey everyone,
I've been away for ages as I've not been at uni and went on holiday! Then we moved into he new flat and only just got the internet! So massive apologises for not giving any updates.

The new flat is lush, I love it. It feels like home, yay *claps*

I called my placement earlier and found out I am working Monday, Wednesday and Sunday 07:00-19:30!! That's 12 1/2 hours! I honestly don't know how I'm going to do it, but at least I just get stuck in, and that means I have 4 days off :)
So excited to start!!

Well at the moment I am procrastinating. I'm sat here trying to start (and finish) my assignment of 1500 words. The biggest problem I have is I never allow myself to get sucked in and just get on with it. I love to procrastinate 'til the last second :(
I'm writing my assignment on respect, they kind of let us do whatever we want, and I really want to do well.

Last week I had my OCSE; a practical exam. I was so so scared! They weren't allow to express any emotion so my heart was racing, I was shaking. it was so scary. I couldn't answer a couple of the questions because I was so nervous my mind went blank :( Should have passed though!

Anyway I need to do this essay.... :/

Speak soon guys :)
