I mention not having much to write about 'cause I'm settled in a routine, but it struck me that i hadn't really mentioned what that routine is so I'll very briefly set that out for you now.
I've finished University and now, after a brief, halfhearted jobsearch I am now working at my old part time job I started while in Uni. I work at a local special school, working with kids who have various learning difficulties. I don't feel particularly comfortable giving details on what I do in my work since it involves kids, and a lot of the data protection stuff is still fresh in my mind so I won't go into specifics, but rather talk about how it impacts my day to day routine.
Due to budget restraints and other factors I can only work in the afternoons, which I find a bit odd, but I'm used to now. I used to work mornings which, aside from getting out of bed, were ok 'cause I had the rest of the day free after. Afternoons is a bit more limiting and segments my day a little more than I'd like. Recently I've found that I can just about get around Chester so it's not too bad and I can look at the shops and get a few things done if I need to.
One of the oddest things is not having assignments or homework. I've just about shaken it off, but for a long while I kept going in feeling that there was something I should have done at home to prepare, then realising with some relief that there wasn't. This is good, but I guess it makes my free time a little more free than it should be.
This could be a problem as I intend to do teacher training next year, and by all accounts it's pretty intense and while I am used to schools and education I'm not too used to a heavy workload and it will no doubt take some getting used to once I get started, but hopefully it will be good all the same.
Well that's more or less it and I should probably leave the ol' keyboard alone once again so that's basically what I'm up to. Pretty much everyone who reads this will already know more or less all of what I said, but I felt like saying it all the same.
