I am finding myself deflated at the moment and this placement coming up really isnt helping matters. I feel this last placement is abit of a burdon as i have enough to be getting on with as it is.
I know this is perhaps uncalled for but i feel there is a greater need to bein lecutres more and i would have preferred lectures all this week. I have totally sturggled with my last essay and i feel it has come down to the lack of information and knowledge we should have been given in our first and second trimester.
I am lucky enough not to be going to another CAREERS SCOTLAND PLACEMENT!! thank godness as to be honest, we arent going to get a job there and we have already been on placement there for 3 weeks, so why the need to go back there again. I have also been looking for jobs and have had no such luck at all, so the worry of this essay, group work and placement....and the fact we finish up in like 5 weeks is all starting to mount on top of me.
My point is really could have done without last placement and that we could have been spending the time on things more important. Now this is only my option so i understand others will totally disagree with me!

:( you sound like you have it bad! I feel the same about course work and feel like it's been a bit all over the place. I think you should look at your placement as an opportunity to network and perhaps get your foot in some doors. I always find that I learn more by doing placements as they are set in the real world wherby the job is being carried out and not just read about. I've been on the goodmoves web sight and did see a few jobs that we could maybe apply for only thing is they were not in Edinburgh. Stay positive Miss Loopylou as you will get the essay done, you will do the placement and you will be free from this course in 5 weeks! There is light at the end of the tunnel! :) Keep your chin up! x
ReplyDeleteI agree my lovely, it does seem a little too much so close to the end of the course and with so much work to do but do try to see it as a positive time! You are gaining more useful knowledge and practical skills on placement! I think maybe a week would have been long enough this time round but 2 days in and I am really enjoying being back into the workplace, which of course is very useful, as have been getting used to late starts and early finishes at uni!! Take care and as casper says, 5 weeks and it will all be over!!
