At the end of this week there will be a mass departure from Armidale of all students who wish to go home for the holidays. Yes, that time of the year is upon us again - the time when first term has come nearly to an end. But hey...can I complain about my first term of my last semester? No. It was only four and a half weeks long. Yes, thanks to the early Easter holidays, Uni didn't start until it's usual time this year, but decided to break for the normal Easter holidays - and make term two an awfully long one. Yes, we still have the (roughly) sixteen week term, so...you do the maths for how long term two is.
Over the last two weekends I have been to two graduations which have made me realise how much I am looking forward to graduating myself. It should be great, to finally get out of college and move back home. Oh, wait! That's not what I'm supposed to do. :) But to see good friends depart from Armidale, and me not knowing when I am likely to see them again (not for a couple of years, at least, in one case, I know), it was good to be able to wish them good luck and all that for the future.
I can apply for an interview with the Department of Education and Training anytime this week pretty much so that after my last practicum in June I can go straight into teaching from the beginning of term 3 this year. That will be exciting...interesting...and a bit scary. But it should be good. I might be able to earn a wage soon. Woohoo!
Anyway...nothing else really exciting has happened.
