35 kilos down!! YAY!!

I went to the doctors last week, and had to get on the scales, i am now 35 kilos down! YAY!! i want to lose another 5 by christmas, which i know i can do! That is my goal! I need to go clothes shopping again aswell, i over clothes shopping lately haha cos i am in between sizes!

I had a dr appt yesterday to get a mole off my back, the worst bit yesterday was the numbing needle, i hate needles! Then he went to stitch it up and he went through a bit that wasnt numb! that hurt aswell. But today and last night it hurts lots, like a stinging annoying pain, so much for it wont hurt when its getting better! Pfft! he only said that so i didnt chicken out! The sticker thing over the top of it is lifting, as its near where my bra sits, so its been rubbing on that, so i cant have a shower until i go to the chemist at 9 to buy more of them things!

Study wise, i have been thinking, i finish this course in may next year, then in july i can start the diploma, which will be free, as there is not enough diploma certified child care workers around apparently, so i am going to do that, that goes for another 1 and a half years, then i was thinking after that, or maybe a little bit later on, going to uni for 2 years and getting my batchelor of early learning, means i can be a kinder teacher! That would be awesome! that is my main goal, to get that far, and i know i can do it!

Thats about it for now, i have an assingment i need to do, so should do it now whilst everyone else asleep and its quiet :)

Man i have been busy!!

I didnt realise how full on my course would be haha! But still, i am still enjoying it. I have not had time to blog, either been at tafe, studying, doing work trials, or just relaxing doing something else!

I did a work trial at a place near me, i did 6 hours, and left, I took my bank details over there on the monday, trial was on the saturday, reason i left? it was 11 hour shifts, 1 10 min break, 1 30 min break in that time, the pay rate? $14 or so an hour, not over $14 something! on a staurday AND sunday aswell! bugger that! i am not going to slave my guts for them, get treated like crap, like i did, and get that for an hour! They can go jump in a lake for all i care! I still not get paid, but apparently its illegal to do a job trial and not get paid? so we will see what happens!

I only had 2 days at tafe last week, but on my days off, i had things related to tafe that had to be done, on friday i went to a child care centre, and did a book reading, that went ok i reckon, and on the wednesday we went to a child care place and "observed" the enviroment there, the way they have it set up, what they use etc. It was great, learnt heaps from there!

1 more week of school then holidays! Although i know during them holidays i will be doing assingments :( but such is life right?

I still havent been weighed, i will go doctors this week and get weighed, as i need to go see him anyways :) I need to go clothes shopping, i know that much! I have been buying a few items here and there but i need to get some pants, or atleast a belt, i am over pulling my pants up when i walking, and taking the stairs at tafe, that not good with loose pants! have to hold them as walking up them haha!

Food wise, everything has been good, i have not really had no issues, only if i dont have something in the morning i have found i may get stuck during the day some time, but i know to have something in the morning, even if its a coffee at tafe, that helps aswell.

Until next time ...
