Time for an update!
I am absolutely exhausted and there is a very good reason for my tiredness. Today was my fourth day of work experience at CNS, my old high school! I'm doing a three week work placement, both observing the classes/teaching techniques, and participating in a role similar to that of a teaching assistant. I have been offered a variety of classes to sit on, ranging from year 7 (aged 11) up to year 13 (18) and I have found it to be an excellent experience to observe the differences between the younger groups and the older ones.
I do not spend all of my time in the classes, however; in my allocated free/non-teaching periods I have plenty of class resources to make! This week I helped my mentor by laminating and cutting up some Fairy-tale themed playing cards in preparation for a group of year 8s. It is important that I get the chance to do resource preparation as well as simply observing the lessons because it gives me a chance to experience the same responsibilities that the teachers have. I'm having soooooo much fun doing it all! It's basically a chance to play, all day, 5 days a week! :op
I've seen a lot of my old teachers around the school and have actually sat in on lessons with some of the teachers who taught me when I was at the school! Sitting in the staffroom with these people is pretty surreal; the staffroom used to be forbidden territory and the teachers essentially disappeared at break and lunchtimes. But now I know . . . I know that the other members of staff have first names, they have lives outside of the school and they spend a lot of their own free time planning and preparing interesting classwork for us, the students! I can easily say that in a very short length of time, I have developed a vast amount of respect for my "colleagues" and consider many of them to be good friends already! All of the members of staff have been friendly and welcoming towards me, offering kind advice relating to both teaching as a career, my studies and my future teacher training. A few members of staff in particular have kindly taken me under their wings and are giving me so much help and guidance that I cannot help but look forward to my career as a teacher :o)
Speaking of jobs, for the first time in ages I have some paid work planned. For 16 hours this weekend I will be acting as a care assistant for a boy with severe learning disabilities. It's a decent job as the boy is sweet and his parents are lovely so it will be a good 2 days work and very reasonable pay! It is only temporary, but it will give me a bit of extra money; very relevant right now as I only have £82.03 in the bank! :op
Anyways, I have school again tomorrow so I'd better go get some sleep. I was up at 6:15am this morning and will have to be up no later than 6:45am tomorrow.
Will update again soon! (Hopefully when I'm a little richer!)

By the Sea . . . (Take 2 + Rellies)
Yay! Great day out today! I’m so clever, it was such a great idea! ;op hehe!
Dad drove us to Fakenham where we had a little wander and a little walk(again bought postycards for the grandrents), before we went for lunch at a Hungry Horse pub. Was a bit annoying that they didn’t have many healthy options (am trying so hard to be good right now), it seemed everything on the menu was smothered in “melted cheese”! We chatted and joked, generally enjoying being together; with Dad driving around the country for work, all week, every week, and Mum doing full working weeks, every week too, we very rarely get to spend this kind of quality time together. It was lovely :o)
Dad dozed in the car as Mum drove us to Cromer (notice t’is a favourite town of mine? :op) where we parked, grabbed coats and the camera and headed off for a walk along the beach. We wandered first one way and then back along in the other direction, climbing the cliff steps here and taking lots of photographic evidence along the way!
[Will upload some piccies when I can get the camera loaded on this pooter.]
As it grew chilly and the wind picked up, we turned towards the town and, picking up ice-creams as we passed through, we made our way back to the car.
All in all we have had a wonderful day and I have been so ecstatically happy today, happier than I have felt in a LONG time; we were all together, all happy, all free for the whole day, and I felt we connected as a family. We always do when we find the time to be together. It is so difficult to stay close-knit when we are spread thinly across the country for most of the year, but somehow we manage it :o)
I love my family dearly and wouldn’t change them for the world. I was willing time to stop as we walked along the beach together, but the day DID end and now I am tired. There will be many days like this in the future, no question about it, and I can’t wait!
However, for now, the fresh air and the childish bouncing around I have partaken in today has knackered me totally, so I must make tracks!
Peace out, hehe! xxxx

SPORE!!!!!!!
YAY! YAY! YAY!
SPORE has been released, FINALLY, after two years of waiting and poring over press releases and game reviews, and I HAVE A COPY! God-bless Gamestation for having a pre-ordering service and free delivery :op Hehehe!
The problem at the moment is, our main family computer is too old to run the game (failing in both the graphics card and video driver department) and Adam’s pc, which should be new and fast enough does not have access to the internet so I cannot register the game!
This is rubbish. I can’t believe I now have the game but can’t play it! It is a mean twist of fate :o(
I’m trying to convince Dad to let me buy my brother a wireless dongle for his computer so we can set up our wireless router, but he wants to do his own research into the “Dongle Domain” and exhaust all non-spending routes before we can approach my suggestions. . .
*sigh*
Oh well, not much I can do about it right now so I guess I’ll stop moaning. . .
I’ve organised a ‘Family Day-Out’ for tomorrow.
Will update later when I know how it went! xxxx

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL!!!!!! :oD
Today is Mike’s 21st, so this blog is officially dedicated to “he-that-be-old”! :op
I know he had a lot planned for today and I have to admit, I was no different. Today I had decided to spend some time at home with the ‘Fam’ and to generally get some important stuff done.
First thing I did was to settle some bills for my house in West Drayton. With that sorted quickly on the automated ‘phone service, I spent the day keeping Mum company whilst she ironed an entire wardrobe of clean clothes, keeping Adam company whilst he chugged away diligently at some PowerPoint slides for his Psychology revision, and keeping Dad well equipped with mugs of coffee whilst he fixed the kitchen patio-door and worked on the computer! Adam actually taught me some very interesting things relating to both Crime and Education as he did his preparatory work for his A2 year. I learnt all about the “Skinner Box”, operant conditioning and positive and negative reinforcements! Marvel at my new informed self! :op
The Psychology stuff Adam has been doing with me has really sparked my interest in the subject; considering in sixth form I didn’t want to touch its course content with a barge pole (symbolic or otherwise). I’m thinking seriously about doing some research into the subject myself. Though it’ll have to wait ‘til after this year; the strict regime I plan to set myself this year will not be easy to stick to! With all the reading and note-taking I have to do at the start of this term, I shall barely have time to eat and sleep, let alone get into researching my dissertation (which I should be doing if I want to pass), or getting a part-time job (which I NEED to do if I plan to buy anything or go out at all this year!).
Anyways, after this eventful day keeping my family occupied (and myself by proxy), it was time for Mike’s party! The last, unfortunately, to be held at no. 52 Onley Street as he and Lei are moving out on Wednesday. T’will be a sad day for much fun was to be had in that house.
Though I wasn’t drinking all evening, we all had a great time and hopefully gave the old man a great night to remember :o)
Huggles and Birthday wishes to you Mike!
Here are some of the pics I stole from Facebook:
(Mike being his usual-Photogenic-self)
(Ellie being her usual-Photogenic-self)
(Me being my usual-Photogenic-self, with Mike)
THE DRINK....
(I wouldn't want to even hazard a guess at the muck that was poured into this...)

By the Sea . . .
“Oooh I know you’d love it!” to quote Mrs Lovett if I may? :op
Yesterday, I decided to surprise my best friend by kidnapping her and stealing her away to the coast for the day. I will miss being so close to the Seaside when my family moves back to Berkshire as it will no longer be easy to hop on the train to Sheringham, as we did today. I arrived at Ellie’s house by 8:30am (having hitched a ride with a parental taxi), grabbed a banana for brekkie and one of Ellie’s jumpers (Oh, and her) and we were on our way! Ellie is lucky enough to live close to the city centre of Norwich so it is extremely quick and easy to walk down to the Riverside station from her home.
Once on the train I grew more excited about my plans for the day, though as the train was fairly crowded we tried to restrain ourselves, just a little . . . When we landed in the dingy, drizzly, greyness that was Sheringham’s little town, we decided that I was hungry. So, in order to give the weather a chance to pick up a little, we rummaged through Budgens’ wares for food stuffs. We were lucky today because by the time we emerged it was already starting to look a lot brighter and by the time we reached the sand/shingles the sun was beaming down at us :o) Ellie and I played around for a while skimming stones across the sand and into the surf before we got bored and decided to walk to Cromer. We are simple people :op To be honest, although it may not sound very exciting to play with small stones or amble along the beach to the next-but-one Seaside town, it was so relaxing to know that we had the whole day to ourselves and we had nothing to rush home for. It was Ellie’s first full day off from work for a while and we were determined to enjoy it!
The walk was really not very far, but it took us over two hours to make it to Cromer! We were walking slowly because some old dear crashed into Ellie’s ankle with a Waitrose trolley yesterday and gave her a nasty graze which impeded her speed. We also revelled in the sandy walk, dodging between the waves and clambering over the slippery groyns. It was fun to do what Ellie and I do best (natter) in a different environment.
Once we were into Cromer, Ellie was famished so we headed for food again. We found a lovely little café away from the beach and closer into the town itself where we could sit and eat in peace. We also discovered a new restaurant/pubby place, which looks fantastic! We made plans to return for dinner that evening because it has a lot of choice (especially important for Ellie, as being a vegetablarian tends to restrict one somewhat!) and the prices seemed very reasonable. After lunch we just lounged around on the sand, eating lemon sorbet/strange ice cream mixtures and laughing at the other people enjoying the beach :op
I have to admit that no matter how many times I go, or how old I get, I think the Sea-side will always retain a powerful hold over me and my emotions. Churches get me too. Whenever I visit either, I feel a vast wave of awe crash over me and any pent-up emotions come flooding to the surface, forcing me to pay them attention. If you ever join me by the Sea, don’t be surprised to see me lost in thought as the atmosphere and setting alone can send me into a trance-like state. To be dramatic, the Sea is the key to my inner-most thoughts. It is my happy place. Hehehe.
That being said, I couldn’t live there. It’s strange how exhausting it is to breathe in the fresh Sea air. We found ourselves feeling very dozy as the afternoon progressed and, when the beach had almost emptied, we decided it was time to go home. As we waited for the 9 o’clock train, we sat outside The Station House pub and I wrote postcards to my grandparents (feeling very much like a tourist in my own county). We had very filling meals there too (we were too tired to walk back down the hill to the other restaurant). All in all it was a fantastic day and I really enjoyed myself! I think Ellie had fun too :o) I look forward to doing it again soon, and I’ll be sure to document it for your enjoyment too!

Late-Summer/Early Autumn cleaning!
My, my, I am proud of myself today: I've managed to cut my brother's hair into a much nicer, shorter style than his previous Wolverine look, AND I've spent a good part of the day clearing out the clutter from my bedroom :o)
It's good to have a decent clear out every now and then, you discover things you had completely forgotten about. Now for a writer (and for me) that tends to be embarassing old poems that don't even belong with Hallmark, and very short stories. I did find one poem that I was quite impressed with, though, based on 'Animal testing'. . . delightful, eh? The thing that surprised me most about this one is that it doesn't rhyme. I mean, I know I've written poems with no rhyme scheme or rhythm before, just to attempt a wider range of styles, but I find those poems so unsatisfying to write and so clumsy to read that I rapidly returned to writing poetry in my own lilting fashion and soon destroyed all evidence of the experimental writing. Or so I thought...
Though I have admitted to being fairly amused by this hidden treasure, I am reluctant to publish it on the blog. Does anybody have any thoughts as to whether I should share it or not?
Back to the tidying. . .
I can now see carpet. This is new. . . I don't remember having carpet. . . hmm. . .
Other discoveries for today include:
I'm hoping that by the time I have finished tidying this room I'll also have enough space (and fewer spiders to disturb) in order to move the room round a bit, make it look a bit different. It's been over a year since I rotated the furniture, and if you've ever lived with me, you'll know that this is something I like to do regularly. It throws the spiders off you see. . .
Right, well, I suppose I'd better get back to work; at the moment, my bed is so covered in belongings that even Stig would be uncomfortable sleeping there (apologies for literary reference, but if you don't know who Stig is, you shouldn't be reading my blog. Loser).

Other discoveries for today include:
- An essay on 'Unrequited love' in Twelfth Night which made me cringe (I can clearly see how vast the improvement in my essay writing has been since I left CNS at the end of my A levels! It seems so alien now, an essay without footnote referencing. . . WAS there really a time when I was oblivious to the Harvard referencing system?),
- A photograph showing me at the age of 7 or 8, with Adam aged 4 or 5, Andrew Davidson (same age as me) and his little sister Fiona (same age as Adam). Andrew and I look perfectly normal children; my brother on the other hand was wearing one of my dresses and a plastic beaded necklace, with Fiona by his side dressed in Adam's full Batman costume. They both look far too happy in their cross-dressing . . mind you, I seem to remember it being my idea, . . . what does that say about me? :op
- More than a few items of clothing I regret ever wearing, yet also wish I could still fit into,
- About three million plastic bags!

Dissertation dreams
So, I still have about 35 days left before I return to Uni for my third year at Brunel and already I am clamouring to go back! I miss my friends, the classes, even the work; all this AND I am getting excited about beginning my dissertation project.
The dissertation is a new concept for me, though I have been both looking forward to it and dreading it for a long, long time! Very sad, I'm sure, but it bears the appeal of a new subject to discover, very few boundaries other than word limit (10,000) and the opportunity to write an intelligent document with a higher value than regular essay-assignments. I have chosen to compose my project on the subject of Fairytales as I have never studied them to the extent that I would have liked and would very much like to discover more about the origins and adaptations of the genre.
My particular focus within this very broad subject keeps changing, though these are a few of my initial ideas:
If I can get an original slant on this project I will have vastly higher marks, as it is one of the significant purposes of the dissertation project (to research a topic in a completely new and original way). I emailed my tutor this evening to explain my new ideas and we'll just have to wait and see what she says about it. I've not been taught by her before, so it's a new experience all round, but she seems really friendly and has been pretty fast to reply to previous introductory emails :o)
Anyway, I think I have been plenty unsociable this evening so far (having disappeared up here to the computer almost as soon as I finished eating), so I shall go mingle with the Fam for a bit.

My particular focus within this very broad subject keeps changing, though these are a few of my initial ideas:
- The changing role of the woman in the Fairytale genre – tracking the changes to traditional fairytales and folktales from around the world as they are influenced by the Feminist movement:
>> Modern interpretations of classic fairytales and feminist manipulation of certain character roles (e.g. Dahl, Carter),
>> Analysis of generic character stereotypes, e.g. Fairy godmother, Prince charming, Evil Stepmother, Wicked witch etc… - Investigating the earliest traditional European fairytales and contextual examination of their influences on modern culture and society.
- Delving into the horror element in popular fairytales: Where has the traditional horror disappeared to? Are fairytales still as horrifying as they were meant to be? If not, why not? Is it tru that Walt Disney etc. has extracted the crucial pain and terror from the original stories? Why are modern children not allowed to experience these classic tales as they were intended? Do we really think that today’s children would not cope with such horror? What was the purpose of horrifying elements to a story? Are the stories meaningless without this element?
If I can get an original slant on this project I will have vastly higher marks, as it is one of the significant purposes of the dissertation project (to research a topic in a completely new and original way).
