Tuesday 7th January

Yes I know, I haven't posted for a few days.

Well tafe is great. I feel human again in that every morning I get up and get the kids and me ready for school and then off we go. I love the fact that I leave the house every morning.

My first day I was LATE. I felt silly driving out there and trying to come up with an excuse why I was late. I felt like I should of bought a note from home. It was so funny. I walked into the room and the teacher looked at me.
I said "Sorry im late Miss"
and she said "Do you have a late note from your mother" and I kinda stood there mouth agape for around 10 to 15 seconds then the class and the teacher just LOST IT.
I had a little giggle after that but for that 10 or 15 minutes I felt sick i the tummy and scared and thought I would have to sit in the naughty corner. Apparently the person who walked in late before me got the same.... So it wasnt THAT bad.

The work well...... lets just say it is getting a bit monotonous. On Monday, my first day everything we did I had already compleated. But until my accreditations come through I still have to attend classes.

It is like school, everyone competing to be the popular person. I am SO over that. I am kind of drifting from group to group. Shannen said to me "Have you made any friends yet?" I told her I am not there to make friends I am there to finish my course.

The class I am in is very easy going, In that everyone will talk to each other. There are three groups of people. There are the youngins, these are the kids who left school within the last 2 years. There is probibly about 7 or 8 of these people.

Then there is the Older people, these are in their late 50's or 60's suprisingly there are about 8 people in this group, but within this group it has kind of split into 2. There are the soft spoken, just want to get their work done group, and then the Housing Commission loud mouth Im the centre of the world group which is 3 of the above mentioned 8.

Then there are probibly 4 others who havent yet settled into a group. I am one of those..... We just do our thing. I kind of drift from the soft spoken oldies who I had lunch with yesterday. They are so cute, complaining that the coffee sucks and the canteen food is too expensive... and then talk to the youngins who are actually quite nice and well mannered. There is also another mother of one in her mid 20's who's daughter has just began school this year. A guy who has only been there for 2 subjects. and ME. I dont care If i dont fit nicely into a group. I am there for one reason and that is to complete my work. I talk to everyone in the class and will always have someone to eat my lunch with but hey it was the same at school. I am not a stereotype person who fits into this group or that.. And I am happy.

Book keeping is SO hard. well not yet but I can see it will be...... Everything else is pretty easy though. And when my accreditations comp through I will be able to commence my internet work (Like I dont know how to use the internet.......) then can do my exam and not have to attend computers any more. That will cut out 10 Hours of work a week. So I will only have to go 14 hours.

Well, thats about all for me for know.

To those who have tried to check in each morning or night and havent seen anything new, IM SORRY..... but now that I am out of the house everyday my evenings are kinda full with washing and HOMEWORK. Cleaning and unfreezing my brain which the teachers seem to enjoy OVERLOADING each and every lesson.

Promise I will try to keep posting..

Keep safe, have fun
