Hey. Thought i would write a quick blog before i go back to methody and cant write anything. Yesterday i went to that starting as a student day, it was ok bits of it were really good and bits of it werent, but the thing is that i felt a bit old! Which is utterly ridiculous because i'm not even 20 yet. Some of my young people from methody were there (senior CU ones from last year) and then some girls from the year below me from school and i felt old! But there were also some other ones i there who had taken years out, like Julie and Naomi who worked with PCI last year. I would advise anyone going straight to uni next year to go to it though because it was good, just alot of the stuff we did was about living on your own for the first time and i did that all last year, so it wasn't amazingly helpful for me.

One thing that was really good about it was that i met about six people doing my course at stran so at least there will be some friendly faces. I was talking to Wesley Hamilton after church and he said that the thing is not losing your enthusiasm and passion for being with young people and that thats the most important thing about teaching, which i thought was really good advice. And i was talking to Daphne Hamilton (Dr Hamilton's wife) which was nice too.

Right i'm going to go now but i'll maybe post another blog before i go to methody - back for chapel and a staff meeting! Bye!
