So Autumn Soul has been and gone - it was good. I loved night stewarding, you really get to know people when you night steward - the guys from Mossley are amazing. During the day felt a bit at a loss for things to do - probably because i told lisa not to put too much on my badge for during the day, but stewarding was such a better experience than last year.

During the week i didnt really do much - was off sick on monday, went into school on Tuesday, off sick on wed, stran on thursday and friday.

Friday duty in Methody- not quite sure whats going on in boarding at the mo - lots of tension and slabbering and general nastiness between staff, which is hard to live with and its very hard to hold my tongue and not join in, especially when it is about people that i struggle with myself. But i wont be about for 3 weeks due to Teaching Practice (TP) so thats one temptation away.

Kids Club yesterday -went well, i think that its time to change somethings though, i have a vision of what i want kids club to be like and i think that now we are ready to start experimenting with the format slightly. I think its taken a while to get settled into post-Clare kids club but now that we are settled we can start to dream and change.

Church today was good- maybe the first time i've heard ken preach. Spoke to lots of people after and got a lot of things sorted out and i'm excited about opportunities coming up.

Start TP tomorrow and am looking forward to it. I dont think that i will be teaching as much as i should because there are so many other things happening right now in the school but its all very exciting and is stuff that will be useful for when i am actually a teacher. Like field trips and stuff.

Also re-reading my way through the purpose driven life book, ive only got as far as day 23 or so before but now i am determined to stick at it til the end. Its going well.
