I got a bit of a shock this afternoon when I was looking at my Uni email. I intended to find out when my Summer School essay was due back from marking when I found several emails to do with the Social Work bachelor I'm about to start. Tomorrow, now today, there is an orientation day happening in Launceston, which is 2.5 hours away from where I live, that I shall be attending. It's all meant to be and it will all work out. It's just very last minute, that's all. It's on the perfect day too as I had nothing planned and I just got paid from working at the Hobart Cup on Monday the 8th so I will be able to buy petrol and some snacks. I'm looking forward to it actually. When I first read about it I was a bit stunned at the quickness of it all so I got mum to call me and she gave me the push I needed to confirm that I was going to go. I was in a bit of shock I guess and just needed a bit of reinforcement. I love sharing this stuff with my mum. She said she would have come with me but she works on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays and it was all very very short notice. I think I'll be all right though. If I get lost, there will be people on campus to give me directions as I reckon I'll need them. I'm going to have to get up at 6am to shower and eat some breakfast then get on the road by or a little before 7am. I need to stop at Woolworths to get some food supplies and breakfast but I might do that once I'm out of the city as I don't want to get stuck in slow traffic. I think it'll be a very informative day and I'll get to meet the teachers. Jess, my sister-in-law's half sister, who has done this course said that Sonya, one of the teachers, is great and very inspirational so I'm looking forward to meeting her. Jess also said she will look out for a job for me in the industry as I'm only doing waitressing now and it would be better to be in the field and put to practice what I'm learning. With the course there is a whole section dedicated to work experience but getting started earlier won't hurt. For now though I should get to bed and get as much sleep as I can. Hopefully I'll get a decent amount despite my tendency to get to sleep not quickly when it counts.
