wow, the time's going quickly!
i've finished first placement here in Edinburgh, and have settled nicely into life in Scotland. i'm LOVING it here, even when the cost of everything gets to me, or when - like for the last week - i've been pretty deathly ill. the people have grown ever nicer, and i've made some amazing friends in the Canadian contingent. :)
i've seen some parts of Scotland that make me long to settle here long term, though i have no clue if i'd be able to feasibly support myself in those parts - remote villages don't necessarily need more primary teachers.
i'm amazed, actually, to note that it's October 5th already! i've been here for two months! and though i am looking forward to going home at Christmas, i'm no longer counting down the weeks.
... this may change after going back to lectures this coming week. placement and working with children is SO much more appealing than sitting still for hours listening to others blather on and on and ON...
:)
i hope everyone's year is turning out as great as mine, and i miss you all!
cheers,
