ROOM TOURS AND DECORATIONS!
I’M FINALLY DONE WITH MY SUMMER PLACEMENT!
I have been anticipating this day since the first day I started my summer placement! It’s not so much that I dislike working with the kids there or anything, but I just hate all the work I have to do. All the cleaning (actually, I don’t mind the cleaning that much), all the paper work, assignments, evaluations, interacting with parents, everything. But there are some kids that I will definitely miss because they are just so cute and adorable!! (Well, except when they’re upset and crying all day) LOL.
I had my final evaluation this week and it went pretty bad. First of all, my original teacher who was grading me in the room left to be a teacher in another room when I only had 2 weeks left in placement. So, I was actually passed on to another teacher in the room to evaluate me for my last 2 weeks and let’s just say that teacher doesn’t like me too much. I can just tell from the way she talks to me and her “attitude” that she never liked me from the beginning to start with. Even on the very first day when I met her, I could tell that she doesn’t like me. But I know for the fact that I’m not going into placement to be liked by all the teachers and workers there. I’m there to do my training to become an ECE and complete all my assignments and build good relationship with the kids. So, in a way, I felt that it was a bit unfair that she was only grading me for the very last 2 weeks that I was with her. Although respectfully, I know there are parts on my side which I certaintly did lack improvement and skills. But even so, I felt that she had a very strong negative impression of me and her judgement might be slightly biased? But whatever, it’s all over now and I don’t think I failed my placement, it’s just that I might not be getting the most decent mark that I want to get it. But really at this point, I just don’t care about my mark anymore. I just want to get it over with and start fresh in September.
At least I have 3 weeks off before my next placement to reflect on and prepare for what I need to work hard on to succeed. A little obstacle is just a step forward to success. =) I just PRAY that I’m not working with school-aged children for my next placement because I know for the fact that my schedule will be PRETTY CRAPPY as I will always have to stay there late until 6pm everyday. I’d rather finish early so it gives me time to do homework and other things.
Anyway, sorry for my long rant about boring school/placement talk but I just thought I need to get that out of my system before I go crazy! XD
On a more interesting topic, I was watching “room tour” videos on youtube last weekend and came across this girl’s room and it is just SO AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!
Click to viewEveryting in the room is SO EYEMAZING! Everything from the colour, design, setup, furniture and decorations! Gosh, it's like a girl's DREAM ROOM! I like how about 90% of the stuff in the room is actually handmade or painted and designed by her mom. Wow, what an awesome mom she has. I wish I had a mom who would decorate and design my room for me. lol. And the most amazing thing in the room is the WHITE CHRISMAS TREE and all the decorations! Everything in the room is so antique and pretty that I feel like I'm in Paris or something when I'm looking at all the pictures up on the wall and all those little cute and girly decorations. Just so amazingly beautiful! However, I wouldn't want my actual room to be this pink and girly. I'd like my future closet room to look something similar to this! Girly and pink with sweet and cute decorations~ ♥
Watching all these room tour videos inspire me so much of how I want to decorate my own room. Actually, I've been thinking about decorating my room for a long time now ever since I renovated almost my entire house and moved into a bigger and new room. It's just that since these past 2 years that I have renovated my home, I never had time to really go look for furnitures and buy the things that I want to decorate my room. And also finding the perfect furniture and at a reasonable price is always a big issue. But I already have in mind of how I want my room to look and I'm just hoping that I could get everything together by the time I graduate from college. I can't wait until I can actually decorate my own room!
But for now, I have so much cleaning to do. Don't you hate how it takes you so long to clean up your room and yet it takes less than a minute for it to get messy again?! I always have to do a room clean up almost EVERY week! And my room is a total mess at the moment since I haven't cleaned it for about almost 4 weeks now.
Other than that, I'm looking forward to enjoying my 3 weeks off before school starts again. I have so much that I want to do but so little time to do them!
