THE Week

This is it. The BIG week. Back in noisy smelly Birmingham for the final push to qualification.

Three days cramming and one day's exams. Day two of the cramming and we've been hit with a mock exam. Nothing too difficult - or do I know more than I thought? :-S

Oh, and apparently I seem to have passed the exam I sat three weeks ago. Lord only knows how, but to quote my tutor 'people can miss out questions and pass, but we don't recommend it!' with a look at me! But we're still waiting to have our results from the Moderator, so I could be wrong!

So, back to the books.

Don't be strangers, people - I need all the help I can get! :-)

Update Thursday - struggling here. It's so hot and I am becoming very disillusioned. Resentment is starting to kick in. Yesterday I was quite argumentative, and today I just want to throw the whole thing in.
I haven't slept properly this week at all and as I lie in bed all the information runs through my head like a tickertape.
I am living on caffeine and paracetamol because I have pains in my wrist from writing, and pain in my back from lugging all these books around and my VERY uncomfortable hotel bed.

Update Two - yep confirmed, passed my Safety Inspectors's exam - 69% and that was not answering two of the questions! I have been spoken to sternly by my tutor about answering ALL the questions.
Oh and just walked past large policeman holding youth at bay and colleague carefully holding the HUGE knife he was obviously carrying......I want to come home NOW! Tom has been informed he will be walking me back to my hotel tonight....

Could be worse, could be at work with no training, development or handy certificates helping job/career prospects.

Focus on the fact you are getting through it, even if its hard your still there and hay 1 exam down and positively has got to help right?

Hugs as always CQ - now back to those books and get one of the nice young men on the course to carry them for you instead!
