I'd do anything.

There is a brilliant television programme every Saturday night, known as I'd do anything.

It is a reality programme, where theatre producers are searching for a Nancy, and three Oliver Twists to play in the west end.

My favourite Nancy is Jodie, because she looks just like a Nancy. However, the others are good too, and the standard is very high!

I can't wait to see it.

Images taken from the London eye.

I visited London this week, and had a trip on the London eye, which was excellent! The views were spectacular, particularly as the whole of London was in view.

It was a beautiful, clear day, so both my family, and I managed to take some good pictures.

A fall.....

I had a fall in the middle of the road on Friday, whilst walking to my work placement.

Unfortunately, my shoe was caught in the cats eye, and I toppled over onto my knees. Thankfully, there were not any cars coming, so I had enough time to both stand up, and quickly walk to the edge of the road!

My knees were cut, and bruised, but my trousers were absolutely fine. More importantly, they did not rip.

I often have dreams about falling in the middle of the road, which is terrifying!

An excellent 18th birthday!

I had an excellent 18th birthday on Thursday, which I celebrated at the Beefeater restaurant with both my family, and three friends, known as Louise, Vivi (my cousin), and Becky.

The food was delicious, particularly the desserts! Unfortunately, I was almost under the table at the end of the meal, because I had eaten too much.

I was astounded by the kindness everyone had shown. I do not think I have ever had so many cards, or presents!!

Theory exam.

I took my theory test this week, which was exceedingly frightening! However, I think I was more worried about driving all the way to Canterbury.

Thankfully, the drive was excellent, particularly as I was able to drive along the country roads!! I wasn't even honked at.

Once I arrived at the test centre, I had to go into a large room, where I sat my test on the computer.

There were fifty questions within the exam, including a hazard perception part, which was the hardest of the two!

The best part of the day was when I was told I had passed the test. I was not sure if I had passed, because I was nervous.

Now I just have to wait for the worst part of the test, known as the practical driving test!

A holiday in Wales.

This week has been brilliant, because I have spent a few days in beautiful Wales, in the South West town, known as Gower Peninsula!

My mum, dad, my mum's friend, and I all stayed in a cosy lodge, overlooking the sea. It was extremely quiet surrounding us, and the furthest shop was miles away!

The best day of the week was visiting Cardiff, because we had a tour of the Millennium Stadium. It was thoroughly enjoyable, as we even walked to the very top of the stadium, and had a fantastic view of the pitch. However, we were also all given the opportunity to sit down in the royal box seats. The tour guide was a Welsh man, and exceedingly funny!

It was an excellent week, and I think Wales is definitely worth a visit.

Wyvern Junior School.

My current work placement is situated at Wyvern junior school, located within Ashford, Kent.

The school is specialised, because it is for children with learning difficulties, and developmental problems. For example:-
Autism. Therefore, many of the children are unable to verbally communicate with others. However, the children are extremely kind, and immediately made me feel welcome! One of the children even held my hand, and hugged me.

I am being provided with excellent experiences within the school, and enjoy assisting the children with their activities, particularly playing in the sandpit. I feel I have gained a real knowledge from this placement.

One of the children regularly lashes out, which was quite frightening at first, because I had several bruises, and scratches! Nevertheless, they were only war wounds.
