So since I am so slack at posting, I have now not posted since like April (or May) - I have got a few posts that need editing before I finally publish them but they can wait for now.
I thought I would fill you all in on the adventures since my last post....
May
nothing too exciting that I can think of apart from....
- starting my final practicum of my Teaching Degree and working for church - we ended up having an amazing family fun night at the church for the kids/youth and their families and had a great turnout so was over the moon.
June
this was a long long time ago and so much has happened so I feel that I will probably leave something out but here goes anyway
- celebrating a few friends 21st birthdays.
- Struggling through practicum but went every day for 8 weeks only to find in the last two weeks that it would most certainly not be my final practicum and I would have to do another - lets not even go into details.
- Having Bret and Heidi Maunder move back to Australia - flip this is one amazingly incredible couple and I love them to pieces (and really really miss them too)
- Finished practicum and planed to do assignments - yeah right
- Oh and I almost forgot, Mum and Dad sold their house in Hastings :)
Hehe, this was certainly a month of ups and downs, of adventure, trails and tribulations... what a journey it was in a few short weeks.
- My 22nd birthday which was an amazing celebration spent with our 'Waikato Family' from Totara Springs and Matamata Bible Church
- Winter Teen's Camp at Totara Springs
- One of my Aunt's 50th Birthday's where we got to catch up with the whole family again for the first time since our wedding - it was a really special time :)
- Family wedding on Nat's side of the family
- Car broke down and then decided to die on us - oh boy what an adventure that certainly was
- Started my final semester of my teaching degree
- Had some more professional driving lessons
August
to be honest right now as I am writing this post, I can not remember much that happened in August apart from....
to be honest right now as I am writing this post, I can not remember much that happened in August apart from....
- finding out my newest sister in law

hmmmm, what happened in my life in September?
- Headed back to university for my last 6 WEEKS!! Ekk, it was such a nice feeling.
- Started to apply for teaching jobs for next year - suddenly this whole idea of me being a teacher seemed so much more real.
- Continued on struggling with assignments and lack of motivation even thought there were only a few weeks left of uni
- Received my first rejection letter for a teaching job - if this has not seemed real before now then it certainly did now
- I found out where I was going to be placed for practicum and went in to meet my teacher a couple of times
- Finding out I am going on camp while on practicum
October
Much more fresh and more recently in my mind than the other few months so forgive me but there could certainly be a lot to list from October - and its not even over yet.... whoops!- The last few weeks of university
- Planning for life after university
- Continuing to apply for teaching jobs - without any luck so far but I know the right job will come up soon
- Sending my husband off to teens camp and getting the house to myself for a few nights
- Road trips to Auckland to see Mary Poppins the Musical - ahhhhhhhhhhhh, it was like fantastically amazing
- My first time being in my new class for practicum and having an absolute blast
- Getting stressed over silly little assignments and craming at the last minute for a massive 30% test
- Celebrating the end of uni with friends
- Handing in my last assignment of my teaching degree
- Spending more time in my practicum class and being allowed to do the roll and bus duty on my first two days!!! WOW
- The end of my weekly commuting between Matamata and Hamilton.
- Winning a photography voucher with those random competitions in the supermarket
- Realising it is now two years since I shaved my hair for CanTeen
- Pondering what the future has to hold and getting excited while sitting here realising I have not updated my blog in a long time and thinking I should do this, hence the reason for this post!
