önsdag den sjunde november
i am having trouble concentrating on my social stratification paper. i guess that's why i am sitting here on my blog instead of writing the damn paper. it might not be good. i am going to be up all night long writing it. i'm just so exhausted from all these papers and the field placement and everything. it's so hard to write yet ANOTHER fucking paper in such a short amount of time. but, i gotta do it.
good news: i got the paper back from another class. i thought the paper was shit. i wrote it in like, a few hours. i got an "A" on it, though! the paper was 60% of the grade. 40% of the grade was attendance and participation. i attended every class and spoke in every class. i hope to get an "A" in the class. i want that good academic record to keep my future options open. so far, i'm doing better academically than i did in college. i got an A-/B+ average in college. i think it's easier now because i am older and have more knowledge and i have my head on straighter.
my field placement is okay. i'm finally getting a new client: a boy who, along with his siblings, was taken out of his home because of neglect. apparently, his parents are having trouble taking care of themselves and their children. so, i want to be there to support them in doing what they need to do to improve their capacity for self-care and the care of their children. i am doing a "home visit" on friday. according to the acs file, the home is in a "deplorable condition". my field instructor advised me not to wear nice clothes and not to put my bag down on anything.
my sister's coming back on saturday. i asked her to bring back a small australian flag, an australian flag patch, and a cool souvenir t-shirt. yeah, i am cheesy in that way. i like to collect flags and patches and t-shirts from different countries. :P
well, i am gonna go back to the paper now. i guess i will try drinking maté if i need caffeine to keep myself up all night. i hate coffee. i love maté. i also have fruity black swedish tea that alex's mom sent me for my birthday. oh, and i have some chocolate to nibble on. :) ok, i need to shut up and go back to the paper!
vi hörs senare!
