Another week has passed by and all I want to do is press the pause button. Take a deep breathe, catch up and then press start again. Don't get me wrong I am loving Tafe, I think the biggest problem is I am putting to much pressure on myself to pass and achieve well. Lets be honest I have never been good at school, well it was over 30 years ago. So I guess old fears are rising up and you'd think that they would'nt be there still.
So onwards and upwards and I AM going to beat these fears and hopefully excel.

My Communicate Electronically Class last week I learnt how to set up my own Blog and this was exciting for me. I had started my own blog at home and it wasnt to successful, but now WAHOO I am on a roll. It is so wonderful to learn new things and how to learn more about things you are already using.

Donna is ever so patient like all the teachers here at Tafe. So I wonder what we shall be learning today, you shall just have to wait for me to let you know.

My Reflection in starting Cert III Business

 

It’s amazing how life throws curve balls at you, if you had told me 2 months ago I would be studying at TAFE, I’d have laughed and called you crazy. But here I am, 2 days down and just loving the whole experience.

 

I realised a few weeks back that I will be needing to finally get a piece of paper to say I am actually qualified in something, yes I am currently Jack of all trades and Master of none, but this is going to change. I recently had applied for a few jobs and was very unsuccessful much to my horror, as I had never come across this rejection before when applying.  In saying this I now realise only after 1 day in class that there is so much more to learn and my attempts at applying for jobs was quite unprofessional, so I am a tad embarrassed now looking back.

 

With not much sleep I attended my first class yesterday and didn’t know whether I’d sink or swim. To my amazement I actually got through with not too much trouble, Praise God and thank you, prayer answered.

 

Teachers here, sorry lecturers are here to help and have so much compassion and patience, another praise point. The Young ladies in my class are so young compared to me, but they don’t see that and a young mind is so refreshing sometimes.

 

The one thing I have defiantly realised is when your older is we know more than we realise and the life skills will be an asset, but there is STILL so much more to learn.

 

I am so confident that my next attempt at applying for a job I will be so much more professional and organised. Thanks to this awesome course, I am really looking forward to stepping out and learning new skills.

Bless you
