Words

My posting has become very few and far between.  It's mostly because I have a mountain of paper work to get done, an essay to write and lots of other teacher stuff to sort out!  I feel so grown up!  At the same time there has been part of me that has shied away from the blog world.  For reasons of insecurity.  Seeing all you beautiful people posting perfect pictures of yourself in lovely clothes showing your individuality.  I have never been afraid of individuality, in fact I think it's the only thing I've always embraced and accepted about myself.  Even my name which I think is completely unique, though a point I will have difficulty proving to you since I'm not really willing to put my full name on my blog but you'll just have to trust me on that one :)

There is a little voice in my head screaming out to be photographed and put on the blog.  It's something I've done perhaps a handful of times and each time I just feel so embarrassed when I have done it I just cant bring myself to do it again for a long time.  Which is ridiculous!  Right now I wouldn't want to show off what I've been wearing as I've reverted back to my student ways of hoodies, baggy trousers, knitted beret and vans.  Picture your stereotypical hippie-esque student if you would :)  Which really isn't making my case in showing that I'm 'different' ha!

 This is the part where I would state that I'll try to make more of an effort to comment on blogs and post more but there is no try only do and do not :)  Sorry my geekiness escapes from time to time.  I do live by this though, the mind is a powerful thing if you believe you can do something you can do it of course it has to be in the bounds dictated by reality, but still a belief in yourself and what you can do can take you a long long way :)

Right back to the 3500 word essay that's on 900 words so far and is in by Thursday!  Any good thoughts on the role and importance of practical work in learning science are very welcome ;)

And just to live up to being British, it's been such a beautiful spring day today such a shame I've had to spend most of it inside in front of my laptop!
