Saoirse [Freedom] The Pursuit of Happiness
I really need to get into the routine of using this because you guys have been awesome on here with all your help. Thank you so much for the support. It really means a lot.
So, this is just a little update for anyone who is interested =]
I’ve been going regularly to my counselling for awhile now and it’s been pretty good. I sorted things out at my college which means that now I have less lessons, and more freetime. I’m lessed stessed about that so that’s GREAT. I’ve also figured out what I want to do when I’m older, so I’m totally excited about that!
I was thinking about taking both English’s and Photography at A-level, and then I’m going to go onto take a degree in Teaching English to Primary School kids. Then I’m going to take this course called, Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL). This will enable me to get a job in other countries =D. In my spare time I’m also trying to get accepted onto a volunteering placement with a company called Lattitude. I get to pick what country I would like to go to, Japan, China or another Eastern country. And also what kind of volunteering I want to do. I chose to either be a classroom assistant or to help to look after street and orphan children =] It’s something Im very excited about and it makes me feel much better to have a purpose and a goal to eventually reach.
During my counselling I’ve started this thing called Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. Basically me and my counsellor talk about some of the problems I have, and then it goes on for another 12 sessions where we can explore them in more depth and help alter my way of thinking so that I can start thinking more positivly. So hopefully, thing’s are on the way up!
Glad to be back, =]
Jay.
