I've been on work experience for the past week, and I only have one day left. Darn why is work experience only 1 week? It makes me so much more sadder because I'm going to miss it so much. Back to reality I guess, harsh, cold and unforgiving. My friend says I'm suffering from withdrawal-like symptoms regarding my nostalgia towards the prospect of leaving work experience, and frankly I agree wholeheartedly. After going to my local vet for my work experience, I can confidently say, this is probably one of the happiest times of my life. I don't even mind picking up the cat and dog poo/pee, or washing up because it's fine when my supervisors treat me so nicely. They're like a new family that I've grown to love and it's only been about 4 days. Maybe it's wistful infatuation that I have for the Veterinary Clinic, but I'm happy that I met these people because right now they're one of the most important people in my life. Though I'm sure you're reading this thinking 'oh another emotional hormone driven child' and I can't deny that, yes you're probably right, but the emotions that I'm feeling now, I don't want to forget.
20/8
I've watched a couple of surgeries during my time in work experience (mainly castrations and spayings of cats, dogs and rabbits) and I'm actually not scared of blood which is a good thing. If I wish to pursue a career in Veterinary Science. I'm just sad that after the week's up, I'm probably never going to see these people ever again, and I know I haven't affected them much, but they've definitely shaped the person I'll be when I grow up. And it doesn't bother me the fact that I haven't imprinted much on them, because I'm probably not going to see them ever again but I don't want to forget. Is that a bad thing?
Being the person I am, I spent a lot of time with a fellow student who happen to go to the same work experience as myself and we were talking about relationships, she herself was struggling with a break up and found my analysis of their relationship (her and her ex) extremely helpful. Anyways, I won't go into detail with that because it's personal. But leading me to my next point, because I can't help but analyse things (no I'm not boasting, I need to state this so you'll understand), I've been thinking and though previously I was sure to ask for any form of employment within the Veterinary Clinic, now I'm not so sure. They have enough people within the Clinic to supervise and attend to all their animals, but I really want to go back (even if it's not for pay). I find time goes so fast when I'm in the clinic, and I've gotten a lot fitter (after mopping/sweeping so much etc.)
Well, I'm going to make the most of tomorrow, and hopefully I never forget this experience I'm given.
