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.

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.

Topic: L: Change the World.
Well today was another day that I spent at home, though I was a bit disappointed because I was unable to get my work experience sheet signed (I'm going to a vet!) as I forgot to get my parents to sign the form beforehand. Though not to worry, I shall do it within this week because I want to get this done before the holidays end. I'm really excited about the prospect of going to a vet, because I've been told I was never good with people or being sympathetic. So instead I opted for animals, because they're the next best thing for someone like me who would like to pursue a medical career.
Anyways, besides the point, today I also watched the Death Note spinoff, L: Change the World otherwise known as Death Note III. Though the original cast makes extremely small cameos. The movie made me feel sad, because it documented the very last case L took in before he died via the Death Note. Though throughout the movie, which tells of a deadly virus that has been unleashed to Japan I felt that the way people who were affected by the virus were portrayed as was extremely grotesque, but I guess that's probably what makes a good movie. Watari's death was also sad, because he was such an cute old man and he was such a nice proxy father to L and all the other people who's names represented the alphabet (I think).

Topic: First day of staying at home.
I stayed at home for the whole day today... and I must say, the day wore on quite quickly. Though last night, I must say I had one of the most terrifying dreams of my life. It was like a slasher film, that was playing in my head, with my family being the victims. Now that I think about it, it was probably as a result of watching The Dark Knight, where 'The Joker' talks about the pros of using a knife to kill his victims. Though, I got so scared I actually had one of those moments when you are genuinely confused on whether or not it was a dream.
Really, I can't think of anything interesting to write about, so I'm basically going to finish this up. But before I go, I FINALLY FOUND A PLACE FOR WORK EXPERIENCE! At my local vet, where my dog was found, after he escaped from our garden. Though I was so nervous/happy that I accidently told them the wrong date... so I have to go back and correct myself. I hope they don't think I'm not taking work experience seriously.
