Thank you God that Your timing is perfect. Thank you God that You will release the right jobs that are suitable to be applied for at the right time. I am thankful that at this very moment in time there are not any band 5 speech and language therapy jobs in Kent as I would be too busy with placement to apply for them. I pray that as things start to quieten down, jobs will be released! Reason no. 1058 :)

God certainly knows best! I love how I tried to change my placement so I would be working with children, but I was told that I couldn't. At the time I was really annoyed! But 6 weeks in, I am pleased that I was never allowed to swap. If I had, I would have never known that a) I actually can and have the skill-set to work with adults and b) I actually enjoy working with adults! Reason no. 1057 :)

On Friday night, David and I went for some lovely Mediterranean  cuisine with David's best-man, followed by a trip to the pub! It was a great evening and a nice way to start the weekend  :) Reason no. 1056 :)

On placement I have met some truly incredible patients, many who have had a stroke and have been left unable to speak. It has allowed me to witness some incredible marriages that are surviving the impact of the stroke together and how despite such a life-changing event it has not stopped them smiling and laughing together.

I am thankful for such beautiful weather these past few weeks, which has meant lots of nice walks and ice cream. A couple of weeks ago I went to a lovely vegan ice cream bar with my coursemates, which is literally less than 5 minutes from where I live! Reason no. 1054 :)

Only 2 weeks left of my placement! It has certainly been a time of growth and left me wondering whether I want to eventually be working with adults instead of children. Before I started placement it was the last thing I ever thought I'd even be considering! It has been a good placement so far! Not long until the very end! Reason  no. 1053 :)

Thankful for getting a 2:1 on my dissertation!!! After months of work it was such a relief to not have to redo it! Whist having to submit that piece of work another piece had  been set where I had to set a proposal for a clinical audit...I got 90%!! A mark so much higher than I have ever got before at uni :) It was definitely a confidence boost! Reason no. 1052 :)
