      you are bloody kidding me, right? is this the useless person? Block 'em! and tell their boss “only been gone halfa and they are already messaging me. not a good look for the company but if you need me (and I agree with Seagoon here) I’m happy to adhoc assist at (outrageous consulting fee)”

      source

        That consulting fee idea is a really good way to stop the messages real quick.

    I have 4-and-a-bit days to make my first official cosplay item. A helmet of sorts.

    I was hoping Amazon would provide the goods but they let me down.

    So now it’s me, a hot glue gun and some supplies from Savers, Bunnings & Spotlight.

    The hopes of a 9yo boy are in my barely-capable hands.

    I am wrecked for today. I have no more going up and down stairs in me.

    but this house is so nice

    I have views of trees beyond my terrace and out the windows, not walls. It’s quiet. It smells nice here. It’s big and roomy and easy to live in.

    alright. Van sorted (not cheaply, but sorted). Some of the gear has arrived including some all important poles but a lot of the other essentials (like waterproof mattress protectors to protect bed in the event of a wet packup) are enroute. And the nice to haves (new kettle, sheets, chopping board, dish drainer) are still awaiting shipping dates. Thinking this might be a very bare bones dry run this weekend.

    Started placement today (kids were on an excursion yesterday) and I still don’t really know how to feel. The first lesson was with a CRT who had some science background so she still winged it, but told everyone that I would be teaching with her, even though I’m meant to just be observing. I ended up helping some kids out in the end whilst attempted to do the teaching. Some of the kids in the class have aspirations like sport and the arts, and instantly act out because they’ve associated the class with boredom. The biggest thing I took away from today is that just these kids showing up is enough. The school is aware of what these kids want to do, and give them the absolute bare minimum, like a worksheet to fill in to pass the entire unit.

    I have to brush up on my content knowledge as well, but that will come when I start planning lessons. I hope.

    I’ve got until next Monday to decide if I want to drop out of the course without financial penalty. I still don’t really know, because it’s only been one day, but I’m just trusting that things will figure themselves out as they go along.

    • Seagoon_@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

      how can you not know how to feel

      just feel your feelings as they come with your experiences, don’t think about feelings in advance

      seems to me you are doing awesome, you like what you do, you are very sensitive to the kids and their needs and capabilities

      I think the kids are going to see how good you are and will be aces 🙂

      source
      • LowExperience2368@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

        I don’t know how to feel about my decision.

        Thanks Seagoon :)

      I’m not sure why you were paired with a CRT, you’re supposed to have a teacher who works there because they’ll end up evaluating you and also mentoring you as well.

      The thing about CRT is that kids/students will act differently to a CRT, especially one they’ve not had before as the students will try and push the boundaries to see how far they can go.

      Anyway I’m a little bit sad that you hadn’t gotten the proper set up to experience it properly and you only have a short time to make a decision.

      source
      • LowExperience2368@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

        Exactly! The mentors I’m meant to have are on LSL so I think I will ask another teacher in the staff room if I can observe their class.

    I think I nearly got scammed on ebay. Bought some furniture but they had strange messaging, only very late at night

    they did not give me the information I wanted to pick it up but demanded codes that would enable them to tell ebay the transaction was completed. I even asked 3 days. No information.

    I cancelled and got my money back. Then they send me a message like 2 minutes later and they were very angry.

    But they did not lose any money. They still have their items.

    the fact they were very angry makes me think that yes, this was a scam.

    • Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

      It was 1,000,000% a scam.

    so 99% of everything here is still in boxes. 6.30 this morning, tired, need brekkie before I go out, grab a meal shake sachet but couldn’t find any glasses. Find an empty clean spice jar with lid. Make shake, drink it. That tastes a bit funny. Pretty sure it was dried garlic powder in the jar too. took less than 5 mins to chuck. 🙄

    i’m a bit better organised now but very sore and tired

    I might take a bath 🙂 I bought a peach bath bomb.

    Bleahhhh took today off on leave to try and squeeze out the last of uni fieldwork but nope spent most of my time driving, still a long way to go :( as the days progress my results are starting to look more and more sus… the angle of the sun is really messing around with it I think.

    Friday looks like my last chance entirely. No way I’ll finish everything. I’ll have to do my best to cover as much data as possible. And then the mad, intense, insane 2 months of data processing and WRITING commences. I really ought to book in some kind of treat for the end of the whole damn thing

    Electrician has been and gone to get my chandelier down and the old fitting put up. I noticed the movers missed quite a few item. I’ll have to go back and pick them up.

    the big flock of cockatoos, maybe 200, in has over taken my old block in Carlton the past few weeks

    they are chewing up every thing in sight

    all the other birds are being driven away

    the streets are covered in litter from chewed up trees

    I found a feather in my little front yard and brought it home for Bill and Ted

    all the train ride the city took the same amount of time as the short tram ride from the city to Carlton

    I have six days off work ahead of me 😁

    My plan is to finish my couch cushions, do a bit of tidying in the garden and put out some hard rubbish (including the old cushions) and whatever pottering around and packing takes my fancy. The weather is looking pretty good so I might even go out somewhere. Maybe it’s time to do the trip to the Cranbourne Botanical Gardens I keep intending to do but never get around to.
