Alas, 'tis nearly the end of half term. Just today, and the weekend, and then it's back to school I go. I do, however, love half terms - they are fantastic things!

I have spent my half term in Exeter with my loved one, which has been very nice. I've written a few application letters, but other than that, I've mainly just been relaxing, and catching up with a few people.

It's amazing how you come to appreciate a week off so much, and how much your insight and outlook change when you're doing a PGCE; it's also funny how much it makes you grow up, and consider what kind of a role model you are. It's so different from life as a degree student! Obviously, fun is still a necessarily important element in life, but you think about what you're doing so much more.

Any way, I'm on a library computer - have had 29 of my 30 minutes, so have to go now!
