Today I started my first Speech and Language Therapy clinical placement which meant waking up at 6am to get 2 trains to where my clinician was based. I was at the clinic from 9am to 5pm (let's hear it from Dolly Parton :laugh: ) and then had another hour's worth of travelling before I got back to uni halls.
One thing I was worried about being on placement one day a week was that I would be too tired and exhausted to get a workout in on Tuesdays (my 2 rest days are Thursdays and Sundays - uni and work on Thursday and work all day on Sunday...by the time I finish, the gym's closed and I am usually quite tired after being on my feet all day). However, I was strangely energised throughout my placement and still had energy left at the end of my placement (following dinner) for a workout at the gym. Know what? I feel fantastic after that workout and even more that I was able to fit it in after my first 9 to 5 placement and being awake since 6am :happy:
Choir is also due to start straight after my placement on Tuesday nights now, but I'm still going to the gym on Tuesday nights after choir. Just gotta make sure I have something to fuel them before I get back to my flat for a proper meal
Oh, just a side note, twas a very good day at my placement - looking forward to next week now

Love the quote in your profile pic - that's my mantra for 2013 now0 -
Awesome job! My husband and I are struggling to make time on busy days too (or rather, to find energy). You're an inspiration!0
