Work Experience with Oliver...

I am really sorry for the lack of updates over the past few days, but I really haven't been motivated. There has just been no energy for me to do it, and it has been hard to get some time, enough to write a blog, to myself!

Last week I started going to school again. Yes, that's right, I had to get up at 6am every day again. It was sucky.

In geography we are doing Australia, and in two weeks I have to make a presentation about Canberra. I really have no idea what I can say, or what I can do, because the teacher didn't really say much.
I think I will just say a bit about the general facts, history, and show some photos, maybe speak about the things shown in the photos as well.
If anyone has any suggestions, tell me!!

Other than that, not much really happened in school last week. Just writing, boring things, like always, yeah?

Yesterday I started my work experience with Oliver, and his company, SVS. I think that's what it is called, at least.
Anyway. his company has about 20 employees, and they service satellites, recorders, digital TV boxes and stuff. Not very interesting, until you get to the actual cracking open the box part.

And, do you know what I have been doing for the last two days?

Well, every day they recieve over 100 packages of things to repair, that have to be unpacked...do you know now?

I have unpacked things, brought the boxes to the back room and brought stuff from the back room to the offices again. Interesting, yeah?
For example, yesterday they had five GIANT boxes full of stff to be carried from the back room to the offices, to be put into the computer. Guess who did that, all by theirself? Me. I carried it all to and fro, and it was so damn heavy!!

To be honest, I also got to do some other stuff, which was OK.
I got to take apart some digital receivers, which was OK. I got to take out all the screws in them, take everything apart (They all called it "breaking them apart"...:P), then put them all back in their boxes again.
That was actually a little bit of fun, but doing it a hundred times, with the same bloody thing gets a little mundane and repetitive, and repetitive, and repetitive. :P

I also filed some papers, but that was boring. No need to describe what id id there. filed them by number.

Today after lunch I didn't go back. I helped Oliver do him homework for English, which is where the parents both are right now.

Hopefully I learn something out of these two weeks, maybe how to fix something, or to test what the problem is, or how to properly weld would also be cool. I could take the skills back home with me.

I so can't wait to do work experience again in Canberra. That is, if I get to do it again. Make sure you tell me when you find out when we have it this year, in case I will be there. then my Mum will have to organise something for me, help me a little.
I hope I get to do it again.

That is all for now. Hopefully I get to post some more soon.
It seems to be so bad, I can never get a balance. I either write heaps in my diary and neglect my blog or write heaps in my blog and neglect my diary. Hopefully one day I will learn to balance things.

Wish me luck for all the stupid projects I have to do right now!!
(YFU Middle seminar, Work experience summary, Canberra Presentation, that's enough for me!!)
