Holidays are still going on but I decided to return to Porvoo a bit earlier. I have a couple of things to do for the project and I still need to find proper clothes! I also know that I need some time on my own just to gather my thoughts together and get ready for the next week's hectic schedule.
Quite many people asked me during the Autumn wether I'm stressed, nervous or even scared about the fair and most of all about the big responsibility I have. I was evey time a bit surprised about the question and answered "No, why would I? I'm trying to do my best and I trust on my team mates. I can also see that everything is going pretty smoothly so why get scared?".
Guess my experience in working under pressure makes me more comfortable about stress than many others. I was stressed just like everyone else but it never took over me. I've experienced some sort of nervoussness during the last couple of days because I had the feeling I had forgotten somehing. Hope that feeling goes away as soon as I'm "on the track" again!
During the second period I was more stressed about mathematics and Swedish than the project. To my surprise I passed the Swedish course with the grade 3 but (as I already feared) didn't pass the second part of the math course. To be honest I don't like the teaching style of that subject and the fact that I've always had some problems with math doesn't help me when facing unmotivating teaching. Luckily students' feedback is taken seriously in our campus and I hope I find the motivation to practice for the re-exam..
