Start of Third Year!

Hello 🙂

As I sit and type this blog in my new University room I start to think I can’t actually believe I’m a 3rd Year!!! To start with where did the time go? It only seems like yesterday that I was being interviewed by a variety of Universities and being made offers! And now I’m sat here about to go on my first placement block of third year… CRAZY!!

I would say I don’t know how I got through my first two years but that would be unrealistic. I know I’ve worked hard on both my academic and clinical placement blocks and have achieved some amazing results. My basic hope for 3rd Year is to pass and get a job 🙂 Obviously a nice classification grade would be the cherry on the cake however for Radiography do you really want a department full of purely academic staff? The answer to that is a simple no. Radiographers need to have a mix of patient care, communication and academic knowledge that can be applied. Having that mixed skill base is the difference between a average and excellent radiographer.

I’m just going to continue to be me- hard-working, positive, caring and all done with a smile on my face, because somehow that’s worked for me for the past two years and so it can continue to for my final year.

Final thought- Let’s make this year count!!

With Love.
