Economic East

During season 2 of Economics East we had to write another article for the magazine. I decided to write about junior doctors in the UK, this is something very important to me as I am planning on becoming a doctor in the UK and this could quite easily effect my life as a junior doctor. I found it very interesting piecing together all the different arguments and viewpoints that everyone had. It was quite difficult to do this though due to the large amount of data and viewpoints that are held by people. However I believe that in the end the final outcome was very good and I was happy with my article.

Rock climbing

Season 2 of rock climbing definitely increased in difficulty quite a bit with us all setting goals and trying new more difficult things. My partner and I began to try to climb different sections of the wall with different coloured handles. These coloured routes made it quite a bit more difficult to climb as only a certain amount of handles could be used. The first time I tried this I found it very difficult but it taught me to use not only my hands but also my feet, utilising different positions whilst rock climbing.  

Service

Going to the service was an very interesting experience, the people there were all very loud and unlike what I had previously experienced. Often they would shout out things, something I was not used to. Due to this we had to quickly adapt and be able to calm them down by doing a variety of different activities. The kinetic sand which I bought was actually used in one of the sessions and it worked really well. The people at the service said that it was one of the best activities done, with them being fully involved and enjoying it. This was very rewarding and something that was my idea really helped with the people and made the service even better.
