// Entry One: Day 1 Delivered Meals Program 1/8/11 //
==== So first day at community links, I didn’t know what to expect we would be doing or what the staff would be like I was really excited to start and to meet all the elderly people. I arrived at the Werribee council and found the little shack at the back with a little sign saying delivered meals program and saw Kristen and Emma there in their cars so we all got out and headed into the building, there was only three staff members when we got there they introduced themselves: ‘Shannon, Julia and Sue’ Julia and Sue were our supervisors. Then, Sue took us into a room to tell use about the job and the rules and the rounds that we go and then we signed a form to say we will respect and understand the rules. Then 15 minutes later the drivers that we were going out with for the two weeks arrived and introduced themselves their names were Carmel, Jean, Joy and Tammy they seemed nice and laid back. That day I was out on round 7 with Carmel, Carmel was really nice she told me about her two daughters, while we were on the rounds we would be getting meals out and meeting a lot of nice people some not so nice but most of that were very chatting. Then about 2-3 hours on the road get back and we prepare the juices for tomorrows run and then go home after the first day I thought I could get use to this starting at 9 and finishing at 12:30. ====

// Entry Two: Day 2-5 Delivered Meals Program 9/8/11 //
==== Day 2-5 were mostly the same. We would show up and get the cars ready for the runs and go with our drivers. On day two I was with Jean, day three Tammy, day four Carmel and on Monday I was sick so I didn’t go because I didn’t want to give my cold to the elderly people so on Tuesday, day five I was with Tammy. On Tuesday’s we would wash all the juice containers because they would get all sticky and on Thursday’s we would fill the cars up and go through the car wash. It would be good everyday meeting all the people and just travelling, when we got back to the Werribee Council we would take out the eskies from the cars do the juices and sometime they would give us laminating to do, which was a bit tricky and took forever. The first week was really good and interesting. ====

==== Last Day, day 8 was a good day we arrived and was ready for the work, so the day went on like all the others did but today was different because we knew it was the last day and I was with Carmel and she kept asking me if I had enjoyed my time and my answer was always yes because I did I had the best time even though it was the same thing everyday but it was just good seeing all the elderly people and how much they enjoyed seeing us. After we finished all the rounds we went back to the centre and we were finished packing the juices for Monday and then the staff all came out to say bye and they said to us that we were the best group they have never had and that we helped out so much. ====

**Melbourne Experience**
==== On the 1st of September it was our first day off on Melbourne experience. We ha to be at the Werribee train station by 8:30 and I was looking forward to it. Mum drove me down to the train station and then I arrived there about 8:10 there was like no one there for like 15 minutes then people started coming it was getting pretty hectic. At about 8:30 everyone was there and the teachers had arrived and it was really hard to hear all the teachers try and explain everything to us, but about 8:55 we started walking up to the platform and as we were walking to the platform there was an announcement over the speaker saying that there was going to be 120 students on the train it was pretty cool. So after stopping like 10 times we finally arrived at Flinders Street Station got off the train and made our way to Federations Square then we got our tour notes and we were off to explore the city first up my group had Arcades ane Lanes that one was confusing, we got lost like 5 times and my group was late to check in pretty funny I thought then we went to McDonald’s for some lunch, at about 12 or 12:30 we checked back into Fed Square and I felt really sorry for Mrs Leigh because she had all these people to check in. So the next tour we had was On the Waterfront, the waterfront was nice to look at the water and I had a heap of fun on it because we joined up with Tenille, Jasmine and Shae but along the way we saw Brandon and his group and we all had no idea where we were then we walking into crown and took pictures on the steps, then we walked along Southbank and got to the boost juice place where we got to get a free boost juice with our token, then checked back in at Fed Square and then after everyone checked in we made our way to the buses to make our way home, and that made a good first day. Day two, it started the same as the first day arrive before 8:30 and made the 15 stops again and made our way to Federation Square, got our tour notes and was off for yet another wild day in the city. My group started with A Walk in the Park it was beautiful we walked around with Tenille’s group again and it was so much fun, we checked in to the halfway point and then got our cookies and was off again but this time we had no idea where we were going and we saw the whole tour group A, we were going no where and everyone was lost so then we had to get directions. After a long walk asking strangers how could we get to Fed Square we made it back had lunch and then went to Victoria Market, Vic Market was really good because we got to do what we wanted just walked around and brought whatever, so my group was shopping but I didn’t buy anything I caught up with my friend and she stayed with me and my group, it was nice and then when it was a quarter to 2 we had to be back at the tram but we were running late so when we were at the traffic lights to cross the tram came and we were worried we were going to miss it but then the teachers decided to get on the next one so we didn’t need to run but we did anyway. I really enjoyed Melbourne Experience it was so fun not just because we were out the classroom and without a teachers it was because I got to be in the best group and I think I became closer friends with my group members and because of that that is why it made Melbourne Experience that much better. ====

What would happen if you threw a piece of trash on the ground? What if everyone did?
If I threw a piece of trash on the ground, there would be trash on the ground but it would do more damage then we actually think, if we were at Werribee South at St.Mary’s Campus and we littered there rubbish would end up at the beach and it would hurt the wildlife and the sea creates in the sea but most of all it will damage our world for your future generations.

What would you do if you saw a friend cheating - report it, confront the friend or nothing - and why?
==== If I was see of find a friend cheating I wouldn’t really report them I would confront them and see why and ask the full story. I would try and let them report themselves instead of me having to do it just try and get them to do the right thing. ====

What do you think makes a good friend?
==== What I think makes a good friend is someone that is there for when ever you need them and that one person you can always rely and that encourages you to do think you never thought you would be able to and who will be there for you in thick and thin. ====

What is your most indispensable possession and why?
==== My most indispensable possession would have to be my phone. Wherever I go I always have my phone, it is a way for me to feel safe because if I get lost I can always call someone and if things are bad I have all the people I need to talk to in my phone and it is a way for me to keep connected to everyone. ====

What do you think about people polluting the environment?
==== My opinion on people polluting the environment is that I think it is so horrible because of the things it does to our world such as damaging our nature, it’s huge effect on our animals and it harms the world for our future generations. ====

How do you feel when you do something wrong?
==== When I do something wrong I feel regretful, disappointed and mad. I feel regretful because I think how could I have done something differently, I feel disappointed in myself because I always think that I could of done something more and I feel mad because it is my faults. ====

How do you feel when you do something that is very good?
When I do something very good I feel proud and successful. I feel proud because I have done something that good and successful because that may be the onlt time I succeed in that thing wether it be in sport, and certain subject or just something I am no good at but I tried my hardest to do good.

When you are angry, how do you look? When are you happiest? When have you felt lonely? When do you feel proud?
==== I get angry and frustrated when I don’t get stuff and don’t do well in things I should, also when I play sport, when I am confused, tried or losing because I just wish I was better. When I am angry at the time I don’t really care how I look but after a while I think about it and think why did I look did I hurt someone and I think how bad I stuffed up and how much that would affect peoples views on me, so I guess I look discussing and I feel sorry for my parents because they say it looks really bad but I mostly I get angry with myself when I do stupid things in the process. I am the happiest when I am with my family and friend, when we just hang out and have fun doing whatever even if it nothing big I am just happy to be with them. Yes I have feel lonely I’m sure everyone at one stage in their life but I am the most loneliest when I have got in a fight with my family or with my friends. I feel proud of myself when I succeed, help someone with there problems, being there for people, but more I feel proud when I see other people succeed and do things they never thought they would be able to do and think I helped them, that is the best feeling. ====

Which quality do you dislike most about yourself - laziness, selfishness, childishness - and why?
==== My quality I hate the most is my laziness and my competitiveness. I dislike my laziness because I always leave things to the last minute, I can’t never be bothered doing it and I also dislike my competitiveness because I get in trouble a lot for it because I like to win and when we are losing I get frustrated and I get mad at my team mates and the opposition. ====
