Reflective Journal example (2)

It’s been extremely busy this week because I’ve got a lot on my plate

First, I need to hand in an assignment. 

Since one of the tutors is leaving the university at the end of this month, I have to complete a subject that she is teaching by next Friday. 

Even though it’s not my fault and it can’t be helped, I want to complain about it and I’m thinking ‘how am I supposed to sort this out?’ 

Second, I’ve got extra shifts on Sunday and Thursday because one of my colleagues has been ill. 

To make matters worse, I put myself forward to be a student representative of my course, which brings me extra work. 

Actually, it’s not a very hard job, however, I should have refused or avoided the student officer who had asked me to take the job in person, so that I could focus on my assignment.
