My work experience

I had the opportunity to try working at Scandinavian Air Ambulance. I got to see what its like to work as a pilot and a flight nurse. My mom works as a flight nurse and asked me if I wanted to follow her to work this week, and I thought it sounded interesting and fun to see what she does while I’m in school.

I thought my we- place was interesting. My mother showed me all the equipment she uses as a flight nurse, and I got to follow her on flights, like to Gällivare, Umeå, and Kiruna. 

I can see myself working as a pilot, but not as a nurse. I want a job that I can feel free, and I think you do that as a pilot, because when we where in the air, the pilots just sat there and drank coffee and watched the view. As a nurse, you have a lot of pressure on your shoulders, and I don’t want a job like that. But overall I really liked the concept working at Scandinavian Air Ambulance.  I liked that sometimes when they didn’t have any flights planned they could just stay at home. I had a very good time at my we-place.

Differences

The biggest difference between the two recipes is that the Swedish one contains Swedish Measuring cups, and the English recipe contains English ones. I also think that the English recipe is more detailed than the Swedish recipe.

This is England

This is England

This is England, is a British drama movie. It was produced 2006, written and directed by Shane Meadows. The movie is about a small boy named Shaun, in 1983, when Margaret Thatcher was prime minister, and the Falklands war took place.

Shaun lives in a small town in England with is mother. His father died in the war and Shaun was a bullying victim, because of his old clothes. One day on his way home from school, Shaun bumped in to a skinhead gang, who treated him well. In the lead of the gang was Woody. For the gang, everything is about the ska- culture, music, Dr martens shoes and jeans. Their lives are all about having fun.

When Woody’s old friend Combo gets out of prison, forced the group to split in two pieces. Combo is a National front activist, and Shaun decides to join his group.

I think the reason he joined Combos group was because of that Combo told him that he didn’t want more people to die for nothing, as his father did.

 Combo doesn’t want more “pakis” to enter England, for example because he thinks that the unemployment problems in England is already to big, and he don’t want the “pakis” to steal works from the English unemployed.

This is England is dedicated to Shaun, or Thomas Turgooses real mother, Sharon Turgoose, who died in lung cancer 29^th of December 2005, just months after the recording of the movie was done.  

This is England review

The movie This is England gives everyone who watched the movie a real insight in the English culture during those years. Its very reality likely and well made. But I don’t know if I liked the movie as a movie I would watch a Friday night in my sofa. I would prefer to watch this movie when I want to learn more about England, for example in school.

 In the movie is it a lot of profanity and it’s a very bad language, but I think it explains much of the culture they live in, but I think the bad language occurs to often. It’s very exhausting after awhile, when you just hear the bad words. I think the movie was hard to understand sometimes.

This is England is a unique movie and describes England’s bad and good sides.
