End of Exams!!



IT'S OVER!
seven years at the same school, 13 years of education behind me, Primary School - DONE, Secondary School - DONE, Sixth Form College - DONE!
I can't believe it, it hasn't quite sunk in yet! BUT IT'S OVER!
Until university in September.
I caught myself out there...it's not quite done.

 I remember sitting in my Kitchen when i was about seven and planning with my parents where I wanted to go for university. - Admittedly i had originally aimed for Oxford, (dream big) but my directions have changed a little since then and i'll happily settle for Canterbury!
The next few days are going to be a blur.
Tomorrow i'm doing some last minute holiday shopping, Friday Imay or may not be going to see a production of 'Tap Dogs' in London's West End, Saturday i have reserved to  sleep and pack and Sunday i'm going to Newquay - Cornwall with a group of friends for four days!
Squeeeeeee!

I'm getting so excited, in Newquay it's four days relaxing, surfing lessons, horse riding, deep sea fishing and just being with my group of friends (some of them i've been with since we started secondary school back in year seven and some of them are newer friends and others i've know for about sixteen years.)
 It's admittedly probably the last time we'll all be together as a 'group', it's bittersweet, it'll be amazing to all just spend a few crazy days together, but after we've all gone to Uni there's quite a few i probably won't see much again, it's like a final big group effort.

(The utter cheese in the next bit almost makes me cringe, so feel free to skip.)

It's weird thinking i've been at the same school for seven years, i've become who i am today because of everything that's happened there. (I did warn you,) I'm the person i am because of the people i met, some of them taunted the hell out of me for a few years, and some of them were by my side every step of the way.
It's amazing the kind of people who are willing to stand by you when you need them.
 I'm almost sad to be going, I was one of those people who almost managed to enjoy going to school, but then again I am so, SO ready to go to university and see what's coming next.
