I Got Into University!

As I sit at my laptop writing this out, I still cannot believe I got into University today. I didn't really sleep well knowing that within 12 hours I could be celebrating that I got in or crying that I didn't. But as I woke up at 6am, I calmed my nerves and got ready for what I knew would have been an emotional day.

As the time got closer to 8am, I was told Track was open. This is where I could see if I got into Derby Uni or not. I was so nervous. I knew I had tried my best but I knew that it could be the other way and I should have tried harder. I typed in my credentials and pressed enter. I covered my hand over my phone screen as I couldn't look. I was so nervous.

Eventually, I uncovered my hand and saw I had got into Derby University. I couldn't believe it and I instantly started crying because I knew my best had paid off and even though I didn't know my grades, I was and am so happy I got into my first choice uni!

I honestly can say that my life is starting to get better and getting into Uni has made me proud of myself and I hope my mum is proud of me for all that of I have achieved and what I will achieve in the next 3 years.

I cannot wait to start Univeristy and am so happy I got in. Thank you to everyone who supported me through everything, I cannot thank you enough for the support I have received from everyone. Thank you.

I hope you got/get the results you hoped for and you got into the University you wanted. So raise a glass, drink some alcohol and party as theres 3 weeks left of the summer till University. Bring on the rest of the sun!

Moving Out: 1 Year On

Now I waited a little bit after the 30th June to write this post (a month basically) mainly because I moved out of halls and into a house and basically I was busy with finding jobs and doing bits on the side and have been very M.I.A with my blog at the moment and I apologise so here is a long blog post about what happened after I moved out and where I am today and how I got here. So I left home (my Nan's house) on the 30th June 2016. That day was so hard for me. Leaving a place I called home was really scary but I knew at that point in my life I had to do it there and then. I waited with a friend and I stayed at his house for a few nights while I sorted things out and where I was going to stay and things like that. I was going to be moving into halls on September 10th that year for University so I had about 2-3 months to figure out where I would be staying and how I would get all my stuff for University with no job and no home. After a few days at that friend’s house, I was abl...

Life is too Short..

Over the weekend, we have heard that Christina Grimmie was shot dead at her concert in Orlando and a mass shooting again in Orlando at Pulse nightclub where over 50 people were killed. This has to stop. Gun control needs to be in place otherwise these attacks will keep happening in the future. It makes me think though, life is too short. Life is too short to worry about things. Do things that make you happy and that make you feel alive. Don't feel sad because something is over, feel happy because it happened and then find something else to focus on. If you focus on the good things, you will have a better life. Yes there will be ups and downs but getting out of the downs will make you a stronger person. If you lead your life on negatives you will not get happier and you won't find the positives to focus on. Take life by the balls and live life to the fullest because I promise you, you will find those things that make you happy and that make you want to jump up and down in jo...

2017?!

It's less than a week till 2017? How did the year go so fast? It's Christmas Day tomorrow! Merry Christmas to those reading this! Let's be honest, it has been a shit year for all of us. We have lost so many amazing people: David Bowie Alan Rickman Sir Terry Wogan Frank Kelly (Father Jack on TV Series Father Ted) Sir George Martin Paul Daniels Ronnie Corbett David Gest Victoria Wood Prince Muhammed Ali Gene Wilder Leonard Cohen Fidel Castro and so many more. Some of these like Wogan and Corbett, I didn't even know about until last month. Knowing that these people who brought comedy and happiness into our lives through so many ways is so upsetting to see and really shows you that life is short and that this year has also gone so quick. I remember the day when Alan Rickman died. I was at school doing coursework for my final film in Media. It seems so long ago now. I have been through so much this year. Handing my final coursework in for Media and ICT and...
