After weeks of panicking about running out of money and budgeting like crazy, I finally may have a summer job lined up... and it's at the university!!
If I get this job it means I'll be able to afford the Malawi trip next year. I genuinely thought I wouldn't be able to go because Student Finance England is ridiculous, and I was so upset because it's what I want to do as a job and not going on the trip would seriously impact my future.
I'm also happy because I'm just enjoying spending my final week here...
When I'm stressed, I suffer from panic attacks and after all the anxiety regarding my financial situation, I was not in a good place (hence my lack of blogging).
But as I've come to the end of my first year at university, I've had time to reflect on the year and how great it has been as a whole.
I have met some of the most incredible friends in the entire world (sounds cheesy, I know). I have come out of my shell enormously thanks to my wonderful housemates and geography pals.
I was lucky enough to visit Spain and broaden my geographical horizons (and get drunk a lot).
But seriously, if anyone is wondering whether university is a good idea or not I can honestly say YES it is (a blog post to follow on this).
I now have the whole summer to look forward to. On Sunday I'm going on a family holiday to Spain - which will be so lovely as since I've been at uni, I've really missed spending quality time with my parents and sister.
Then, on 1st July I will be moving into my very first house with three friends.
I cannot believe this.
Our own proper house.
So yes, I have plenty of things to look forward to and I am feeling so content with life at the moment.
I wonder how long this will last?
