- Turns out I won't be needing to find a gutter to live in, got AAB on results day! (Got an E in maths too but I'm not really bragging about that oddly enough)
- The Olympics were so awesome, watching all the events has definitely pushed me in the right direction, and despite how lame that sounds I know they couldn't have come at a better time for me
- On a sports note, I've started training for my 10km run in August, taken up road biking (kind of, more borrowing somebodies bike until I can afford my own) aand finally passed my pool lifeguard course.
- I've basically grown a pair on the whole being dumped front. Not literally, that would be weird. I guess I went a bit crazy with girl power after listening to too much beyonce, and then after that rather odd phase passed I was just left with an overwhelming desire to put the past behind me. Sure it still hurts, a lot, and I know as soon as I go back to school it'll sting again like it were all fresh but I know I can deal with it now.
“I’m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don’t have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world. I run my world.”

- I worked up in Plymouth for 2 weeks for my aunt helping look after my cousins as their not in school which was pretty cool, more tiring and cool but I can't complain too much really, I got paid. 2 of my cousins have special needs, so spending more time with them really helped me put my 'problems' in perspective, and in a lot of ways gave me a new outlook on a lot of things (I know, deep).
- Working up by the coast reminded me how much I love it up there, so I'm choosing Exeter as my first choice for uni next year. Gonna hope for the best!
- On that not, I've figured out what other unis I'm going to apply too, considering this time next year I'll be pretty much there. Bit daunting but I'm actually looking forward to change for once in my life, I could definitely do with getting away from some of the memories that I have here (not all, just some)
That's basically a pretty average summer summed up. Probably the worst blogger on the earth, summing things up in bullet points but whatever. Back to school next week and being the keener that I am I can't say I'm too bothered about it. The quicker I get stuck back into my new courses the quicker they'll be done and the quicker I can get on with the life I very desperately want too live.
