Turning 20

Everyone that knows me well knows how apprehensive I have been about turning 20, it is the only age I was not happy about turning. The reasons for this I don't really know because I know it is just an age. But as my birthday is in less than two weeks I have started to feel okay about it, I'm in a good place in my life I have a flat and live with some amazing people, Im loving my uni degree and am surrounded by people I adore. I have a hectic social life and am playing two sports which is something I never thought I would have the confidence to do, so what difference does not having "teen" in my age mean anymore? It just means I can't sing 'teenage dirt bag' anymore, which yes I am very upset about and I plan to sing my heart out to that song the night before my birthday for one last time. Another year older doesn't make me feel any different or act any different so I am determined to not be bothered that I am entering my 20s. Everyone always says that your 20s are the best years of your life and I'm ready to discover whether thats true, heres to being 20!
 

A New Chapter

A month ago I began another huge chapter of my live, I packed up my life, moved out of my family home and moved to Sheffield for University. Ive only spent 4 weeks in this busy city and I have already fallen in love. There is always something going on and you never feel alone. I moved into halls, my flat is spacious and homely, I adore my flatmates I got super lucky. I live with a girl called Teagan who I spent the majority of my time with and also a girl called Sarita who is our adopted flatmate, I couldn't ask for two better friends to spend the next three years with. I already refer to Sheffield as home, Im definitely a city girl, I feel like I truly fit in here. Im studying Acting and I adore it, the course has a variety of modules and my course mates are so much fun, I have four guys that I'm super close with. The nightlife is incredible, there is so many different clubs, pubs and bars, there is something for everyone. Everyone is super friendly and I'm enjoying meeting new people. Ive joined two sports society, Lacrosse and trampolining, Lax is so different and fun. Im loving seeing how much you progress in Trampolining in such a small space of time. I also love the social side of these sports, every wednesday all of us Lax girls go on a night out together for an event called Hallam Nation (a club that all of the sports teams go to) and we dress up our first week we all had white tops on that everyone wrote on, the second week it was "cave girl" me, Teagan and Sarita DIY'd it and I think it was a huge success and next week it is Retro sport and Im already excited. Moving to Sheffield was one of my best life decisions and I'm excited for more months of fun.
