It is my 18th birthday the day after tomorrow (eekkk). Yes, it's on April fools day, but weirder still is that I share my birthday with;
-My Dad
-My Uncle
-My Step Cousin
-My Step Cousins Step Mum
-The Boy Who Lives Down My Road
-My Friend
I was thinking about how much of a coincidence this is the other day. It seems ridiculous so I had the thought that perhaps it was all just a April Fools joke. Can you imagine on my 18th birthday if my dad turned round and said
"APRIL FOOLS. Your birthday is really on the 17th of Ocotober"
I think my whole life would just collapse. I would have been living a lie. It was a horrible thought.
ANYWAY
I have planned a party in a bar in Brighton and the theme is moustaches WHAT ELSE?! I am soo excited about my birthday and being 18. I will be thoroughly suprised if I do not wake up on friday with a new adult outlook on life (eg. no more tickling, no more stupid accents, a sudden urge to get a career, and generally opposite to how I am now) But I preparing myself for the unlikely situation if this does not happen.

In other news I am in the process of moving forward to university DUN DUN DAHH.
I have got offers from 3 of the 5 that I applied to and in May I have to slim that down to my first and second choice. I am thinking about choosing Exeter and Central but I don't know what order :S It's all so confusing but I am thankful that I even have the option of choosing out of 3.
UEA rejected me which stung a bit because I LOVED their campus and could completely see myself living and studying there. But, L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N. as they say and both Exeter and Central have brilliant reputations and I really liked them when I visited them.
At college I am in the middle of devising a Shakespeare piece (Measure For Measure) which I think is going REALLY WELL. I am so proud of my group because we all have ideas and (most of the time) can work productively and successfully together to produce great work. I am so excited to get it all together, especially the final scene which we are going to go all out on (but you have to come and see it to know what I'm talking about)
My Inter-rail ticket came through the post a few days ago and it has got me all excited for my summer. I have Glastonbury STRAIGHT after my final exam (and I mean straight after, I get on a train straight from college) Then on the 4th of july I can start using my inter-rail ticket which is valid until the 25th of july. Then in August I go to France with la famille, which is always lovely. Then the rest of the time until I start Uni (eekk) is PARTAY time!
As exams leer over me, like annoying parent peering over my shoulder to see if I'm doing my work right, I am realising how close the end of college is. I can truely say that the last 2 years have been the best of my life. The friends I've made are friends for life and I am going to miss them so much when I leave :( I also think I've changed while I've been in college as well. Going to college had given me a chance to meet lots of different people and I think (although I can act like a child) I've matured in the way that I think. It's taught me that you don't need to work hard to be 'cool'. Your real friends should love you no matter what you do. (CHEESEE but it's true) I know a lot of people who try to hard to be accepted, it's a waste of time.
Thanks for reading
LOVE YOU
