September Stumbles
The heading refers to change. A lot of change is going to occur this month, which is a good thing especially as this is my favourite month of the year. Speaking of 2011, so much has happened. From the personal change of finally leaving college/A Levels to the Arab Spring with all the uprisings in the Middle East. What about the last Harry Potter film coming out? Or the London Riots in August where the city was a smoking mess? The anniversary of 9/11 was also only a few days ago. It's been 10 years.
I digress. The first stumble is the fact I'm going to university this year. Brunel University actually, to study Politics & History. I can't wait to finally start this new chapter in my life. It's a year late, but I'm still very much so excited. Not so much Freshers' Week and really the first month of university life, but thereafter. I finally know what I'm doing in the near future. Anything beyond the next 3 years is a blur. I don't know what it consists of; a blank page, an empty road etcetc. Still, hopefully, these next few years will be both challenging and fulfilling. Hopefully.
The next stumble is my birthday. I'll be turning 20 years old. My teenage years are officially over. My age will never start with "1" ever again. It's over. My twenties are the only way forward now.
I'm petrified.
But, I'll have to suck it up, I have no choice and time moves so fast. It's already September.
In other news, I'm currently reading "The Wise Man's Fear", the next book in the KingKiller Chronicle series by Patrick Rothfuss. The book came out in March but I wanted to wait until it came out in paperback (November) but I couldn't do it, especially after I started reading "The Name of the Wind" again. I needed the next one straight away, so I bought it online.
Student Loans should be coming soon, and I'm getting way more money than I actually need. I say this aloud, and people think I'm insane. I don't need all that money; I'm going to buy so much junk.
Still obsessed with Adele. Add: Ed Sheeran and JCole.
My next update will probably be directly from my university-self. Can't wait.
