Solipsus

Thought it was week ago, I have officially signed off and left my sixth form college and am ready to embark on the rest of my life. All exams are finished and all 12 month overdue library books handed in! The only problem is that it has not quite hit me yet that I have left and will probably never see a lot of the people in my year ever again. I still feel that I will be going back in a few weeks.

However, it was a very different story when I left my primary school. After our final assembly; in which we performed songs, dances and the like; I broke down into hysterical tears and therefore other people breaking down in the same way when they say me. Instead of a group of 11 year olds excited about the prospect of a new school and friends, it was more like some kids from reception denied their play time!

University will start for mw on September 1st, and whilst I am thrilled to be meeting new people, being in a new place after 7 years, but at the same time scared that my abilities will not be as good as the others and therefore affect my confidence and the outcomes of my work. I am going to an art university (University of Creative Arts at Maidstone, Kent) to study Graphic Media, and having never done Art since Year 9, this might be a new challenge, surrounded by talented artists… In the mean time I will just be busying myself with work at Tescos and multiple website projects for clients.
