It's been a funny few weeks! I recently finished college and in the week after me leaving I had one crazy time! So crazy my bank balance doesn't remember what happened, and neither do I! Tomorrow I go away to Spain for 10 days with a group of friends and, surprisingly, I really just wanna drink but I just don't think that's good to be on the agenda 24/7!
It may sound like I'm absolute alcoholic but I can assure you I am not! A good friend of mine recently said to me "enjoy these few weeks, relax and unwind" and she is so totally right! I have spent 13 years solidly working towards greatness within my education so why can't I have a crazy few weeks and do things that I regret? Because I suppose, when you think about it, the saying 'You're only young once' is so true, and so apt right now! These next few weeks are essentially the calm before a storm. August 15th is the day we get out A-Level results and is the day I decide if I actually go to uni or not, which in essence is my future, my life. I don't know where I'm headed from here! After this holiday I reach the horizon, the goal, the inventive to continue on and trudge through.
I don't just unwind with a 2ltr bottle of Smirnoff in my left hand and a fag in the other, oh no! Yesterday I went watching one of the most inspiring and uplifting yet heart rending productions of Tim Firth's "Calendar Girls". I had such a fabulous time watching this seemingly high budget amateur production in Wigan's own Wigan Little Theatre. I have been lucky enough to watch every single play they have put on in the past two years, and have renewed my season ticket once more for a third year because the actors who perform here are too notch, and I think to myself "I'd love that to be me up there" I spot parts that I could so have played, but I just don't know what to do. Do I go into a career in media, or do I stick to the life I have loved for the past two years; being a 'thespian'? Honestly I suppose I'll decide that on August 15th 2013 where my life as an actual, working, adult may start. But no matter where I end up in life I'm sure ill be fine, because the good friend of mine also once said to me "no matter where life takes you, you will be happy".
