Enjoying my time at home

This year is going to be a big change for me as in September, all being well, I will be going to Uni and so this is really my last year living at home which is quite scary and weird to think about. I have to be honest been not thinking about it too much because I have still got a lot of things coming up before then like, my exams, a holiday and then I have all the planning to do for where I will live and moving all my stuff so its sort of at the back of my mind.

The thing I am least looking forward to is leaving my dog Monty! He still only 1 and I love walking him and grooming him and coming home to him waiting for me at the front door so it will be really hard not waking up and seeing him everyday. This is also my last school holiday before I leave college so after this I've got one last term and then I'm done for the summer and finally free! I'm really looking forward to starting my course, living on my own and being more independent but mostly I actually can't wait to see who's on my course and what it's like!!

As well as blogging and coursework I have been loving reading my latest book, The Cuckoo's Calling, which is one that my Mum and Grandparents have all read and thought I'd like it too. Its good so far and I would say it's very similar to the TV series Luther, a sort of crime book focusing on the main character Strike who is a private detective. I haven't finished it yet but people that like crime and mystery, this book is for you.

 I've got some really exciting things to look forward to this summer and I have just been enjoying what I'm doing but getting the balance right between doing work and having time for myself and doing exciting things. This easter I've been able to get loads of coursework done but I have also had time to be out in the nice weather, going for walks, swimming and spending time with people and I have honestly felt so happy and like I've finally got the balance right!!
