Whilst getting ready the other Sunday night, I realised that soon I was going to have to grow up - I turn 20 in December and the thought of not being a teen is quite daunting. Does anyone else have this fear or is it just me? I remember my cousin demanding that he was 'twenteen' not twenty and therefore still allowed to be rebellious and immature, but he eventually grew up and is now a long way from his adolescence. It's also strange to think that 5 years ago I was getting ready to start my GCSE years and I was terrified! What seemed like so much back then, I now realise was nothing in comparison to the work I'm facing in the second year of my degree; then yet even more this time next year!
Leaving the next morning though, I felt prepared. I'd bought myself a new backpack, pencil case and notebook (I don't care how old I am, buying new stationary for the start of term is tradition)! I also got a cute travel mug from the Eden Project, so now I can drink tea and stay environmentally friendly.
