The Most Likely To...

Good evening bloggers... It's been a while ;)

Acknowledgements

I used to think I had forever to know what I wanted to do, what I wanted to be, and who I wanted to be with. Now I sit here, 4 days from handing in the single most important piece of work I have ever had to do, and under two months from having finished my university life. I look around me and think about what I have achieved, and I immediately know that I have achieved nothing more important than meeting the most amazing people.

Often people ask me what's next? And I am confident in answering that I am not all that sure at the moment. I have a dream of living in New York, of being accepted onto the Mountbatten Programme, and of living my life how I wish to. Do I have a plan B? At the moment I do not, I wish I did, but I simply know not what I want to do. I am indecisive. I feel incomplete. I have not yet reached the point in my life where I can openly say I am ready to move on from this life, a life that revolves around socialising, around friendships and close bonds. I dare not cut the ties, for I wish not for the bridges to fall.

They say you lose touch with something like 90% of the people you meet across your academic life, I will forever try to prove this wrong. I have been studying in higher education now for six years if you include sixth form, and I find it one of the easiest things when I say, I regret nothing. Especially not meeting all the people I have. Sure I have not got along with everyone, I mean come on, I’m ginger, I’m a fiery git! But I would not change my situation for anything else in the world, I would not give up the troubles and trials I have met to have coated through. I would not change the hard work and late nights for a free ride. And I most certainly would have not change the break-ups and make-ups for a care-free life, for every single experience, good or bad, has led to me being who I am right here right now. And of myself, I could not be prouder.

I have met, loved and even lost some of the greatest, smartest, funniest and, without a doubt, craziest characters possible, and this blog is a dedication to all those, across four fantastic years of university. I thank you all for your friendship and your love. I hope this supplies even just a small taste of the warm, kind, humorous and perfect feeling that you have given me. Lets get this show started.

The Nominations for 'Most Likely To... Succeed' Are...

Well there are no nominations for this one. It is simple. I need not think about it and nobody need debate it. You all will. No matter if you have been mentioned or not. Such as Geoff or Clodagh, James or James Tom, Tom or Tom, Oli or whoever. No fret, no worries. I have faith in us all, for this generation is the special, we are special. We will be great, not because of what we have achieved thus far, but for what we will achieve in the years to come because of what we have learnt from one another. So tomorrow, when you are freaking out over exams, assignments, dissertations or essays. Relax. Take a breath and look at those around you, and think of this. One day you will be successful, in whatever you do, you will be successful, be it a great parent, a rich businessman, a coveted novelist, a wily reporter or brilliant teacher, no matter what you do, you will be successful and it will not be from what you learnt in school, in lectures and in books, but because of what you learnt from one another. That is perhaps the greatest lesson you can learn.


Happy Blogging :)
