New Beginnings!

Everyone in their life go through new things all the time, whether it's big or small it happens every day. It can always be very overwhelming and this is why I haven't been posting as much recently. SO much has been going on, new things that I have either loved or not, and it isn't just happening to me.


Recently, I moved house. This was a big thing because I was moving out of the town that I have lived my whole life. It is very different moving into a new house. Boxing up and unboxing everything you own, learning how to use the gas and electric, learning to use all the new things involved in this one house that your going to live in for years. Some people do not move house there whole lives until they grow into adults which is a even bigger step because it's all new. I defiantly am scared of what the future will hold and having all those grown up responsibilities that will come with growing older in only age, just a number effecting your whole life. Voting, paying debts, moving, getting bigger jobs, having families. So much to do in just one life. Moving house made me have a different view on many things including money. In costs so much so now I have started applying for more jobs to let my parents focus mainly on the house, bills etc. rather then spending unnecessary money on me but it is all new which is scary but exciting!

Also new things that have been happening is that I started college. For 5 years, I have been going to high school, having the same way lessons go, having the same people in my year, same friends, falling out with the same people over and over again. I rarely met new people until the two sides (Until year 9 the year was split into two sides). I then met new people in my classes but it still all felt the same. Now college has started, the year, friendships have gone to different 6 forms, colleges. It's all changed. Especially the way college learns. Doing a BTEC, they're no exams, only assignments and coursework. It is harder work but if your doing a subject you love then it is all worth while. Also meeting new people. I have made some new amazing friends and I still talk to everyone from my old high school that are not there or are not on the same course anymore. It's a big step in your life especially if you are shy and do not have all the confidence to do these things but there's nothing to be scared of. It may be different at first but as you get used to it, it becomes a amazing experience and can be very enjoyable.

As well as that, this year I went on a cruise for the first time. This was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had and I am defiantly going on one again. It was the first huge holiday I have been on as it was going to 3 countries and there was so much to consider when going on a cruise. Money exchanges, if you need a visa, where to go, times to go and how much it will actually cost over all. I learnt a lot from this holiday which will lead into my future.

Finally, job interviews. Everyone has to go to a job interview at least once in there life. Whether it's a full time. part time, summer job. It can always be daunting and I was very nervous at my first one but one you get in there, you will be confident and be able to answer anything they asked. As long as you have told the truth on your application form/CV, it will go a breeze. There is absolutely nothing to worry about. It is new to everyone and if it is a group interview, it might be new to them as well. They may only last about 10-20 minutes so it isn't that big and it can lead into something bigger.

New beginnings happen every day, every year for everyone. There is nothing to be scared of. It's life and it can lead to something things. All you have to do is take the risk and you will see in the end that it will all turn out either as you planned or something even better.
