Essays, Essays and more essays

Yes, it's happened. I have finally been suffocated by the burden of the University essay. Today has been absolute hell. I'm sure you've all been there. That one essay that has no beginning and definitely no end. The one that leaves you procrastinating like you've never procrastinated before! I've made notes about the essay, notes about the notes and notes about making notes and I've finally hit the huge sized wall in front of me. 
However, with this endless writing, comes a sad humble feeling that all of this, all of this essay writing, the lectures, the seminars: they're all ending. I will never have a 9am Wednesday lecture again and I will never have to write about Global Post Colonialism again. 
It also means that I have to move out of the lovely flat that I have called home for the last year. My gorgeous red leather sofa and underfloor heating. It will all be gone in a matter of weeks and I'm dreading it. I'm dreading it because, for the first time in my life, I have no idea what it next. There's no GCSEs to pass, or A-levels to struggle with. No UCAS forms or Halls to pick. No results days. No Uni. Just nothing. 
I don't know whether I'm excited or scared. I don't know if I'm ready. I guess I have to be. Now is the time to face that big bad world that you were told about as a kid and finally become one of those boring "grown up" thingeys. Wish me luck!

  1. I'm finding myself in the same position after finishing Uni this month. The thought of full time work is scary as all I've known is full time education! I'm now faced with trying to find a decent job. Good luck, let me know how you get on =) xox
