So the day has finally come for me to leave Cardiff. Tomorrow I fly to Bosnia. The time has gone by so quickly, I really don't know where it went. This week in particular has flown by. As well as packing, saying goodbye, sorting things out I have also picked up my GCSE results. All in all a very stressful week!
But luckily my results weren't too bad. Everything is now ready to go!
Now the suitcase is packed, not with the piles upon piles of clothing I initially thought were essential but with a more suitable option. I have also discovered that vacuum bags are the way forward for travelling with lots of clothes! After much shoving and squeezing all that needs to go, fits into a small black rectangle.
It deffinatley hasn't sunk in that I am going to Bosnia and won't be home until Christmas. I think I'm just too excited to think about leaving. I said goodbye to some of my friends today, and they gave me an amazing calender filled with all our photographs. I love it. I've also had lovely letters wishing me good luck from an assortment of friends and family. It really is appreciated.
Today, the phone has been ringing constantly. Everyone wanting to know my results and to wish me luck before I go. You would think I was never coming back! But it is a really nice feeling to know how much people care. I also went to see Murphy, I'm going to miss him so much. It's not only him I'm giving up but 12 years of horse riding. Still it hasn't hit me that I'm leaving it behind. Maybe once everything has settled down and I have calmed down I'll be able to let it sink in.
So, this is my last post, for a while, from Britain. Thank you to everyone for your support and well, everything!
