Happy October, Everyone!

Well hello there to all that read my blog! Happy October! Can you believe it is already October?! I have had a good start to the month; driving lessons are going brilliantly and I'm feeling more and more comfortable every week. I am actually going to be buying a car very soon so it is all very exciting!



I went to see The Kooks in Glasgow and they were amazing! What an atmosphere. It is truly beautiful and euphoric to be a part of a crowd; all there to see and hear the same thing, the same expectations, the same interest of the band. Music brings people of all races, backgrounds and ages together - it's magic. I went with my boyfriend and our friend and we all were extremely excited about that night! As it was the mind-boggling heat wave in Britain at the end of September, we were all dressed in very summery clothes i.e. short shorts and a very thin, floaty T-shirt (not my boyfriend, of course!) and when we all arrived in Glasgow... it was raining; lightly at first but in the queue to get in to Barrowlands it started chucking it down. However, we all got hot and sweaty in the gig anyway so it was all part of the fun.


At my dancing school, we are all getting more and more excited about our Christmas Show and so it's all about getting measured for our outfits for each dance and doing the dances over and over and over again. The anticipation of the shows is so huge and since it is my last show, I want to do the best I have ever done and so I'm going to try to get my positioning, timing and performance perfect to impress my teacher and the audience who have come to watch.




 As it is my final year at school, I have been signing up for everything that would be beneficial for my university application form and for pursuing my own ambitions. I have 3 hours a week dedicated to being a classroom assistant and supervised teacher at the local primary school, I have a workshop tomorrow with the 2nd years in my school who all seem to be exceptionally naughty to experience problematic behaviour, I have my Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award, possibly work experience of teaching French to children, I am front desk of the Violin Is for the String Orchestra of my County and I am sitting two violin exams this academic year. I am also in the Senior Choir for the third year running! It's all very busy on top of another four Highers at school too but I'm sure it will all be worth it.
