So. The tenth of April... I'll never be able to make a post when I'm 20 years old ever again. But that's not a problem at all. I start the 21st year of my life tomorrow and things are looking great for a fantastic year.

I'm just 3 months away from completing my 16 year long career in education. It'll be a tough time finishing my 3rd year project and revising for exams, but the end is in sight and that's exciting. No more "be taught" -> "revise" -> "exam" loop!

When I finish, I know I've got a job secured. I've been working there for years and I'm very happy with my job and the people I work with. My bosses have been fantastic to me with their support over my 3 years at Uni and I'm anticipating a very satisfying position in my full-time place there.

As the job is where my parents used to live before I went to Uni, I'm having to move back to Hitchin. So in a few months I shall be a home owner. I can't wait to kit the flat out and decorate each room to exactly how I want! It's such an exciting time, house hunting.

I also start this year with a girlfriend whom I'm rather greatly fond of. I've spent the past week with Laura and I've had so much fun. She's not only gorgeous with her cute smile and loving cuddles, but probably more importantly her personality is marvellous. She's kind, thoughtful, sensitive, intelligent and funny. But it's also the small things that all add up. She makes the bed every morning(!), she's always attentive in conversation, her short term memory is outstanding... I'll stop before I risk sounding too cheesy, but needless to say, I adore her! :)

I'm sure there are other long-term issues that're going well at the moment, but I can't think of any worth mentioning right now. House, job and girlfriend seems to cover it all. So, it's with a great big smile of anticipation that I enter the 22nd year of my life.
