Graduation

Lolz at the photo with the watermarks but I'm not paying twenty quid for a copy of the most awkward photo of me ever.

Just over two weeks ago, my family and I squashed into the car and made the 2.5 hour journey down South to Winchester for my Graduation. It was a lovely day, it was so nice to be back in Winchester and to see some of my best friends. I wore a forest green skater dress from New Look which I'd had for a few weeks. I didn't see the point of buying anything new as it was just getting covered up by the gown anyway! Seeing everyone in the gowns was so surreal, I felt like we were going to Hogwarts, especially when we were inside Winchester Cathedral! Me and my friends Jade and Selina had our photo taken for the Hampshire Chronicle (bottom left photo!) just before we went in.

I'm so pleased to have finally graduated but most of all, I'm really proud of myself for what I've achieved over the past three years. Without getting into details, there were a lot of times when I didn't think I could carry on, especially after my nan died but I did carry on and I'm so glad I did. I know my nan would be very proud of me too.
