So I'm moving up into my University on the 19th of September. I'm moving out of my mum's house, going up to a University that is 90-odd miles away from my hometown.

Holy crackers that's a distance.

I'm excited. I'll be meeting new people, going on an adventure, studying a course that I'm thoroughly interested in (Media Production and Creative Writing). I'm thrilled. The fact that I'm going to be encouraged to film things and create... I'm hoping I'll have my opportunity to get myself out there to the world and say "hey, look at what I can do!".

But all those things terrify me at the same time. Being away from my hometown where I feel "safe", meeting new people who may not like me, studying a course which ultimately dooms me a failure in the skills I lead myself to believe that I have.

It's all so scary and thrilling at the same time. I'm scared about everything yet excited about everything. But hey, it's a step forward in my life and finally a sense of direction. Maybe other people will think I'm good at the whole camera thing.

Fingers crossed.
