I dreamed a dream....

I'm so excited! This is it! This time I know it's for real! I believe I can fly! There are countless song titles to express how Im feeling right now!  My results are all in!  And I got a distinction in my English exam! So I've finished this course with a 99% attendance rate, with my only absence being that I'd gone to a University interview.  I've got 3 marks at merit and 42 marks at distinction, alongside 15 passes (they were pass/fail results) and I am beyond chuffed!  I worked my arse off throughout this course, alongside running my salon and my household. It's been my biggest challenge to date both physically, mentally and emotionally, but I have loved it! Truly loved it!  I'm so pleased that I've hit the entry marks for UEA but I feel like I'm dreaming right now. Until I get a confirmation of a guaranteed place I'm not counting my chickens.  But as far as this course is concerned a strong wind has arisen behind me, and I'm being blown towards the light, towards a new beginning to my life, a chance for me to progress myself both mentally and emotionally, to achieve a lifelong dream!  Simultaneously I'm reflecting on the reason I started down this path, and wishing Linzi was here to celebrate with me now, but she isn't here. I really miss her.  She's often in my thoughts and she's still my driving force, whenever I've felt I couldn't be arsed it's as though she's been there to tell me to get on with it.  I hope her spirit remains with me as I travel across the sea that's now in view. I know land will be a long way off, there will be choppy waves ahead and obstacles in my way, but I hope that Linzi will be travelling this route with me...x
