I'm finding it so difficult to write this blog post because my life is all still a blur for me at the moment. On Friday I found out that I had landed myself an incredible job in London, and I still don't think I can quite believe it. I am due to start on 1st September, so sorting accommodation, transport and the big move down South has taken up a lot of my time, but it still hasn't really hit me that I will be moving away once more.
I am so so excited it is unreal. This is everything I had ever worked for, everything I've ever wanted for myself, but it doesn't stop me being completely terrified now that it is happening. I am still waiting for that moment when I wake up and realise it's all a dream, or when they say they made a mistake in contacting me or something.
My accommodation is all sorted now and I am basically counting down the days until the big move. I know it will be sometime next week, but not sure on the specifics yet. I'm very scared about moving because I am used to living in a rural little bubble which I know like the back of my hand. Which feels comfortable, familiar and therefore safe to me. Everyone I love most in the world is in this tiny little rural bubble with me and so it does make me quite sad to think I can't hop in the car and see whoever I want within a few minutes.
I don't think I'd ever feel completely ready for the move, but I know that it is the right thing for me to do. This career is everything I've ever worked for since my GCSEs. it's the only thing I've ever really wanted to do, and I am so excited to be in the capital with so many tourist attractions, musicals, exhibitions, and things to do. This is literally a massive new chapter in my life and I can't wait to share my little adventure with you every step of the way.

DeleteCongratulations! That's amazing. It's four years since I did the same and I still have to pinch myself sometimes to convince myself it's all real. Best of luck for the move and the new job!
