No4: Growing Up

I'm writing this post 2 weeks after my last first-year university exam. I'm 1/3 of the way through my course which is a thought that terrifies me. So much has changed in this past year, but at the same time I sort of feel no different - and I'm certainly not prepared to accept that I am growing up!

When I was younger, I always thought that I would know what I want to do with my life by the time I went to sixth form (or at least by the time I had to pick what to do afterwards!). Unfortunately not. I still have no idea what I want to do 'in the future' (getting scarily closer) or 'when I grow up' but am just hoping one day I'll wake up and have an epiphany: 'Of course! I've always wanted to be a penguin trainer/tree painter/insert job title here...'. Until then I'm just going to have to blunder around hoping to stumble into something else to do.

Seriously though... I know how that little hippo feels

On the plus side, I have just gained my first ever paid job as a student ambassador (come to my uni, it's great! ;) ) so could theoretically start a proper CV and all that... or just not? 
Seriously though, sometimes I do feel grown up and independent and other times I feel like I'm about 10 and have literally no idea how to look after myself. I feel like this post isn't very coherent as it is literally just a brain splurge but please tell me other people feel this way!
