Hey guys,
I don't even know if anyone reads this stuff but I like rambling and sharing my photos, even if I just think people are looking at it.
Recently, I've been very busy with trying to find housemates and a place to live in Norwich, which isn't exactly easy, if you have to do it all over the internet and judge properties only by pictures - those can be very misleading at times.
I was very scared when I first started looking for people to live with, but found a really nice girl, also from an EU country, whom I right away clicked with. I know it sounds stupid to say that about a person whom you haven't even met in real life, but we've talked almost every single day now for almost 2 months and I feel like we'll be great friends, once we actually meet each other.
Originally we wanted to live with two or three other English people and started looking for some, but it didn't seem like anyone was really interested, nor cared about finding a place to live - at least not yet. I don't understand how people are so chilled about it, it's not like there's much time until September!
We have now found two other girls, also from other EU countries and we are going to be housemates! I only started speaking to them a couple of days ago but it feels exactly like it does with the first girl: we click!
They all come across as very organised, because we all want to find a house ASAP and we are working together really well, to get there.
We have emailed so many landlords and looked at so many properties online, my head can almost not deal with it anymore. But it's a lot of fun at the same time!
I feel less scared and safer with these girls and can't wait to actually move to Norwich!
Once it gets to the difficult bits, like understanding and agreeing to a contract, payments, taxes, actually moving, that "feeling less scared"-feeling might fade away for a while, but I'm sure we'll support each other - considering we are all in the same boat!

Topic change! On the weekend my parents celebrated their company's 10 year anniversary with a huge party. It was wonderful and I loved it! Not only did I get to see so many people which I hardly ever see, for example family members, who live quite far away, but I also had a great time with my friends, whom I was allowed to invite.
Have a few pictures of us, because I can't have a post on here without any visual content :)
I am only now realising how much I am going to miss these people and that school is over in less than 3 weeks. It's unbelievable how quickly 13 years can pass. I will be leaving school with incredible memories and amazing friends and I will also probably cry a lot when we actually have to say goodbye to each other.
I had an amazing time growing up with these guys but at some point, it's time to finish a chapter in your life and move on to the next one. University that is, in my life, and I cannot wait until it starts!
