Sunburn, fun and friends.

So, if you've seen my new vlog it will be no surprise to you that I am sunburnt once more though thankfully just on my shoulders and a little on my face. So no harm like the last time!

My best friend pointed out that I look happy in my latest vlog, and I guess I'd have to say that I am. I was holing myself up in my room beforehand wondering whether I was posting too much on Facebook or Twitter and whether my best friends would become sick of this and not want to know anymore. Nothing on them; just my own paranoia at play. There was also the fact that I didn't want to become closer with the people here because saying goodbye would be so difficult. So, after speaking to a friend here, I was told to just get on with it and involve myself in things and not think about the goodbye until it comes. A good philosophy to have and I took that on board today and did have a lot of fun...but there's no amount of saying that could make me want my best friends here more. 

They complete me and I'm a little lost without them, truth be told. 

Hope they're okay...

No Mug For Me

I didn't get a mug today after my faculty meeting so I guess the languages people don't like us. I really wanted this mug so I could have a proper cup of tea :(

Maybe I shall just have to wait and see whether Spain produces me with one. 

Also, really missing my friends today.

The Me Inside

Tonight I've been having a bit of trouble trying to write a letter to my brother. It's easier said than done. We may have the same mother but we know nothing about each other really and it's causing a lot of issues to come up for me which are very much unresolved.

I've come across this website; www.themeinside.com which allows adults who'd been affected by adoption to come together and talk to each other about their experiences. It's amazing how even just talking to a few of them, I already feel a little better about my situation.

Hopefully something good will come of this, and also from me becoming an adoption champion - that I've signed up to be. There are 4000 children in the UK who need to be adopted; and if I can spread the news so just one of them is then that's amazing.

I had an amazing talk with Katherine tonight, that started in French and ended in English after having a very serious conversation. It was beautiful ♥

Stronger Than I Thought

I'm finally talking to one of my best friends and surprisingly it doesn't hurt as much as I thought it would. I expected to be really homesick and missing them both and naturally, being an over sentimental fool as I am, for it to make me cry. It isn't getting to me like I thought it would though. So this is a good step forward. I'm really loving it here, and making some nice friends :)



Ciao for now! x

Letter and Picture

Before I left for Spain on my Year Abroad, I had a letter waiting for me, from my newly found younger brother. It made me smile a lot, and now I know what he looks like. 

That's all :)
