Hello spring!

I hate losing an hour of sleep but today it didn't bother me so much because I had to be up at a ridiculous time on a Sunday for another driving lesson. After a crazy lesson on Friday which left my poor instructor joining the small group of people who have witnessed my bad moods, but this is my current 'worst mood ever.' In my defence Manchester really is a bitch to learn to drive in with rude people, pedestrians who literally don't give a crap that, fair enough I'm going REALLY slow but at any second my foot could slip (again) and I could go fast right into them. I'm joking, I'm not that bad, well almost not anyway.

I'm very happy it's spring mostly because other than few hiccups this week, like a bad driving lesson and people seeming to forget my name and replacing it with not such a cool alternative, it's been the best in a long, long time. I got accepted onto a PGCE course, which is really scary because I don't feel totally mature enough to be in the charge of 30 kids in my classroom but that's a year away at least so plenty of time to grow up. Before finding out I'd got on I was stressing so much, as a couple of people in particular know only too well, but it's a scary thought not knowing what the hell you'll do if you're not successful. I guess now I'll never really know and I am very lucky and grateful.

My housemate passed her driving theory this week so it's a flat of good things. I definitely want to make the most of the last five months of relative freedom before my career really starts next year, I really hope to have passed my driving test by then, but I also think when you have very little spacial awareness that could be asking too much. But anyway it's finally sunny in Manchester so better enjoy it before it starts to cry again!!!
