A Year Since I Graduated...

A video I made with recordings from my last week of school.

I'm finding it very hard to believe that it's been a year since I graduated from high school. It's gone so fast. I remember that this time last year I didn't even know anything about what I was going to do after school. 2011 was still a huge question mark for me! That scared me. I hated that. Although I love surprises, it's not a nice feeling waking up with absolutely no plans for the future. I definitely knew that I wanted to have a gap year in Denmark but I hadn't bought any tickets or looked into it seriously so that was still only a slight possibility. The tickets weren't bought until 2 weeks before I left!

"I wonder where I'll be this time next year?" was a question I remember thinking clearly, with great excitement. Would I still be in Bundaberg, would I go down to Brisbane, or would I travel to Denmark? 

Little did I know then that now I'd be living in Denmark and experience so much this year- and that I've already begun studying again- just in Danish!

Looking back at the video I made about my last week of school makes me think how incredibly different my life has changed. To think that my friends were all around me and now they're scattered all over Australia, and I'm up here on the other side of the planet! I took school for granted, and just the  simple fact that I could be with my friends everyday was something I didn't properly think about. The temperature was 30+ and just chilling out under D block and laughing non stop was how things used to be. Now all that is over a year old! But even though it's a year ago today, nothing whatsoever will take my memories away from all the great times we had together. Well maybe dementia :P But seriously, although the times are gone now, I will cherish every memory and I'm so pleased that I made this video. It's like a time-capsule where it shows exactly the way we were.
