It’s 20 minutes before midnight and I’m in the car with my parents having left a family friend’s house—we haven’t seen her in many months since she lives in America. As soon as we get in the car, dad asks whether McDonald’s is open. I laugh, because I was thinking the same thing. We are now outside the McDonald’s drive-through, ready to stuff our faces with burgers and fries.

Tomorrow, I have to go to my new college to enroll: I’m slightly nervous but also excited. I don’t think I’ve actually mentioned this before but I left my high school and I’m about to start attending an arts college where I’ll study creative media. I shall keep you up to date on what happens on my first day. ♦
