One week to go....

So today I'm having a BBQ with everyone as a sort of "farewell" get together. I can't believe where the time has gone! It seems like yesterday I was at Birmingham airport feeling so nervous upset and worried about going and now I'm here i don't want to leave! I've had ups and downs here not going to lie...and times have been hard but now I finally feel settled it's almost time to go home!

I remember when Jamie and I were counting down and he said to me "15 weeks is ages away" I knew he was right and it did seen like a life time away until I'd get to see him though. I remember Christie telling me not to wish it all away as it will go so quick and she was right! It has!

I literally could scream with excitement for how much I'm looking forward to seeing Jamie. We have done so well to come this far and I'm incredibly proud to call him my boyfriend- he's been so supportive since day one and coming across the other side of the world to see me proves to me how much he loves me :) I know we have both found it hard but equally I really do believe this has made us stronger as a couple. We've both learned we can trust one another one million percent- something I've always wanted with a boyfriend! I trust him with my life and this whole experience has made me see just how much I love him. Mum always said "I'd just know" when I've found "the one"- mum I now know what you meant all that time you kept saying it to me!

So I'd imagine today's BBQ is going to be emotional- obviously I'm seeing Christie and Gary before I go and Kathryn and Sean but as for Laura and Chris and Sophie and Pete it will probably be the last time I see them which is quite sad! :-(

I love having bbqs in the sun though- it makes me so happy! I wish we could do this all the time instead of going out to pubs and clubs it's so boring! Being outside on the beach bbqs and beers is so much nicer! :-)

Anyway...will try to do another entry before Jamie arrives! My goodness I am going to be SO nervous to see him! I get butterflies even thinking about it! :-D
