      I really wish I was! But I’m only in my second year of my apprenticeship which is like doing the low end of a University degree. Once I finish this year, I will be doing a HNC which is like the apprenticeship version of a University degree:D But I was very fortunate to end up where I am! It was a big leap in life though! I had to move out from my mums’ house when I was 16 and move into a room share and learn how to do life tings basically! But because my company pays for my education, I am very lucky to be able to pay for rent, food and it’s also been able to allow me to pay for driving lessons and I am now driving!:D But overall, my company had a lot of hope in me and wanted me to take this opportunity and I jumped at the chance and this is how I’m here in this point of my life!
