Amanda has finally reached BCM

I arrived at BCM on Monday, 4th Feb with my parents, who drove a van full of all my stuff.

I am in Unit 4 at the college - a cosy 2 bedroom unit.

We unpacked and set up late Monday afternoon and all day Tuesday.

My parents left early Wednesday morning and I finally completed my set up.

It's been a little strange sitting in my unit thinking about where I was last week and where I am now.

I have had a few moments of feeling a little homesick, especially when it was real cold on Tuesday, but I am still very excited about this year.

Kylie came over for a cuppa on Wednesday morning so it was good to catch up with her and I briefly saw Karen on Wednesday morning as well.

I went & had a cuppa with Philippa (a fellow cadet) this morning and we also went for a walk down to Trentham primary school together.

Dale (a fellow single cadet) came over this afternoon to catch up and I got to meet my neighbour, Rochelle (another fellow single cadet) as well.

BCM staff and fellow cadets have been very welcoming so it's been great so far.

I will keep you all posted...
