My First weekend at Farleigh!

It has been my first weekend at Fabulous Farleigh!

On Friday, I was starting to feel nervous as Dad put on 'Driving Away from home'. The rapper said 'We'll close the door'. We did. Then he said, 'Just put your foot down....' Dad slowly  put his foot down and we went for a ride in the dudey!

As we were coming into Frome I felt very nervous and I didn't fancy listening to any more songs on my Farleigh playlist.

We got up to my new residence. I didn't feel like getting out the Dudey first but Louise who is my house leader been talking to me whilst Mum and Dad were setting up my room.

I had my nice ham sandwiches and I went to Wilshire College to enrol. That was easy. I just had to share my GCSE results with them and sign a few sheets and take a photograph. What was exciting that Wilshire College moved away from the 10 year old Windows XP and upgraded to Windows 7.

When I got back, my Bop It XT that Sue Read gave me, the shake it broke! Luckily they had 1 left in stock at Argos and the shake it is OK now.

After setting up my room, Mum and Dad were ready to leave. I was too frightened for them to go so Dad came down with me and I played Bop It Shout with the staff that will be looking after me here.

Whilst I was playing Bop It, Mum and Dad both left and I walked outside the entrance and there was no Dudey! I was very annoyed. I went to have my tea and then Mum and Dad rang me to say I was home.

It was my first night at Farleigh and I phoned up Mum and Dad before I went to sleep. I was tucked up in my nice goose feather duvet and at 4am Saturday morning I woke up, felt a little worried and rang my Mum and Dad up again.

They called one of the night officers and make sure I was ok. I woke up feeling all happy on Saturday morning.

On Saturday I mostly had a chill out morning and I walked around Frome with Petra.

Later on that evening she cooked my tea and she did me too much chicken. I ate all the mash up and peas and a few chicken.

This morning, I felt a little worried but I feel a lot better now.

This is just a start on my excellent adventure at Farleigh and this blog will keep you update on my time here at Fabulous Farleigh and Terrific Trowbridge.
