celebrations...

If I could jump up and down and punch the air, I would. Really happy, just got a letter pushed through the door from the academy saying that after "careful reconsideration" yadda yadda, I got the place on the training scheme!! I'm so pleased, and so is my Dad, he wouldn't stop going on about how we're going to celebrate, even if his perception of Corey Jenson has changed [I quote].
I know it's down to my playing etc that got me the place but it's also pretty much down to Lilly for getting them to change their mind/go with their original decision/etc. I'm really chuffed.

So Dad's planned a small gathering tomorrow night back home to celebrate, so I'm gonna try and arrange a lift and get some of the guys down, it should be pretty good. I'm trying to pluck up the courage to go and ask Lilly, but I'm gonna hate it if she says no.
