So today I began my journey as a university student. I had to be there at 9am, and had two lectures in a row; Writing as Communication and Approaches to Communication. I was meant to have my tutorial for Approaches in the afternoon, but it was canceled. My biggest worry was that I wouldn't have any friends, I felt like a
major loser this morning and I couldn't wait for the minutes to pass until I could get into the lecture theatre and hide behind my books. But I decided as I was waiting that I would try and meet someone, 'target the other loners' as Emma said. So I introduced myself to another female standing there, only to find out that she was a fourth year. She was absolutely lovely, she sat with me and gave me some really great advice, so I am very grateful. She left after the first lecture, and I moved over to sit next to another girl, only to discover that she was a third year. She was also really nice, but I was getting worried at this point that I wouldn't have any friends my age. Except then a lovely girl came and sat next to me, we started talking, she was a first year and had no friends too. So I made a friend. Score one for Eleanor! :)
I have another blog that I started writing over the weekend that I'll hopefully post tomorrow. I have one lecture and the accompanying tutorial tomorrow for Screen Media (a 3 hour lecture!), but apparently we watch films.
I hope all of you that are starting university this week too, have an amazing week. (:
Until next time fellow humans....
