It's been a long time since my last post but things have been so busy, such is the life of a student. Just kidding, all I have is time.
Since being at uni I have discovered many things about myself. Firstly everywhere I go I will receive a new name, and am now used to everyday use of Marlene. Thanks guys? Secondly I will ALWAYS have the piss taken out of me, because supposedly I am a biter. Chomp Chomp. People like that apparently? Lastly, I have discovered I cannot be alone for an extended period of time. I am in constant need of company, and find myself getting incredibly restless when sitting in my room alone for more than five minutes.
Its been an enlightening time! I've been here just over two months now and it has all been incredible so far. The people I have met are all the most amazing people and I find it so difficult to think about not seeing any of them for over three weeks during Christmas! When you go from constant, 24/7 contact, to nothing, how do you deal with that? I love them all so much, but I am definitely ready to go home. It's hard being surrounded by English people who can all just jump on a train or drive home for the weekend. Makes being away from home much more difficult and many a times have I felt an uncontrollable need to hug my mummy and daddy, and jump on my little sister. I miss them so much! At least I have my older sister here to look after me whenever I need her, only 30 minutes train ride away :D
These past weeks have been filled with movie nights, essay writing, presentations and parties. Everything you could expect of university I suppose. Only two weeks now until the semester is over though, where has the time gone? And to think, only two months ago I was so afraid of what awaited me. There was no need to be afraid. Its everything I could have ever wanted.
