There is Time to Kill Today

The Long awaited University Blog post

Finally, I’ve been meaning to do a post about university ever since I moved in. However I have never got round to it. So let’s start. Right so I moved in on the 17th of September if I remember correctly, all I remember is that I was bricking it for the whole day. I was the last of my flatmates to move in so I kind of felt more nervous in that respect.  I met three of my flatmates straight away, Chrissie as she was eating in the kitchen, Georgie when she came into the kitchen as I was unpacking my food and Chris when he invited me down to flat 1 for a some more meeting people and whatnot. This first night was good in the sense that it calmed my nerves and made me at ease. Later on I met Matt, so I’ve pretty much met all my flatmates at this stage. I later met Simone the next day. So all 6 flatmates. I’ll just say a little bit about them all

Matt: The guy is a legend, through him I’ve met some really cool people, plus on a night out it’s always fun when he’s out. Completely different to me in a lot of ways but the guy is ‘all over it’

Chris: Chris was the first flatmate I actually saw, I met him on facebook. Chris is a really chill guy, he was the one who fist integrated me in meeting other people on the first night, so I thank him for that. He’s also the person I most in the flat.

Chrissie: Chrissie is a fun person to be around, she could talk for england. Nice girl, but kind of odd sometimes, but hey, it’s not my business what other people do

Georgie: Georgie was one of the first flatmates I found on facebook, very nice girl, friendly easy to chat to. Perhaps at times she can be a bit quiet, but it’s no biggie. Georgie has found a group of mates very quickly and that’s fair enough.

Simone: Simone was the last flatmate I met, I rarely see her, she is very busy. But she’s very nice and easy to chat with.

And as for myself, I think my flatmates think I’m very strange, a lot of my habits and the things I do are really things people are familiar with. Oh well, I’m not gonna change just cos lot’s of people think I’m strange.

Right, moving on from the flatmates. I have if course met lot’s of other people. The great thing about my accommodation is that it’s very sociable when you know people and you get to know more people.

My Course, well let’s just say my course didn’t get off to the best start, mine started two weeks after everyone else’s, it’s a very hands on practical course, I do feel like this first semester we are not really being pushed a great deal. But their you go. I have really bonded with some people on my course, some really really chill people. Particularly, three guys called Tom, Mike & James, great banter.

Uni life in general, I have amazed myself at how easy I blended into the whole Uni lifestyle, It certainly was the right time for me to go. I have become more confident in everything, females are taking a liking to me, I for one am shocked at this. I’m becoming more independent each day I’n here, lot’s of people see uni as a wast of time but putting the course your doing aside, uni is great life skills teacher.

I’ll finish, I’m amazed that it’s nearly November, it will be Christmas soon and the first semester will soon be over. But so far University has been brilliant, long may it continue this way
