Semester 1 has almost come to an end… and breathe.
Wow.
As a first year I am experiencing living away from home for
the first time and truth be told, of course, I regularly get homesick like most
other first years.
In many cases I find myself missing my home town, though not
even knowing it until someone asks if I’m okay which then actually gets me
thinking about my family and friends. This then makes myself feel lonely which
can lead to a lack of motivation for my studies… NOT good.
So…
Luckily I live in a flat with 8 others so most of the time I
am surrounded by people which stops me thinking about how much I'd love to go back. I try keep myself busy, doing work, house chores...blogging.
Also the change of weather from a warm Autumn breeze to a sudden bitterly wind is a no from me. I feel like hibernating.. which is pretty much what I've done today. I've been in my room working and feeling sorry for myself :').
This first semester is going extremely quick, however, the positive of only having a month worth left of lectures for this year is that we have just over a months worth of holiday. Starting up again in February... A well needed rest. Although I do have hand ins for the beginning of January so I'll most likely drive back up to Cambridge for the day and the be back for the rest of January... Bonus of being able to drive!
Now, back to studying I guess..
