To little me
So you are all set and ready to enter the big world of university. This experience can be a very exciting one if you turn it into a journey. Here is something for you to think about, something I have found out for myself.
Homesickness and the nervousness is a natural stage, but one that is quite easily overcome when in university and this is helped by the amazing creatures that we call friends Without them your time could be lonely, sad and tough, trust me, I’ve been through it. I remember always saying that I will forever have my high school friends and will always keep in contact with them but the friends you make at university are different. These friends eventually become your family because you are living with them and you spend most of your time with them. They are a very important asset in your journey so keep them close to you. They will be there for you whenever you need a shoulder to cry on, a face to smile with, a joke to laugh at and an ear to listen. They will also be the friends with whom you enter the big world and you will find yourself sharing everything together. This bond, however, does not snap into place as you walk through the door. It takes time to find the special ones and you will find them in your res, in lectures, and maybe even at the Rat and Parrot during that usual R10 draft. You will come to know that these friends are also there to look out for wherever you may be. It is always good to have someone you trust with you to make sure you get home safely and who always knows where you are so if you need to you have someone to call, no matter the time, they will be on standby for you. They also seem to help when your alarm clock doesn’t go off, as we all know that happens. So look after them, treat them well, and always cherish them.
You are going to love it here, and always remember, you can never have too many friends.
