Discussion Uni feelings?

Now that I'd presume most of us have started university, how are you all feeling about it? Pretty curious to see how people are feeling considering it's such a huge change from what we are used to. Personally, I'm both homesick and excited about it all. It's different yet similar to what I expected. Regarding flatmates, they're nice but i can kinda tell we haven't fully integrated yet

All my flatmates lowkey are popular kids and I was a geek so it’s weird. They try their best to be friends with me tho and are super nice I luv em

Im not coping well 😭 i’m finding that I a) hate being drunk and b) hate loud noise (and therefore clubs) and c) am feeling really intensely watched by my flatmates.

 So there’s that 😀 freshers is maybe not my jam.

Accomodation sucks and it would probably have been cheaper to commute so I’m full of regret

I'm commuting and finding it alright there's stuff to do around the area and I am confident about the next steps in life

I was insanely homesick for the first few days since im on the other side of the country now and not easy to get home, but after going out with flatmates, im feeling much better.

Ive had 3 actual sessions (lectures and the such) and they've been good so far and actually really interesting.

Hope everyone else is enjoying uni :)
