So, tomorrow, I start uni. Well, technically Freshers, but I still have to start meeting people and making friends, and I'm TERRIFIED. I am NOT this old already, I can't be?! Don't get me wrong, this is, like, all my dreams come true considering how I've wanted to be a teacher since I was seven, but there's something about the looming inevitability of it that makes me doubt every aspect of my being (wondering if this is at all relatable, or if it's just me). At least one of my friends is doing the course, so I'm not quite alone in this blind panic and confusion.
This is how I think people at uni will probably end up seeing me (tbh, I can understand why if they do haha):
So here's my plan of action:
- Join the CU and go to as many of their Freshers events as possible (yes, I'm a Christian, commence the hate comments haha)
- Try to still be myself, and hope that people like me for who I am (cheesy, yeah, but it's a piece of advice my friend gave me and showed me that it was important)
- Keep BREATHING.
In a few weeks' time I'll probably laugh at how scared I am now, I'll realise it was stupid.. I hope at least.
But, for now, no matter how daunting life seems, I'll keep smiling, because, really, that's all I can do :)
Love, Emily x
Yay, other people are writing blogs again :D
ReplyDeleteHope tomorrow (well, today) goes good and you meet lots of lovely people (don't replace us with your cool uni friends :c)
But keep breathing and keep smiling seems like a pretty good plan of action, one that I'm applying to my time at uni for, like you say, it's all your really can do :)
Keep up the bloggin',
much love
