So my first year at univeristy has somehow come to an end which is crazy to think!! This year has completely flown by, but as every adult keeps reminding me “it only get quicker, the older you get”, which is becoming scarily true.
Looking back on my first yer a anything uni, it has been a whirlwind to say the least. The start was all drinking and partying with a moderate amount of work; the second term a combination of more drinking with a heavier workload and on to the final term which has been an even stronger focus on work.
The whole experience has been truly amazing and I have learnt a lot both academically and life-wise. In January of this year my whole life changed, alot happened in my personal life resulting in a loss of friendship and relationship, which was heartbreaking but keeping in mind that everything happens for a reason made this easier.
I fell into a mini dark hole that I was scared I wouldn’t get out of but with positive people surrounding me who constantly reminded me not to let this one event ruin me as I have a e life of me. I stood tall and let go of nearly everything holding me back (this is still an ongoing process)! For this, I am so thankful for the people in my life right now.
Looking at today and how far I’ve come in just 5 months is amazing to say the least and I am incredibly motivated to focus on me and not make the mistakes I have made in the past.
I have lots of plans for the coming summer as well as next year to truly make the most of every opportunity I am given and simply star enjoying life a little more.
Until next time
