University

Moving, registration and day 1

I realised that moving is a lot harder than anyone who has never moved thinks....but not in the way you think. The only part I found hard was the practical side of packing up your life and possessions and physically moving them to your next destination. As the time was getting closer, all I had packed was shoes and films (I had my priorities right!!!!!)... but slowly bits came together and now I'm here, all settled in and having a fab time.

Registration was a bit manic with people everywhere, but to be fair to our uni, it is rather organised when it came to it!

Meeting people in person and putting physical faces to online photos was probably the best part of registration day. Everyone I met and am living with are fab. They're no different to how they convey themselves online. We'll all in the same position and have been looking out for each other: fab group of girls! Some photos from our night out of a few of them.....

The union is great and I finally got to meet Shakey for the first time after watching some impressive(ly bad moves) at the union last night!!! Running for Raising and Giving (RAG) officer  is a go! Also, hoping there's a good chance of being able to help with the Night Scheme too.

Night scheme is hoping to be set up in the Carmarthen campus this year and will be a service for those who need a non-judgemental, listening ear during the early hours of the morning when there's no one around.

So excited about everything at uni at the moment... Getting involved is definitely the best way forward! #Happy (I don't care if it's no acceptable to hash tag in blogs...get over it!)

Quick word of advice for future uni students... getting involved is a great way to meet people and gives you something to talk about!! Living at university is more than just gaining a degree by completing a course.... It's far less scary than people think as long as you're friendly, make an effort and keep an open mind.


My room is faaaaab. Huge and I have the best views. Want to keep it for the 3 years..... despite there being so many steps to get up to the top floor :( (I will count them one day!)

 

 

Things to do today: Catch up what's been happening at MiLO, go for food (can't wait! I'm hungry), games night at the Christian Union and then a film night. Woo!

 

 

 

And at last, some photos of the uni!
