Well yesterday I moved down to University. The weather was (and still is) absolutely shocking, so moving everything into my room was interesting. My clothes were soaked as were a lot of my things.
I'm finding it rather difficult really, in terms of meeting people. It seems as though everyone already knows each other, they can talk easily and have a laugh and stuff. But I can't join in, I try to have a conversation with someone but it just goes badly and turns out really awkward. I guess I'm just completely out of my comfort zone, I don't know anyone yet. And it looks like the easiest way to get to know people is to go to the parties in the evening and get drunk. But the trouble is I'm not a big drinker, and I'm not that good socially in a large group of people, and it also turns out that I'm not that good socially in smaller groups. Even though I thought I was.
And today I've got nothing on as my course induction doesn't start till tomorrow, but everyone else's starts today. So they are all off doing something, and I'm just sat in my room. I would go out and do something if it wasn't for the torrential, non-stop rain.
I'm home sick, miss my girlfriend, my friends and family, I don't know anyone and I'm finding it really hard to change that. These next few weeks are going to be pretty tough. But I will persevere, hopefully when my seminars and lectures start I will get to know people on my course fairly quickly.
