So, its a been a week and 3 days since i left the sunny region that is Wiltshire and so far the best way to describe my experience comes, like most things, from spaced.
"Its ups and downs Its ups and downs Its ups and downs Its ups and downs Its ups and downs Its ups and downs Its ups and downs"
4 weeks later (8th Nov) "Its ups and downs its ups and downs..." Though lately significantly more up. This blog may literally have taken the longest time of anything i have ever written.
So i guess i should talk about university for a bit, as you probably i know university screwed me over accommodation wise and i am currently living off campus with a bunch of post grads who i only experience brief chats with whilst cooking dinner and slightly more annoying social interactions at 4am through the medium of drum and bass when i have 9am lectures.
The main disadvantage is not getting a bus or trying to get home after a night out only to find that the last bus on Saturday was 2hrs ago. No the real problem comes from a lack of a kitchen. It is possible to make friends on your course and there are several people i would consider friends (well as much as you can in 6 weeks) but there always comes the point when everyone heads back to there halls and your left killing time or waiting for buses. This paragraph wasn't meant to be negative, its really not. I excepted these issues a while ago. And to be honest, i have never been that much of a party-er anyway so im not missing out hugely.
Right positive time, I picked up a new hobby. Originally, my plan was to start taking rugby a bit more seriously, but I basically gave this up when i saw the ridiculous training schedule and even more crazy tales of there socials. So in a brief moment of insanity/desire not to pay for gym membership i joined the rowing club.
Craziness yes, but tbh its pretty cool to do a sport Great Britain actually wins consistently at. Trainings not been too bad either, i know im starting from a fitness level of approximately zero but i now finally realise why people get addicted to exercise. Adrenalin is a fun drug.
Work wise, what i have learned is that you learn more in one tutorial than an entire three week lecture course.
Cutting this short because i really cant leave this post for another month and doing washing up after 2300 seems freakish to me.
