I started University two weeks ago today yet I still feel like I'd rather be back at home.
I'm living with five other people who, as my lack of luck would have it, are all second years. So fresher's week was a bit of a pain in the arse in that respect although I did go out a few nights so I can't complain.
I think things would be a lot easier if they were first years, due to that 'everyone is in the same boat' scenario. What's more, there are only two other males; one is Chinese and can barely speak English, the other is a highly irritating camp/gay muslim. Befriending these two is not high on my agenda.
I haven't yet made any friends on my course, I'm finding it difficult as most people seem to already have made their own groups.
During the day I pretty much have no idea what to do. I sit in my room on my own, I suppose I could go to the Student Union bar on my own but...what the hell do I do after I've bought my drink?
I'm aware that I'm whinging here but ah well, I'm depressed.
Anyone else struggling/struggled when they first started?
