University Problems

Hi Guys,

I've been thinking for a long time that I really ought to start a blog. I've had a lot to deal with this past year - well, maybe not compared to some people, but for me anyway.
I started at the University of Lincoln on the 16th September 2012 and I was really excited and thought "great, this is the beginning of my life" and I couldn't wait to get to my accommodation and start. 
However, when I got to the University, I realised after a week or so that I really didn't like my flat and the people there as they were very quiet and I felt very lonely and homesick. I spent everyday on the phone to my friends and family but nothing helped. I decided to take matters into my own hands and applied to change flats and I ended up sharing with some of the best people I have ever met. Anyway, so we had a lot of fun for two weeks but then I developed an ear infection and ended up with tinnitus. I had also realised that the course wasn't quite right and everything went wrong so I left. 

I've been struggling a lot but fortunately I met my wonderful boyfriend Joey and he's helped me get through everything. 

I took a course in media make-up and was looking to go to University again this year to study but I realised this too late and have missed the opportunity this year as all make-up courses were full and over-subscribed. 
I now don't really know what I'm going to do or how I'm going to do it and I get a lot of doubts in my mind and to be honest I'm still not 100% sure - but I decided to write this blog in order to vent as my friends and family are basically sick of hearing it! 
I hope this will help anyone who is in the same situation and I feel like it's nice for others to know they aren't alone. If anyone is going through this or have been I would love to hear from you. 


This is a very serious blog for my first ever one - but we have to start somewhere!!!


Thanks for reading,
