My initial nerves went away in like 2 days, I felt so comfortable in my halls of residence and my housemates were great. I loved moving away from home (though my mum didn't

) and I only felt sad for a few hours! The nights out were really scary for me initially because I didn't go out much before uni, but it was really fun and very cheap! I love love loved the finance situation, the loans seemed ridiculously BIG considering the low paid job I had before I went to uni. I had such a great first year; it went so quickly and the academic side of things weren't that difficult (I had 3 day weeks) and a 4 day weekend. Was amazing. No fear, no worries, just enjoyed my time and I always remember it being sunny and just had so much fun with my housemates.
I miss it so much now I'm in my 4th year, it majorly sucks now.
