It hasn't quite sunk in yet, even typing it feels slightly surreal.
I keep catching my self thinking 'I'm actually living in a house now, an actual house.'
I moved in on Saturday the 18th of September and spent pretty much all day unpacking. I've managed to turn my room into something quite 'homey' it doesn't feel so much like 'the room i'm staying in' but more like 'my room.'
I'm living with 5 other house mates, 3 guys and 2 other girls, although the girls are only here until Christmas, they're transfer students from America, they've got two other friends who are always around in the house which makes the house even nicer and funnier to live in, although as they were here a week before we were and they're all from the same school they're a pretty close knit group.
However, overall we all get along and I love living here.
There was a slight bought of home sickness somewhere on the third and fourth day, but nothing that wasn't cured with a few phone calls and a cup of tea :)
I'm living in a 'student village' about a half an hour walk from the University, admittedly it was my last choice for accommodation but I wouldn't change it for anything now, I love the atmosphere here and the way it actually feels like we're students, living away from home, in our own houses and completely responsible. =D
Freshers week has been pretty good too, although I didn't go to all the events, the ones I did were pretty good, everyone was drinking and having a laugh, I bumped into a few people from college which made things seem a little bit more familiar. A long side that I've also had introductory lectures and found people living next door who are also doing the same psychology course as I am.
After this weekend the 'real stuff' starts, and it's already looking to be a challenge, however, there wouldn't be much point in a degree if it wasn't.
