Surviving University

University is not all it's cracked up to be. It's stressful and full of apprehension. My main goal is to survive and do well and graduate with a degree. The other things are just secondary.

I know why they say University life is lonely and it's true that you won't have deep friendships. Everyone is rushing to their own classes and lectures and to put in unkind term, for self benefits. It's almost like "making use" of people for that one module.

Oh well, my main concern is whether I can survive these uncharted waters that is the first semester. It's crucial to do well because it will give me the confidence I need to endure the next 5 semesters. On the other hand, it will crush me if I fail to do well and meet my expectations.

I'm not even thinking honours right now because it all depends on how I do and how well I can adjust to University life. I'll cross the bridge when the time comes.
