Now that Christmas is over and our exams are approaching, I
sat down and wondered what have I actually learnt about myself since starting University.
What have I enjoyed and what have I felt less confident about? My main concern when
starting Uni was being on my own and not making friends. I have definitely overcome
that fear. I have made lots of new friends and as a group; I think our class are
fantastic. We are all a great help to each other and we get through exam times or
meeting essay deadlines by supporting and encouraging each other. I have much more
confidence in myself now such as when doing presentations and also just generally
in myself and believing I can achieve what I want to in life. I was also concerned
with how much time I would be able to have to spend studying as I have a four year
old daughter who needs most of my attention. Luckily I have a very supportive
family who are helping me as much possible. I also worried that I wouldn’t b able
to cope with the work given but again I feel like I am coping really well and I
am really enjoying the course.
