FRESHERS

Wow ok I am so sorry for not posting throughout freshers week as I did promise you guys. The problem was that I did not have any internet access but I have been charting my days on Word. In the next few days I will be posting a separate posts for each "freshers day" with the date next to it. I will remember to include lots of details just for you guys as I know lots of you are interested in knowing what freshers is like in uni. If i had to summarize my freshers week with one word I would say: "AMAZING". You always hear people saying that freshers is the best week of your life and you think it is totally hyped up, but it is true. Not to the point of it being the best week of your life but if you go out and socialize, put yourself out there, open up, you will have a FANTASTIC time. Don't hold back and say hi to lots of people. Everyone is in the same boat as you and everyone is looking for friends too. Look out for the upcoming posts!

Sorry again for not posting during freshers :( Please forgive me!

One more week.

Hi everyone!

Wow these last few days have been hectic. Trying to buy some final items for England, packing, looking for stuff, cleaning my room, etc. Well here's some good news: I FINALLY got the email from Ottawa that my Student Visa has been issued. I should be receiving it soon. Yay!

6 days 'til I leave.
12 days 'til Freshers.
19 days 'til start of uni.

Wowzers.

For those of you still doing/panicking about your UCAS application. Don't worry! Just make sure you put some thought into it. Don't rush. Everything will come together in the end.

Technically its also 12 days til the official start of my Freshers Blog. So hopefully everyone will look out for it as I'll try and post every day of my freshers week to keep you all in the loop!

2 More Weeks.

Hi everyone!

Yay it is finally September. If I was still in high school I should be starting school tomorrow! Yikes! Technically I still have 3 more weeks of summer holiday which is crazy as almost all my friends have already started university. I can finally start my countdown to England. I am leaving September 15 so I am really stoked....and at the same time praying that my Visa will arrive before I leave.

14 more days 'til I leave for England.
20 more days 'til Freshers Week/Intro Week.
27 more days 'til the first day of University.

I am soo excited! Anyways I just wanted to keep this blog updated so here's another quick UCAS/admissions tip:

Don't be scared to ask questions! If you're unsure about the university's requirements or have questions about their course call and ask! But obviously first check their website and prospectus before calling but other than that go ahead and call! Most of the admissions people are very friendly and helpful.
