Guest Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Cheers, similar constraints on my life too at the minute. Oh well, there is always the olympics ([size=1]and wine[size=3])[/size][/size] Indeed what would we do without the Olympics? 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' /> I don't drink wine so I shall substitute that for coca cola 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uttoxram75 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 No problems like sorting out finance with a new bank account, training to use new equipment which I have been given, practicing my organisation, sorting out where I shall live at University and trying to get a job at wherever I shall be living 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> oh dear, wait till daveo sees how hard done to students are...

It effects people in different ways, I am by no means depressive but I enjoy a drink- rather too much actually, but I am a happy drunk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think I will end up going into post grad as I do love education and learning. I do worry if I possess the intellectual ability to do it though.

I wish I was a healthier in my habit- there are defiite benefits to being clean living- unfortunately you will become a taxi service for your mates! I like a drink but have never smoked or taken drugs, which is lucky because I have a very addictive personality!

I am sure that you will do well mate, just keep your head down. Avoiding alcohol is a great start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I am going to study sociology but if I get into Lancaster I can take two minors and change my major in my second year which I would change to Politics as I do love that. That is what my mum has said, that with enough endeavor people can achieve amazing things which otherwise they wouldn't have been capable of.

I hope you stick to the sensible range thing when the freshers week starts! Even at my age (old) I sometimes don't have the good sense to stop when I know I am completely drunk!

With your mind I have no doubts you will. Let everybody round you get pi55ed or stoned, it's them who''ll look and feel like the floor of a taxi after a Friday night the next morning and gradually turn into pi55heads. Don't give a second thought to what others think and do, just stay you and you'll be fine.

I do struggle with originality though and I am self conscious about my capacity to think and all to often the lack of that ability is all too present.

ladyram Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Blimey Yr, If you're bothered about your capacity to think, there's plenty more who should worry far more than what you do! Bloody hell, I've said to you before, you'll go far you will. You're one of the cleverest people I know so just go and do whatever it is you want to because I have no doubts you'll be a success. If your concerns really do bother you, talk to your lecturers and course leaders at uni, they're there to help however they can, so take advantage of that and use them whenever you need to. Don't worry about plonking any baggage you've got on their desk, they'll see you right, you'll see.
