The Next Big Step...Uni.

Hi,

So I've been gone for pretty much three months now but I promise it was all for a good reason, I got into my first choice of university, Sheffield Hallam University to study Public Relations, yipee!

Although A levels were incredibly hard and caused a lot of stress, myself and my friends all achieved good grades and are now starting university all over the country. As I live in Newcastle and got into Sheffield Hallam, I had to move out and straight into student accommodation. I moved in over the weekend after a teary goodbye to my family home, here's a little snap...

Once I arrived in Sheffield I set up my belongings in my little room and made myself feel a little more at home, here is a couple of pictures for those of you who are as nosy as me.

                             

                                               

                                     

I'm sorry the pictures are not the greatest of quality as I left my bridge camera at home so had to use my iPhone. I start my course on Monday alongside Freshers, bring in the alcohol!

Have any of you started university or moved out into student accommodation, how is it? Let me know any tips or recommendations you have, I'd love to hear it.

For now,

Stress City!!

Hi!

How are you all? It's been a while and I'm starting to feel like all I ever do is work.

We all know what it's like when the daily grind is just too much and we just want to poke out our hands and jump on the nearest bus to relaxation, but at the minute I just can't seem to relax or take my mind off work.
I'm currently writing this post whilst procrastinating with some A-Level revision which has been playing on my mind. I allowed myself a week off last week to travel, explore and socialize but every night before I fell asleep I'm faced with:

"I have so much work to do!"

"I'm going to fail my exams!"

"Am I a bad student? Should I quit whilst I'm ahead?"

"Will I ever get into my dream job?"

It's taken it's toll and I'm starting to lose sleep and quite frankly, the will to live. I know it's the typical student stress that hits us all but I just can't seem to take my mind of it. 

Thank you for reading my ramble, If you have an suggestions to what I can do to just kick back and forget about studying for 5 minutes then please let me know and I will happily take them under my wing. Do you ever find yourself stressed beyond belief? How do you deal with it?

Until next time,

Love,

Chanel
