I remember that feeling (albeit a long time ago) when you knew you were going back to University after a lovely long summer break, working, holidaying and eating parents out of house n home.\u00a0 I was so excited to see all my friends and living in my new student home. However I was always concerned that I may have lost my ability to study somewhere along the way!<\/p>\n
So I thought I would share my top 5 reasons why it\u2019s great to come back\u2026.<\/p>\n
1)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It\u2019s a new academic year\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..a fresh start\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026time to get the grades that you know you are capable of, especially if you felt you fell short last year. We all love new beginnings.<\/p>\n
2)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Another year closer to achieving your goals, aside from the social life, it is why we all go\u2026..to achieve!!<\/p>\n
3)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Catching up with people you have not seen all summer, including those that you do not talk very often; the person who serves your coffee, the familiar face in lectures that you only say hi to. It feels like coming back to another family.<\/p>\n
4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The self-achievement you only feel when you have handed in an assignment you\u2019ve stayed up late to complete or passed an exam that you have studied so hard for.<\/p>\n
5)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The busy hub on campus at beginning of a new academic year, all the Fairs, Stalls, student union activities and people!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
