I find it very hard to pay attention in the lectures. The tutors and lecturers are very boring. I dont like any of the subjects Im doing now, theyre nothign like I pictured. I dont like how much money everythign costs, the books and all the extra unneccessary shit. I drank the majority of a bottle of vodka last night and ended up throwing up all over the kitchen floor in a friend's appartment completely destroying a Christian Dior shirt of mine. Ive virtually no money. Oh and I do not feel like socialising. Im really hungover. Stupid fucking university. Nobody to talk to, or, well, nobody I want to talk to.

Replies RachLeigh13 Posted at 7:15 am on Sep. 10, 2008 University isn't that bad... its just a matter of finding your niche.  Most campus have a listing of on campus and off campus jobs. If you were to find a job, you'd have extra money to spend on different things. If you don't feel like socializing, that's your loss. There are plenty of people to meet and befriend from school but if you choose not to, then I personally think you're missing out. Drinking a bottle of vodka isn't the best thing to do, especially during the school week. Cheer up, I'm sure things will get better. It's only been two days! Is this your first year? Dont Notice Me Posted at 7:28 am on Sep. 9, 2008 sounds like a personal problem to me swedger Posted at 5:49 am on Sep. 9, 2008 I went to 3 lectures the whole of last year...i lived on like £40 a week...i had the time of my life. Stop worrying about things...if you find uni hard id be in no rush to get out into the real world. Chill out and enjoy the freedom Micus Posted at 5:35 am on Sep. 9, 2008 Drinking near-all of a bottle of vodka has little to do with your decision to go to Uni. I wouldn't base your college experience off of that. King Kong Posted at 5:26 am on Sep. 9, 2008 give it time. Scarlet Tears Posted at 5:13 am on Sep. 9, 2008 Isn't it a little early to come to that conclusion? Im sure there is something you will find that interests you! And as for money...Get a job or 2 see if that helps a bit. I am Xual Posted at 5:12 am on Sep. 9, 2008 Hey you drinking is not solution you are just wasting your money in vodka shit nikki Posted at 5:02 am on Sep. 9, 2008 You've been there two days. Give it time. A lot of people struggle at the beginning of university, but don't give up after two days - you'll regret it. feelinGroovy Posted at 4:58 am on Sep. 9, 2008 You cant honestly make any proper judgement after two days, dont bother buying the books, its not like you will ever read them anyhow! & education is important whether you choose to enjoy it or not. osmoticdespair Posted at 4:57 am on Sep. 9, 2008 Been there done that. It's still early days, you could always transfer to another department, or ask to sit in on modules from other topics to see if there is a subject you'd prefer. Mattie17 Posted at 4:57 am on Sep. 9, 2008 give it more time. you will get used to it Jay JWLH Posted at 4:55 am on Sep. 9, 2008 Well if you feel like it isn't something you are interested in, you can withdraw from the course, try and sell the stuff you purchased, and I guess cut your losses. Usually people like to find a part time job to do, so they can earn themselves some extra money to cover other costs like rent and food. theboxman Posted at 4:54 am on Sep. 9, 2008 maybe you have not found the subjects and classes you like yet.  I have been taking a lot of different classes to discover what I like as I was not sure if I wanted to be a photographer/graphic designer or law All 13 previous replies displayed.
