I am so far enjoying my first year of university, spending time with friends and learning about the brain. So far student life has treated me well, and I have enjoyed living in a flat with other students.I love to read and get incredibly fixated on specific topics for a couple of weeks and to then go and completely forget them three months later. My latest fixation has been on North Korea random! If all goes well, I will start driving lessons within the next couple of years to further increase by independence.Im excited for the help you will provide in letting me access the social life of university. This includes joining societies, attending social events and seeing friends. Similar to when I am in lectures, I will not need you to be there with me, but close by in case I need anything.Having portable hobbies you can enjoy when Im busy with friends or studying is essential!Having grown up in a rural village, I am enjoying exploring the city of Manchester at the weekend with friends.
