Hi Ho, It's off to uni we go!

So tomorrow is D Day. Well I say that, tomorrow is the day we set off to go to uni! Exciting times right? By now I should definitely have everything packed and sorted and things ready to arrive in force. Well guess what, as a change, I don't!

I spent this morning packing everything into bags and boxes ready to go, as well as sorting out lots of other things, including my Grandma's internet, which surprisingly was on my Jobs list. Not only that but everybody wants to say goodbye to me. I think they must all be really glad to see me leave!

So with my entire room in boxes this has left me with nothing else to do but to write a blog right? No, actually I am procrastinating because I have to photocopy some information to leave for my parents, bits of radio to find and then drop off in all sorts of places and things like that, but I thought writing a blog would mean I have to move the least far distance. Which is true to a certain extent, although it is quite a workout on one's fingers really!

One thing you never really out into the equation when you head off to uni is how much stuff there is actually to do. The thing is, you sort of think it is like moving to a new school: All you would have to do is turn up on the first day and tell someone you were there. Turns out they don't babysit you at Uni.

I have been spending lots of time filling in online forms and registering for this service and that trip to the moon, downloading this app to access my Uni email account and that app to access the pentagon. Only joking, I can't really hack into the most secure place on the internet, although it does sometimes feel like that with the amount of forms I have to fill in and passwords I have to enter. I can't just go for the traditional Password or 12345, my university IT account has to be an unrecognisable combination of letters and numbers. How do you even think of one and then not have to make a note of it? The IT department must get so many emails saying: "Let me in, I can't remember my password." Ok, we have reset it to sunshine again...

But still, while it feels like a military operation, I am quite excited to be moving into my new home for 13 weeks. For one, I have been so bored over the summer I had to tell the internet about my trip to a farm in Yorkshire (which I visited again a week ago by the way, just in case you weren't bored enough already, I will write you another little story about that). So, wish me luck and I will now set sail for Liverpool...

Topic Focus...

One of the worst things a blogger can do is start with a title. It ties you in to you subject matter and it doesn't allow you to think more freely to create a better article, which the subject of may naturally change in the first few sentences, the first few words even. But that of course is exactly what I do. Would you expect anything different?

The last post I titled a "Inspiration", in a bid to try and get my mind to think of something to write about. It ended up being another blog about me leaving for university. I looked back at recent blogs have some sort of link with me going off to university. And feedback from you guys is very positive towards blogs about student life and the progression to Uni.  

So I am making a decision, that the most productive path for my blog to follow, as well as it being the best, is about my life as a student. Following examples such as www.thestudentblogger.com I am going to talk about things which are happening for people who are looking to go to university in the future and want to find out more from a first person perspective, as well as interesting stuff and quirky little things that I am in no doubt will happen.

I thin by doing this it gives my writings some direction and some purpose as apposed to me just telling you what level I am at on Candy Crush (Still level 28 by the way)

Anyway, I hope that you enjoy the slightly revised format of the blog and I look forward to writing many more happy posts in the future!
