omie jay internet stranger dont call me that it sounds so lame

i can safely say i am no longer looking forward to the 1st of march

 

[Omie Jay]

haha

i was really looking forward to starting uni.
the fact that i met 2 good friends from highschool in my very first lecture meant that any nervousness during first day was GONE

but yea, i was nervous at first, but excited too.

see you got lucky
since i live out west and all, most people in my grade arent even going to uni, then heaps are going to UWS, only a couple going to USYD, none of which are doing my degree. so im gonna be a massive loner

although, i do know one person whose probably gonna do a B Science with a pharmacology major, which will also be a part of my double degree (bayan92 of this website lol) so i guess thats a plus? although i dnt know him that well?

and thats only IF he doesnt get into pharm (which i think he will)

 

[Omie Jay]

then meet new people!

say hi to a random person next to you, talk about what degree you're doing and stuff (DONT talk about your atar, thats lame).

it wouldnt be too hard for YOU to make friends at uni, i reckon

lol i wouldnt bet on that. people will probably just think im a big weirdo or something

 

[Omie Jay]

psht.
everyone's in the same boat as you.

 

[meilz92]

yayayayayay then we will all b weirdos together

 

[philphie]

changed my mind, don't talk to me Amelia, you will cramp my style and stop me from getting in with the cool kids

 

[Omie Jay]

sif SHE isnt a cool kid?

be her friend and everyone'll think ur cool.

 

[Casmira]

lolz average uai for my high school was like 40 uai, i think me and like 2-3 others where the only ones that made it to unsw/usyd

so did you make some new good friends? adapt to the work?

Work was easy to adapt to, I still think HSC is harder. But I am still a bit behind in making friends. A common problem you might notice in the forum re uni social life is the "lots of acquaintance, not enough friends" syndrome, and that's sort of what I am experiencing.

One thing I regret not doing and I strongly encourage you to do is going to O-week. That is the best time and place to make new friends.

i know this is a UNSW thread, but the following seminar by USYD is quite comforting and soothing to any new undergrad for 2010

YouTube - Parents' Seminar at the University of Sydney part 1
