I’m not going back to university. I have people left, right and centre hinting that I’m making a huge mistake, that a term isn’t enough of a chance to give it. I don’t know. There were several issues. I’m sad it didn’t work out and won’t pretend that it was all bad. There were good times and there are things I’ll miss, but the past three months I’ve been predominantly miserable. I lost interest in everything that had motivated me to do well at school, I honestly wondered if I was verging on depression. Making the decision to drop out was like a huge cloud passing, a huge weight off my shoulders. However, I’m not giving up this goal, just taking a different approach. I’m going to do an Open University course in modern languages and hope it works out this time.
