New Kid in Town

Well I've been in Britain for a week already and it sure has been a lot more challenging than I anticipated. Being a postgrad and living quite a distance off campus means I am definitely left to sort out problems myself. So far, I feel as though I'm all alone and stumbling in the dark. The first day in particular was extremely frustrating. I'm sure it will build character and a stronger sense of independence in the long run, right? I can't wait until I start to see some familiar faces and get into some kind of routine.

Speaking of which, I start my first day of my program tomorrow. It's been nearly 2 years since I first stumbled upon the Nutrition, Obesity, and Health masters program at Leeds, fantasized about it and then thought, "why not?". Part of me still can't believe I'm here, and the other much larger part of me can't get started soon enough.

I guess it can only go up from here. Wish me luck!
