Dear Diary #4

Dear Diary,Again, my absence on my blog has been noted and I'm really sorry I've left it this long. I feel like a little part of me is missing as I'm normally on my blog at all hours of the day but University life really has taken over and although I am beginning to settle in, I still have moments where the whole thing feels very surreal - almost holiday like in fact, where I'm expecting to be whisked back home at any given moment.I really appreciate (and I mean really appreciate) everyone's kind words, advice and support in my previous entries. It's an understatement to say that they have helped me enormously and if I had a little 'low' moment I'd just read over them. So thank you! It's really lovely to know that you care and that you respect my honesty!The past month has been a real blur of lectures (which yes, have been overwhelming), learning shorthand (is anyone else doing this too?), clubs and fancy dress outfits and although I doubt it will ever really feel like home, it's not as alien as I first felt it to be. I had a slight panic a week ago when I realized how few vegetables I was eating and if I might shrivel up and become terribly ill as a result. A packet of spinach and a floret of broccoli later, I felt a little more reassured.Is anyone else in their first term of Uni too? I'd love to know how you're finding it!Love Scarlett x
