    Welcome to the community @keepdatsmile it's lovely to have you here. Wishing you all the best with your new start at university! Keep us updated with how it's going and remember we're all here to chat anytime :)
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Hello @keepdatsmile, welcome to the boards! I hope your first day at uni goes great! I remember how scared I was when I first started, and I'm sure others are nervous about starting too, so you're not alone with this feeling. I'm sure everything will turn out okay for you!

    Hope you're having a lovely day <3

    Hi @keepdatsmile - welcome to The Mix, it’s great to have you here!

    I hope your first day went well - I remember my first day (I’m in my third year now), and I was so nervous too, but I can safely say that I had nothing to worry about. In my personal experience, the work has been enjoyable and meeting new people has been lovely - I hope that you find this too🩷

    Good luck with your university experience, I look forward to seeing you around!
    Keep fighting the good fight!
