If you didn't already know in 2 weeks time I'm going to University. So that means in 2 weeks time I'll be moving out of my family home and moving in to Student accommodation with 5 other complete strangers that could be potential friends of mine. Now let me tell you I am absolute terrified and I'm absolutely not ready for this big step in life but when will I ever be ready? I think the best thing for me now is to just throw myself in the deep end learn how to deal with it basically. Change can be good right? So I thought considering 99% of my blog posts are lists that I would write, yes another list blog post on reasons why I'm not ready to become an Adult.
1. I don't know how to manage money to save my life
2. My mum still has to ring the doctors for me
3. I can't get through the day unless I've slept in till past dinner time or I've had an afternoon nap
4. Never used a washing machine in my life
5. I avoid cooking at all costs
6. Somehow I still manage to miss my mouth and spill food down myself
7. I still have to sleep with the landing light on
8. I refuse to talk on the phone with strangers
9. Cleaning? HAHAHA
10. When I hear the word work/job I want to curl up into a ball
Wish me look on my 'new beginning' cause I'm going to need it!
Trust me you'll be absolutely fine :) university is an amazing experience! just try to relax and take it one step at a time xx
ReplyDeleteI hope so, Thankyou for reading and the advice hun! xx
DeleteI totally relate to all of these! I started the dishwasher for the first time ever this morning, haha I feel so grown up! x

I hope that went well haha, thankyou for reading x
DeleteI love this post. I don't want to grow up either, for many of the same reasons you don't want to. I don't know how to manage money either- when I want something I get it. The next thing I know, I'm broke. Haha. Lovely post, Claire!

Thankyou! I know I'm going to be in for such a shock with managing my money x
DeleteHave fun at university! I don't know if I will ever be ready for being an adult xx

Thankyou Laura! xx
Deletehaha this post made me chuckle! I was exactly the same before I went to uni! You'll absolutely love it - good luck! xx

Glad it gave you a giggle, See everyones been fine at university, I guess it's the same as when you first started school or college but I just can't stop stressing. Thankyou Claire xx
DeleteI'm 24 and I still struggle with a lot of these! I kid you not I went round to my Mum's for dinner the other day and she insisted I tucked a tea towel into my top to stop me from spilling. She clearly knows me better than I know myself!

Haha bless you both, I don't think I'll ever be fully adult anyway, I'd rather keep my childish humor and some childish ways, just for a laugh. Thankyou for reading xx
DeleteI'm off to uni too! My mum's purposely bought me a laundry bag which explains what all the symbols mean because I haven't got a clue. I already feel like I'm in debt before I've even got to uni so I don't know how I'm going to manage my money. One good thing; I'm not too bad at cooking and actually quite enjoy it:-)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with uni!

I'm not ready to be an adult but I did an adult checklist here http://louiselovesbeauty.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/my-adulthood-checklist.html Xx
ReplyDeleteGirrrrrrrrrrrl! You are gonna be fine! Honestly, most people starting uni don't know how to use a washing machine and still have their mam's do everything for them. Trust me, there will be people even less able to adult than you when you get there!
ReplyDeleteAnd I gather your student accommodation is halls? That will probably be a nice easy transition before your first rented shared house :) I was not so lucky, there weren't enough halls at my uni, so major panic two weeks before i was due to start! But there were so many people in the same boat and it worked out for the best. Somehow I found three of the greatest people in my life on facebook to move in with. Didn't meet them until we all moved in and we all hit it off! I lived with two of them for the whole three years, the other still one of my closest friends. One of them is my boyfriend now haha :P trust me, you will meet amazing people who will be struggling just as much as you! That is the fun of it! It's a great chance to gain some independance but also have fun sucking at life - you will come out with the best memories and stories of your time there.
I'm so so freaking jealous of everyone starting uni! I'd give anything to go back and do first year again!
Wishing you all the luck in the world! I can't wait to read about your adventures :) xo

PS if you're ever struggling or want some advice, I am always here to lend an ear ;) I actually nearly dropped out in second year so I understand that uni isn't always peachy! xo
DeleteI hated the day my mum told me I needed to start ringing the doctors myself, it's a very daunting task haha, good luck with it all, I'm sure you'll learn so much, when you come back you will be an absolute pro! I have no hope haha x

I've been an adult for a few years now but I can definitely relate to some of these! I hate booking appointments and talking on the phone to strangers! Hope you enjoy university!

I so can relate! I still need my moms assistance to my dentist appointments��! I'm so not ashamed!
ReplyDeleteGood luck at Uni chick! If it makes you feel better, I'm 24 now and I'm still not ready to adult (and still can't speak to strangers on the phone haha) x
ReplyDeleteAlways, Alice
I love your writing style, this post was so funny and lovely to read! I can relate to so many of these points, best of luck at uni though <3 x

Hahaha! I can relate to so many of these, especially the dropping food down yourself! I swear it doesn't matter how careful you are?!
ReplyDeleteI'm also useless at speaking to strangers on the phone too!!
Good luck at Uni, I'm sure you'll be absolutely fine :)
