    Meeting new people.
    LIVING IN NORWICH. (Slight love affair with the place... Ok, huge love affair with the place. If I could marry a city, it would be Norwich. Can't wait to move there and get out of Aberdeenshire. Grey. Grey. Grey.)
    Being able to eat what I want when I want.
    Studying all the cool pharmacy things.
    More independence.
    Joining societies.

    Edit: Also, putting this up over my desk to amuse me every time studying is making me feel suicidal. Wish I'd seen this before my exams this year.

    I'm more buzzing about the career after the degree actually...

    one thing at a time though lol. I'm just looking forward to studying somewhere really nice (the novelty could quickly wear off though)

    Being in a boarding school must suck sometimes I study at home (self-study) and I feel trapped!

    I'll start next September and it'll be a pack of mixed feelings. I leave behind friends, family and probably my girlfriend.
    On the other hand I'll go to a different country, kind off start a new life and I'll meet new people.

    But I guess what I look forward the most is what I settled as my goal, to learn new lenguages (I¡ll be studing French and German)

    Getting away and living in a big ass city. I freaking hate my horrible, narrow-minded little town.

    Norwich is one of my options, I think. I've never been, what's it like?
    I live in Durham which is a small city, is it kind of similar to that? Many people have said that
