I'm looking for some advice. I currently study Human Biology at Manchester Met, I am in first year and have lived in greater Manchester all my life (25 minutes from the centre.) I am currently living in halls and have made lots of friends, and am happy with the course but in the back of my head I regret not moving somewhere new (like Liverpool.) I feel as though I'm independent as I do everything myself, but I think it would of been a completely different experience if I moved somewhere new, (although I'm not sure if that's me thinking the grass is greener elsewhere as I do like Manchester.) I initially decided to go to Manchester as most of my friends who have gone to Uni have gone to UoM or mmu and moved into hall. I didn't want to completely leave my life behind and my boyfriend, and never considered that I might miss out by not living in a new city. If I decided I wanted to drop out I would have to start from first year and lose the money from this year of education, and I do have a house for my second year, so I would have to find someone to replace me in the contract. So what I'm wondering is how much I'm missing out and if its worth the hassle?
