Pretty sure I went to one in February. Think it was the 13th. It was okay but I wasn’t to sure about staying in the accommodation. But I might have to if I can’t get my license by the end of this year

Haha it’s all good. Yeah I just don’t want to leave home just yet maybe next year I might get a flat with one of my friend that’s going to the barony next year aswell but I just don’t know if I would like living with other people I’m quite a private person tbh🤗

i’m the same tbh, the thought of living with people i don’t know is really scary to me but i think it might help to get out of my comfort zone a little. plus, i phoned pearl (the woman who deals with the accommodation and things) and she said they were looking into social distancing this year, so i think that might help me be more comfortable and get used to it quicker. each to their own though, i suppose. whatever you decide to do i’m sure it’ll be great x

Probably won’t be staying in the accommodation. Just not really my cup of tea I like my own space and tbh not that great at meeting new people and feeling comfortable around them so sharing a room with someone else would really stress me out 😂
