I loved the small size - which ofc isn't for everyone but being neurodivergent it was a massive selling point for me :smile: And goes without saying that it's just beautiful! What made you choose Peterhouse (assuming you weren't pooled)?!

yeah i loved that it was small too ! makes it feel like more of a community i guess, plus there's less confusion with getting to know everyone... i also thought that it seemed like a more 'eccentric' college if yk what i mean so i thought that would suit me ahahha !! & i loved the dining hall as well... all so beautiful in every way 🙂

I totally get what you mean! I really love that perspective ahahaha, and yeah I hope the sense of community is as strong as it seems! The average undergrad cohort size is about 80 apparently which is so small -- can't wait to meet everyone!!

Yay! I've mainly been working, but I've ofc had time for my hobbies (mainly writing, reading and exercise)! Although Cambridge is ofc going to be very intense I honestly can't wait for a change, I've been so bored at times 😂 How has your gap year been so far?

I know! I'm not used to being bored - I'm rather a busy body, but everyone keeps telling me that that's the point of 'taking a break' 😅. I've been working (tutoring), and I did an internship at a literary agency - but yes, apart from that I've been reading and crafting and stuff (managed enough uni-hopping to visit my friends that I now have a 'freshers flu' ranking table...!)
