Obviously when people think of moving to university there is often one huge thing to look forward to; freshers. Being in a club is fun, I love spending the night dancing and drinking, is there really anything better in life? But the club based environment which freshers largely focuses on means the week doesn't come without hindrances, primarily from guys.
In my life guys have always kind of just been there, I haven't had to go out my way they have just always been around. I haven't had to send friendly messages to weave my way and gain their friendship, well not in recent years anyway. So how the heck do people do it? How do you find the fine line between friendliness and flirtatiousness? What is too friendly?
But my initial worry when I moved here a mere three weeks ago wasn't the guys, it was the lack of them. I found myself moving into an all girl flat and I won't lie, I panicked. Forget the guys, how do you become friends with girls?
Now I realise that I was worried about nothing as girls are lovely. They are especially lovely on a night out; whether its copying your dance moves so you aren't so embarrassed or bumping into you after meeting you the night before and acting like you're BFF's.
Three weeks later I think I'm finding the right balance of friendliness and not worrying too much about guys being a hassle.
There's no point in worrying too much. I'm not going to stop having maximum enjoyment because I'm scared how one person might take. I'm still going to dance and sing and drink, but most of all I'm going to enjoy myself as much as I can because that's what uni is all about, right?
