everything i wish i knew in first year | western university
hi team i remember feeling extremely overwhelmed by university around this time last year i didn't like my courses i felt like i had no friends i missed high school basically i was completely lost and i wish i had someone to tell me that it was all going to be okay. if you're feeling the same way i am here to tell you that it's going to be okay. your feelings are valid and everyone transitions to university differently. this video is a letter to my freshman self warning i talk for the full 12 min but i hope it helps you in some way. more videos coming soon xoxo.
(p.s. i'm so sorry this is filmed on my windows surface laptop 2 pls watch on 720p thx)
timestamps
0:00 intro
0:43 academics (meeting people, imposter syndrome, having your career figured out)
2:14 friendships (finding your friend group, maintaining high school friendships, why are the vibes off i just want people to like me)
4:08 parties (do you actually like parties or are you just going because everyone else is, ingenuine friendships?)
5:23 substances (checking in with yourself, is peer pressure real?)
6:48 clubs (application process, dealing with rejection/failure)
8:06 dating (everyone is different, i am a hopeless romantic, focus on yourself!)
9:15 dating apps (instant gratification, are they worth it?)
9:56 it's okay to miss high school
10:50 you didn't pick the wrong university

Only in 10th grade but I find it's great to at least know what university will be like when the time comes! Will also add that you are a really underrated youtuber, I can see the passion you put into these videos through your editing and just how happy you look on camera. Take my sub :D Edit: UWO will definitely be my pick for university!
