Embracing University Life and Making yourself at Home
Moving away from home to university usually stirs up a wide range of emotions – there is the excitement of starting a new life with new opportunities and people, as well as sadness and anxiety at being away from home for the first time, moving away from friends and family, and having to manage on your own.
But something that can really help you to settle into university and embrace the lifestyle, particularly in those first few weeks, is making your home feel like home! Many people find that when they have a comfortable space that they can call their own it makes them happier and more confident in life.
When it comes to choosing where you will live when you are at university, have a look at various places in the area the university is in, like this Cheltenham student accommodation. Once you have chosen a place that you can make your own, it is time to start getting everything ready to move in…
Pictures and photographs are not only a good way to brighten up a room, but they also keep you in touch with home and the family and friends there. You can create a photo wall or hang photos from string lights.
Lighting is also something that is important when it comes to making a place more homely. Lamps are great for studying in the evening as well as for making the cosy surroundings at night time when you can settle down with a book.
