Today I was feeling a bit overwhelmed by uni, life, work and all sorts of things. Although I've only been here for two weeks, the work load has begun and the weight of being truly independent is kicking in. Being an English Lit student I already have a ton of reading to do, to concentrate I need quiet and space which has meant that I have resigned myself to my room quite a lot. Today I decided I would take a wonder around the campus to find a space that would I could still concentrate in but that would be less confining than four walls. UEA has beautiful grounds and being just off the Norfolk Broads it has a lovely lake too. I found plenty of quiet spots that I could sit for hours, ideal for getting wrapped up in a book. Fresh air is such a remedy to a busy mind and I find that there is something so relaxing about being by calm water.
I learnt today that I need to push myself to find new spaces where I can get away from the overwhelming world of uni, whilst still getting work done.
