University life is stressful.... I do admit that it's at least much better than my old miserable high school life back in the old days. But surprisingly in university, you literally gained control of EVERYTHING in your life. And when I said everything, I meant literally everything is under your control and your responsibility as well.
Will the teacher (lecturers) give you homework (assignments) and tell you to finish them before some day? Nope, The tasks are all uploaded on their website and if we want to do it, we would need to find it ourselves. If we don't complete their assignments, will they punish us? Nope, they'll do something like "well too bad, no marks for you on this assignment" :) And what are the subjects (module) that you are supposed to take for this semester? Go find it yourselves on the website, don't be lazy...
See what I mean...
If you fail any of your exams, will they let you continue to learn? Nope, retake the whole semester until you passed :) Must you join extra co-curricular activities? Nope, we don't give a damn about whether do you want to join any one of them or not. You literally have to take care of your own educational life style when the moment you entered college. The transition from high school to university is quite rough at first, but you will get used to it eventually. As assignments, I wouldn't say they give a lot of them. But it's enough to keep you busy for a whole day. Making friends would be your biggest problem of all. Even though the orientation allows you to introduce yourselves to one another, by the end of the week you will still become a lonely stranger to everyone unless you really start talking to people.
So far I am trying to get involve in college activities just to make more friends, but it would seems that is taking a huge amount of time away from my hobbies. Even when I joined the Anime Club, I still didn't make much friends on the opening party. At the moment, I am planning to open an anime booth sale in the campus and I hope this doesn't screwed up my reputation in my university life...
