I never realised how much more work A2 is compared to AS and GCSE! I've literally not stopped working these past few weeks, it will be worth it though...hopefully! So I have come to the conclusion that I will probably only be able to write blog posts about once a week.
     For the past few Saturdays I have been visiting different Universities for the open days and have only become more confused! I adore a certain University Campus, it is in the middle of a major city which is a massive bonus for me as I have always wanted to live in a city however I am not 100% sure the course is for me yet. On the other hand I have found an AMAZING course which is a joint honours in two subjects I would love to study, however I don't really like the Campus as it is in the middle of nowhere.
     Although these University open days have only made me more confused I am so proud of myself for going to them as visiting a new place with hundreds if not thousands of new people is very much out of my comfort zone. I'm not saying I have social anxiety or anything but it takes me a lot of persuading to do something new, however I usually push myself to do it as I know the feeling I get after doing it is the best feeling ever. For example for three years I went to summer camps with a couple of my friends. The car journey there was horrible each time, I felt literally sick to my stomach with nerves but as soon as I get there I am absolutely fine and enjoy everything about them. I think the reason I am like this is because I feel everyone judges everyone wherever I go, which is probably not true at all. It's not that I want everyone to like me because that would be impossible, its just more that I would like people to get to know me before making a judgement based on how I look/dress etc.
     Judging people is one thing I don't understand. Why do people feel the need to automatically make assumptions about someone as soon as they see them? In my opinion talking to new people is interesting. Obviously not everyone's personalities mix well and some do clash, however surely it's better trying to get to know someone and giving them a chance rather than just judging.
     All I'm saying is maybe if people were less judgmental then people might find it easier to be themselves and be able to go to new places and experience new things without having to worry.
