How to survive (and still enjoy) the festive break as a uni student 📝🎄

Because there’s nothing worse than sitting in your childhood bedroom and staring at that blank word document of doom, trying your best to tune out the background noise of your family enjoying the festivities…🙃

It’s all about finding a good balance that works for you, but remember to be realistic - it’s going to be different to your usual Christmas, but make the most of the opportunity to have time off, set aside some downtime and don’t let guilt ruin your fun ❤️

For many of us, the pandemic slashed our chances of getting any ‘real’ work experience in the bank.

3 years later, we’re putting ourself off applying for any job with “3 years minimum work experience” in the requirements list 🫠

But fear not, there are SO many ways to create your own work experience, so you can gain those transferable skills to make your CV shine 🌟

FRESHERS ADVICE! I hope you’re all having the best time & settling in OK. Remember to keep in contact with friends and family & plan a visit home or even to see friends at another university. Make the most of your 16-25 Railcard and save 1/3 off train travel while staying connected with your loved ones ❤️ AD .rail

It's that time of year!!! Freshers - good luck, this is such an exciting new time of life. Remember any feelings are valid and that everyone has a different uni experience. ALSO a reminder that being sad when saying goodbye to your parents is ok but also feeling excited and ready is also OK. Making sure you've got your 16-25 railcard on hand for when you need a break from uni life and just need those home comforts made me feel a lot less homesick knowing I could just hop on the train home when I needed it!! Sending you all lots of love # # # AD
