The first thing I noticed about England was the hot dogs when i arrived hungry at Stansted. They looked strange compared to the ones I'm used to, but tasted nice. I was offered mayonnaise which seems to be the standard
instead of ketchup, strangely enough. Secondly driving on
the left side of the road was pretty scary the first time. It felt like I was about to crash all the way from
Stansted to University. Arriving quite late I just managed to get my key card before
the offices closed and got my bags locked up in my room. Next step was meeting
lots of new people in the squares and eventually my friend that I knew from
before took me to sub-zero. I first met a couple of my roommates at 3 am the first night when I came back to the flat, luckily they didn't mind some noise.. The rest of freshers’ week was awesome; I met lots
of cool people and had a great time. The impression freshers left on me about Essex
university and the students in general was very good, everyone were nice and
friendly, and I feel like this will be a good place to study. I feel like I've been really lucky with my flatmates as well since they're all great people. Academics have also been good; I find the
subjects interesting and teaching methods effective.
