3 Things I'm Scared About Before Starting University

I’m supposed to start university soon and if I’m being honest... I’m scared 😭

 

Everyone keeps saying "uni life is sweet" but nobody is talking about the fear part. So here are the 3 things that keep me up at night:

 

**1. Money** 

How will I survive with the little I have? When I don't even know how to manage for real😭. I keep hearing stories of people running out of money mid-semester. What if my budget doesn’t reach? What if I can’t even afford data to read? The thought alone is stressing me.

 

**2. Making friends** 

What if I’m the quiet one in class? What if I don’t find my people? What if no one wants to be friends with a nerd like me? In secondary school I had my small circle, but uni is different. What if I end up eating alone and nobody checks on me?

 

**3. Failing** 

This one is the biggest. The idea of carrying over a course or having a low CGPA is giving me anxiety especially with the way school fee's is increasing lately. I’ve worked hard to get here even my parents too. What if I get there and mess everything up?

 

But despite all this fear, I’m still hopeful. I know I’m not the only one feeling like this. 

 

So tell me, what were YOU scared of before starting university? Or if you’re also waiting like me, what’s scaring you?
