campus. It was exciting , thinking how I was at college, meeting people
who could become good friends of mine. The most exciting thing was
that I didn’t have to explain to my parents where I was going , who with,
or what time I’d be home.
On Saturday night, I followed my room mate to a party. The people at
the party were busy playing some game, and no one seemed to
notice my existence. I suddenly felt so lonely. Fighting back tears , I ran
Back to my room, thinking I would never feel at home at college.

while she was trying to sleep.

was amazing, but a little scary, to be in place where it seemed like I
never saw the same person twice.

Brenden
The first year at college was probably the best and most challenging
year of my life. Academically, I enjoyed it thoroughly . Taking part in the
advanced Engineering project gave me a chance to use my creativity
and knowledge to help society.
Socially, I made lots of new friends both through engineering and
living at St John’s College on campus. The social calendar of the
colleges provides plenty of opportunities to meet non- engineering
students as well as other engineers, many of whom have become my
best mates.
