Whilst my year as an Erasmus student has now finished, I have not yet completed my time as a student. Having spent the summer with my parents, I will shortly return to university in the United Kingdom. Once there, I hope to continue with driving lessons, which I started in July. I also plan to progress further with my Duke of Edinburgh award by working towards the skills section and possibly the physical activity section as well.
Ambitious plans for a final year student: this is the year I must work the hardest. I expect to work on a Mathematics project on Group Theory. This is a fascinating area of pure mathematics, which has applications in advanced chemistry and physics. Nor shall I neglect the language skills that have taken me so far – there is a French course which I mean to study. However, these courses are all for third year students – those who started two years ago, in 2009. I started in 2008. Thus, the colleagues that I began my studies have largely moved on, and yet again I shall work with a new group of students that I do not know, although this time, they will mostly be younger than me. A contrast to Erasmus, where I was largely the youngest of the group. Still, I suppose I will garner more practice at building friendships.
Time to start packing.
