I will preface by saying this is entirely my fault, I was barely at uni in year one and two (severe mental health issues). Only time I came in was for a self referred therapy session and maybe one or two lectures.
But at the end of second year I was forced to attend which I was quite happy with as I had some people in my seminars who became warmer to me. Had an exam two days ago and a couple people smiled at me and waved, not necessarily spoke or did the extra stuff but they did acknowledge me which felt good.
But it was quite upsetting to see people with their groups and I was kind of just standing there alone🥲.
I’ve vowed to myself to make a massive effort in third year, attending 90%+ of my lectures and seminars because I chose modules that are genuinely exciting. How can I be a little more approachable come September?
