last year i moved from here to dundee uni and didn't really worry about missing friends etc. when i got there it was ace- met new people and all was good. then i started getting bored and missing my boyfriend at the time and the new friends i'd made in aberdeen since meeting him. money also became a MAJOR issue... now i live at home with my parents and commute to uni everyday- sometimes i actually regret moving home because i don't have the same freedom. in my experience, i didn't know the right choice for me until i made the wrong one but you just learn from it i suppose. just don't forget that if you're unhappy somewhere, there's always an alternative.
