You don't really think about what you're doing unless you have a year off. Now I'm more aware of the work aspect of university and how it does determine how you start off in your career. I'd like to get into the media. I know it sounds square but I'm looking forward to studying and testing my brain. I'm not going to sit in my room every night but I don't feel under pressure to go out. I'll have fewer distractions because I know what I want from university. All the attractions of university life and the freedom don't seem so attractive any more, now that I've had a year off and had the experience of living in Africa. I hope I don't get too carried away with thinking I'm independent. I won't really have left home until I start earning my own wage. As long as Dad gives me an allowance, I can't feel independent.

The impression I get of university life is that students hardly study and they're out every night. If friends ask me out there's not chance of me studying. That's going to be the main difference, that I'm going to be so free. I'm looking forward to running my own life. But I am a bit nervous because I don't know how to cook or anything. The thing that really worries me is work. I've worked in an accounts office so I know I don't want a boring job. I want a company car and a good wage and all that stuff. Everyone says that university is the best years of your life — that's what I want it to be. But if it's boring I'll have to stick with it.
