City life..confusing?

So this is it..the big move..to the city! Being a country girl through and through, moving to the city was always going to be a challenge. And a challenge it proved to be. Even deciding what to pack to bring with me was a decision not easily made, I didnt know how I was going to find my away around this big city that is ..Dublin. But now as I enter my 5th week in Griffith College, I wonder what the big fuss was all about, Dublin is now like my second home! Also, coming here I was sceptical about living on my own and meeting new people and wondering what people in my apartment were going to be like. But I was one of the lucky ones and found out that one of the girls I had gone to Secondary School with was also going to Griffith, and having talked to her we decided that we would try and share an apartment, and so when we were told we could share, that also put my mind at ease, at least I was going to know somebody. In this blog I hope to share with you some of the experiences I find with moving from the country to city life some of the problems I encountered and also some of the good things that can come out of being a student and living in the city..
