having successfully spent two semesters at uni, here are some of my compiled tips:

1. you're gonna meet a lot of people, but be sure to keep up your boundaries.
no matter who it is- roommates, friends from school, people who are romantically interested in you and most importantly, professors- always define your boundaries clearly. never let anyone put you down.

2. divide your time wisely. while studying is important, uni also includes a lot of other fun stuff. be sure to set aside some time for that.

3. never share your successes too proudly. if you do, ensure that you add in your failure too.
know that not everyone is happy to see you succeed. be mindful of who you share details to, and understand that things are not easy for anyone. 

4. try to maintain an online diary. keep it highly confidential.
while some may prefer to have close friends or confidants, i suggest it is best to keep a diary. things may get ugly when masks fall. this is the best way to regulate your emotions and to not keep them bottled up.

5. please stay away from negative people.
if necessary, make it clear that you don't like them. but never indulge.

that brings us to the end of the book. i hope reading this brought you some inner peace. because writing it sure did bring me a good amount of sense.

thank you for sticking with me on the journey. see you on another!
