It has been 9 weeks since I came to Oxford. There were several problems and worries about going abroad, but I reckon it was the best decision I have ever made. Time flew so fast from the first day I arrived in England, but the sad thing is I feel I gained less than I had expected about my English proficiency before I came here. Maybe I expected too much, but I can’t say that because I haven’t tried that much to say like that.
I have already spent quite a lot of time uselessly. I often promise myself not to waste time ‘from now on’, but so-called ‘from now on’ is getting later...
Most of my friends have jobs, earn money regularly while I am studying abroad. Sometimes I feel I am doing nothing better than they are: I am a rather late developer. I am in a period of chaos like an adolescent, but I am sure there will be a better future after this time. I hope I will attend a university that I want. I hope I will have a nice job, meet my soul mate, get married, and live happily ever after. There are many exciting things waiting for me.

I do understand your feeling. Many students studying abroad might think the same thing. You are not the only one worried about the future. Good luck!
Just like Akiko said, you're not the only one. I was surprised that most of students think the exact same way.. Don't worry too much about your future. Sometimes you need to let things go as they go. Be positive and enjoy your stay. ;)
Hi Ellie
I think you are a wonderful girl.
You are very brave. You left everything behind, to start a new: it is really big challenge. At the end you will feel, you arent the same peson. Things have been changed and you have been changed.
And you know, things which dont kill you make you stronger.
And when you are older, you will understand, it wasnt a waste of time. You were very lucky: met new people, got to know new cultures, new way of thinking, and last of all, a very useful language.
Good luck for your life.
I agree with you. You are having a good time in Oxford. I am studying english with you and I always think ,if I were young,I could memorise a lot of vocabulary. You are young,do not worry.I believe after studing you will have wonderful life in future.
