its been a month at ucl
im not gonna lie i feel like an imposter
how on earth did i get here
you ever watch them series or kdramas where that one poor kid
gets accepted into an elite high school
and he gets bullied
or something along the lines
thats me.
minus the bullying
everyone around me has some sort of 'vibe' or 'aura'
they all speaking about shopping, going out, getting a car hire
and im like bruh
i never done any of this bc im broke
you see i got into ucl with a full paid scholarship
whilst everyone had to pay a big sum of 47k to get into the programme
they all got nice looking clothes and stuff
and then theres me
well i kept it a secret so far
only 2 people know (i think)
maybe more
but ive kept it quiet
ive somehow built a rep here
i like the people around me
but i just dont feel like 'me' at uni
this whole month i feel super drained
like ive been an entirely completely different person
but besides that
everyone is super smart, academic, hardworking, getting jobs and internships
im just watching like how the hell did i get here
do i even belong here
its okay though
i like it so far
ive made good friends
had fun times, i dont think ive had this much fun compared to my other unis
imposter syndrome feels so surreal
ill figure out my identity one day
