Description: Thank you to BetterHelp for sponsoring this video!! 💫 Get 10% off your first month at betterhelp.com/unjadedjade I feel like nothing has higher expectations than university. I always hear adults reminiscing the 'best days of their life' or telling stories about crazy nights out. But there are honestly so many reasons why uni is hard. Here's why university might not be the best time of your life. I wish I'd seen this before I started uni as a fresher! In this video, I wanted to set up more realistic expectations for what university is like and to remind you that your experience is valid if you're having a hard time. Welcome to: the hardest parts of university. 📚 pls share the advice you wish you'd known for university in the comments!! so much love to you all!
