Transcript

By the way, if you get on really well with at least one of your flatmates, count yourself lucky. I think it can come across like, your flatmates need to be your best friends and everyone gets on really well. That doesn't actually happen in most situations. So yeah, just remember that if you're maybe not so happy about the people that you're living with. And it's good because it means that you have got to get out there and make some new friends. Join a club, join a sport, talk to people on your course. The power of introduction will change your life as soon as you learn how to get comfortable with being uncomfortable by introducing yourself to someone because the outcome is being comfortable. Your life is literally gonna change. You got this.
