Living at uni and quite literally alone

Mature student surrounded by younger students. 32 years of age is a good age to get a degree, but trying to fit in? Not happening lmao..

Anyone else had a similar experience?

I don’t think I would live at Uni if I was a mature student. I remember my last year at a new college, I was 20. A lot of people I knew were 16-17. That’s only a few years but I felt old. Can’t imagine what over 10 years would be like. Saying that my best friend for a year was 15 years younger than me and was at Uni, I was at home. Knew him from work. It’s not uncommon to have younger friends so I think we should be able to relate to younger people even if we don’t fit in.
