Tree-Hole: Voice from Fergus

My first year in the UK is coming to an end and although I've been talking to you guys every day, here are some things I never mentioned to you ......


I don't know how to describe this year and the UK is not quite what I thought it would be.

Before I came here, I saw many videos and photos of Britain on the social media and I thought that life here would be very nice and interesting,but I felt cheated immediately after arriving.


My daily activities over here are just online classes, shopping, cooking and assignments, barely any entertainment. Especially under the restrictions of the pandemic, I feel even more depressed. All I can do is drawing, listening to music and watching movies in my room.


The most embarrassing thing is that I was the only one living in the 4-room flat I was in, and I lived here for whole year, I can't even imagine how I make it.


Most of the time I was very homesick for my family and friends and food, and I missed the good times I used to have when I can hang out with friends .


I really, really want to go home every single day here, and now it's time to Pack Up as the room I'm currently staying in is also going to expire, yet I still haven't managed to book a flight home. I don't know when I'll be able to get the right ticket and I'm particularly worried about being infected and failing to apply for the health code to return.


来英国也快一年了,虽然每天都和你们打电话,但是这些话我一直都没有跟你们说……


在这一年里面怎么说呢……还是和我想象当中并不太一样,以前在网上看到很多网红的小视频,然后街拍什么的,以为在英国的生活会非常的美好,非常的有趣。


但是来了之后,我瞬间就后悔了。


因为每天除了什么上课、买菜、做饭、写作业,也没有太多的那种娱乐的活动,在疫情的这种限制底下,就会感觉更加压抑,每天我也就在这个房间里面只能画点东西,听点音乐,看点视频之类的,而且更尴尬的是我在的4人间只有我一个人住,我还住了一年,我都不太知道这一年当中我是怎么过的....


大部分时间我都是非常想家的,也很想以前家乡的朋友然后美食之类的,还有以前经常和朋友一起聚餐一起出去玩狼人杀什么剧本剧本杀各种杀……在英国的每一天应该可以说无时不刻的非常想要回去。


现在终于到了收拾行李的时候,然后宿舍的期限也快到了,但我还是没有买到回家的票,也不知道什么时候才能买到合适的机票,然后也特别担心转机的时候,然后会不会被感染,能不能顺利申请到绿码,并且顺利回到国内。
