“I was really excited about what was coming next, but also really terrified. It was very much like uncharted territory in both ways, and I think that also applied to romantic relationships. Uni is one of the first places where a lot of people get to explore that on their own terms, and so I think there was also that in the air, and always like being with my friends to kind of share stories about the many situations we found ourselves in, and like how ridiculous they were too.
