Moving away was hard because I had to move away from my parents, they've been such a huge support for me and they cooked me dinner every night. When I was in Calcutta I was doing my schooling and I felt like a princess there because I had my parents pampering me like a princess. Before I moved away to Bathurst life was easy-peasy. It was go to school, come home, watch TV, do homework, have dinner, watch TV, go to bed. Life in Avoca's just so cruisy, I get back from school, go straight to the beach, pick up mates on the way down, stay there till the sun goes down and then that's it. I moved from Taree and the reason I moved from Taree was to go to uni in Bathurst. I moved from Penrith to Bathurst and I mainly moved because of uni. I moved to Bathurst straight after school to go to uni. When I finished my high school my dad decided to send me abroad to study. Moving to Bathurst was really daunting, I was moving really far away from my parents, I didn't know anyone. I don't want to call my parents and keep crying every single day. So at that time I was just in the room and in the corner of the room and crying. When I first moved to Adelaide it's very different from the city which I come from. Moving to Bathurst was probably the best thing I've ever done. I thought I'd be here studying 9 to 5 and in my room watching TV but it's all just friends and having fun. It's great. I think it's alright for me now. I still miss home but after a while now I'm trying to control myself more, control my feelings more. And I have more friends here as well, from different countries and it's good now. My advice would be to do it, it is the greatest decision you'll ever make. Just really make sure that you know that you're ready and you know that you can do it. Always keep your eyes open and making sure that you're taking opportunities but remembering that your mental health and personal life is most important. Before you move start connecting with people, technology has given us Facebook! Stay close with your friends and family at home but don't be afraid to make new friends because they'll be life-long a lot of them.
