Hi, I'm Jess and I start the Psychology course in October - so a little before you do, but thought I'd say hello!

Looking forward to getting it all started now!

Hi there, I'm Sarah,

Bracing myself to start the Psychology degree this October.  Juggling job, family with two teenage kids, dogs etc and wondering how it is going to pan out!

I live near Norwich so would be really glad to meet up with anyone else from the area.

I am mostly terrified about getting lost into OU cyberspace and losing my way around the site!!!

Good luck everyone!

Hi again all I'm based in Peterborough, so not too far from you, Sarah! Maybe we'll bump into each other at a tutorial some time!

I got my books for DSE141 the other day, it's looking really fascinating - so time to get everything prepped and ready to go now! It's getting real now!

Hey I'm Natasha. I'm starting the DD101 course in Feb the day before my 24th birthday apparently! Am really excited to start but a little fearful of keeping up with all the work on top of everything else. Reading that all of you feel the same makes me feel better though! Glad I found this group. Thanks x
