I have been described as someone who is prone to working \u2018too hard\u2019, so I thought I would focus this blog on ways to chill out and enjoy Christmas time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Just enjoy your first year<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I look back to my first year at university, I wish that I had placed less pressure on myself. It really is a year of learning &#8211; learning to adapt to living alone, the university way of life, how to manage your time and the best ways to approach the different forms of studying. It is a year of progression and one that should be enjoyed \u2013 not one that should be spent being stressed. I\u2019m not suggesting that you spend your first year drunk instead of attending lectures and seminars, but it is important you enjoy yourselves alongside managing your workload. Time really does fly (everyone always says that, but it genuinely does). Now in my second year studying Social Policy, I have just 8 contact hours a week (split between lectures and seminars), with a lot of independent reading set, so it is important to get the work-life balance right!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127033175319.jpeg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127033175319.jpeg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"received_10206127033175319\" class=\"wp-image-2371\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127033175319.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127033175319.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127033175319.jpeg?w=960&amp;ssl=1 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the university term having come to an end at the beginning of December, the city centre is just starting to buzz and there is always something going on. You can go and watch the festivities begin at the Christmas light switch-on, or search for the ice sculptures dotted around on the \u2018York Ice Trail\u2019. You could join in at the Minster and sing some carols, or go to a pantomime put on by the university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Relaxing in York at Christmas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg?resize=300%2C225\" alt=\"received_10206127031695282\" class=\"wp-image-2370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg?resize=768%2C575&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg?resize=1024%2C767&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/received_10206127031695282.jpeg?w=1334&amp;ssl=1 1334w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My favourite way to chill out in York over Christmas is to wander round the Christmas markets&nbsp;(although avoid weekends unless you want to encounter all the tourists!). It is a great way to soak up the festive atmosphere and do a spot of Christmas shopping. Oh, and the mulled wine and food huts are amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the past two years that I have been at York, my college (Constantine) have organised a&nbsp;trip to Leeds Christmas markets&nbsp;which was great fun (and cheaper than getting the train there yourself!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/constantine-leeds-christmas-markets.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/constantine-leeds-christmas-markets.jpg?resize=169%2C300\" alt=\"Leeds Christmas markets\" class=\"wp-image-2368\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/constantine-leeds-christmas-markets.jpg?resize=169%2C300&amp;ssl=1 169w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/constantine-leeds-christmas-markets.jpg?w=331&amp;ssl=1 331w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Leeds Christmas markets<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your college will most likely have a \u2018fake Christmas day\u2019&nbsp;and have Christmas events throughout the holidays if you stay in York beyond the end of term. Facilities like the Library remain open throughout the holidays too, which can be very helpful if you have essays or assignments due in the New Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But remember, if the stress does get too much, or you just need a bit of advice, there is always someone you can talk to! You have your personal supervisor, lecturers, seminar leaders and module conveners. They are all there for you and will welcome your questions and interest (although perhaps not on Christmas day&nbsp;&#8211; we should let them have a bit of a holiday too!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember to relax and have some \u201cyou\u201d time, it is a holiday after all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you wanted a little taster of what York is like at Christmas time take a look at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=aHXSh8OCUXM\">this<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and wish you all the best for the New Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/category\/city-life\/festive-york\/\">Read more blogs about how students get festive in York!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone!
