The start is always the hardest

I certainly hope that the saying is true, that the start is always the hardest and life will get easier after that. Why do I say that? Well, I attended the first lectures for some of my modules and it's certainly not smooth sailing as I thought it should be. As one friend put it, we were tricked into the third year... Trickery or not, I guess I will have to work hard for my grades.
