im facing a similar situation fredharrt. Im lonely but im trying very hard to getting used to it.

Thanx Mog,

I guess i will slowly but surely get there. I think this is a really useful platform.

Im on my first week of PhD study in the UK. Ive just met my DoS and she told me to start. I'm working on
my initial research idea from my proposal. ive heard a number of not so good stories and experiences about a phd and want to start right.

Can anyone reflect on what they actually did the first two weeks....
