3. Listen for details:

Listen again and fill in the gaps with missing words in this abstract:

-Yeah, and looking out for a kind of social events that are specially designed to ___1___ students. And sometimes I think you know when you arrive in a place you just want to kind of ___2___ for a bit. But actually forcing yourself to go to some of those ___3___ in the beginning is a good way to begin to meet people. And probably, not to expect that it's all going to be ___4___, straight away and to understand that it will be ___5___ and times where you miss home but there will also be many good times and for most of the students come away feeling really really ___6___ as well as getting the qualification, they make ___7___ that they can keep through a life. So, I wouldn't be put off by the ___8___ that I've told.

-Yes, everyone feels the same as well, I mean lots of the students who will be feeling the same, won't they?

-Yeah, that's right. And look out for the support because if they are feeling low these are people whose job is to help students who are feeling in distress. So, look out for those services if you feel that you are in need, don't just skip or hide away, and keep it to yourself.
