Not independent enough for uni?

I'm going to sound so spoiled and be judged so much but I can't help it. I'm not rich, I don't have money thrown at me. I think my mum just does so much for me to compensate for not having a father. Anyway...

I'm going to uni 350 miles away from home. I'm very dependent on my mum and I wish she'd forced me to do more for myself. Until about a year ago I'd never made a bed. I have no idea how to turn an oven on. I have no idea how to wash and separate clothes, or how to fold them. I've literally never done any paperwork before and with things like bills and student finance I don't know how I'll manage. I forget and lose things very easily, and I find it hard to keep anything tidy.

Did anyone else feel like this before going to uni and how did you manage?
Any tips on how to keep organized? I was thinking I should make a list of things I definitely need to go out on the door of my flat so I don't forget them, and buying a voucher for the closest supermarket so if I budget really badly I'm never starving.
Do you think I should teach myself cooking/ironing/washing clothes now or wait till I'm at uni?

I'm going to my dream university *hopefully* and don't want this to ruin my experience. Thank you.
