2 weeks of uni in 1 crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy post

So I'm now at the university of Greenwich in Kent and ave been for 2 wks. It's been an epic 2 wks but I won't be detailing every second of it as otherwise this post would be massive. First off, just to reassure u lot, I love uni even though the work has now started and I ave a 10 page essay to write. I been cooking for myself most days and I'm enjoying the independence though the experience was a bit scary for the first few days.

My room is definitely big enough and so is r kitchen. The university of Kent, who shares r campus, ave better accommodation and pay less and ave a Tesco, dominos and subway on site. I'm jealous even if the don't live on campus like me. I share my flat with 5 other people though one, who is Chinese, we see nothing of. We ave never seen him in the kitchen to feed himself so we ave no idea how he's being fed. The other 4 r cool and I get on well with them.

Now onto freshers wk which has to be one of my weirdest wks ever. Afternoon sleeps were the norm for everyone mainly cause I can't sleep past 10 and I got back most nights at 3am.

On Saturday I was the first to move in. I unpacked then went on a final lunch with my family and then I said my goodbyes. However when I got back to the falt I found another persons stuff in the kitchen but I never saw anything of this person till Sunday. This meant I was the only one that moved in on Saturday so when I went to the bbq at 5 I knew no one :(. But due to 2nd/3rd yrs being friendly and a speed meet thing I quickly made friends and met people who were on my course. On Sunday the other 5 flatmates arrived. Later on there was another free bbq and a rock and roll Bingo where ur given a sheet with 9 tracks and it's the 1st person to have all their tracks played. Monday was a School Disco where I dressed in a white shirt and tie and I partied hard till 2 am. Tuesday was a pub crawl where I found my local weatherspoons. I think we visited a total of 4 pubs which is better than what I normally achieve with the cf crew. Wednesday was neon rave where I wore neon paint, colourful clothing, uv hair spray, glitter and a slinky which made me look like this:


















It was a fun night :). On Thursday we went to a club called casino rooms. It has 3 dancefloors and the top one is humongous. Also every Thursday, due to it being student night, it's free entrance and 3 for 1 drinks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On Friday night thinks started to get interesting, as due to me playing a drinking game, I was forced to down 1 1/3 pints of some Stella and Sainsbury cider contraption and snort some. As u can see I wasn't v lucky. Finally it was Saturday and the night of the freshers ball. Not sure if it was worth £14 but it was gd fun and the band that played 1st were brilliant. Also there was a face painting stand which transformed me into this:


















I also forgot to mention that throughout freshers' wk I had an induction wk for my course which resulted in me somedays starting at 9 and being v tired.

This wk, unlike freshers' wk, has zoomed by. I started my course and the lectures went fine though I've already had some coursework set :(.

And that was my 2 wks. Luckily throughout these 2 wks I was only hungover once and that was the 1st Sunday morning :).

Bye
