Bye Bye Money

Im getting rid of cash quicker than I can pass water. The main culprit isnt drink... but books. Lottsa books. All at around £30. Sheesh.

In other news im making lots of friends, and having lots of time to contimplate my space in this universe. Erm that means im still drinking lots.

Propper post tomorrow once the parents have been down and spent loads of money :)

I'm not scared, i'm too frightened to be scared.

Having now got to grips with the basis of lectures. Im shi**ng my self. The work load seems totally and truely daunting.

However there does seem to be light at the end of the tunnel. We are starting a wine club as part of the HCIMA group that we all now belong to. (Hotel and Catering Institutional Management Association) So good chance of getting drunk at the uni's expense

Freshers Flu!!!!

Is everyone from Bristol?

Right quick catch up. Wednesday: Pointless meetings. However in the afternoon some progress was made. I now have my NUS Extra card, UPSU Sports Card, I am now covered by the doctors and I have a PlymCard. I have been to the SU (Students Union) Freshers Fair and collected 3 bag fulls of useless leaflets and offers, but I can get 25p off beans at sainsburys. :)

Last night: Slow start really, I wasn't really up for it because of an increasingly aggravating sore throat. However that didn't stop me from downing a double whiskey as soon as I got the SU. Followed in quick succession by a pint of cider.
We then headed down to Union Street, to a bar called C103, where you couldn't get in for love nor money. So about turn we went.

It was then I met an old friend from Bristol, she is now in her second year at Plymouth. We went in to a quieter bar and caught up. I ended the night back at hers and meeting all of her flatmates. All in all a good night.

All the bells and sirens

Quick update: Monday.
Student night at one of the larger clubs in the city. Absolutly packed to the rafters. 20 mins to get a drink. Good music though. Gave up in the end and left for the next club, more expensive, smaller but not as packed.


So today: Got in from the above at around 1:30. Had to be up for 8am yay. So... 7:30 Fire Evacuation. Its loud and its not nice for people with hangovers. So 15 mins in the cold, and so back to bed for the remaining 15 mins, that turned into 45. Luckilly the place i had to be was 2 mins away.

Today we learnt that we would be running a cafe for 3 days a week every 5 weeks. Slightly daunting, but looks so fun. I also met the other people on the course, im doing... all 6 of them. So for the first year we are with all hospitality students and have 2 sessions a week just on our own.

Half an hour after I got back my friend came over, we sat around, and they decided to test the fire alarm, even after the drill this morning, only for 10 secs luckilly. So we went to subway for lunch.
He left as he had more induction, so I went back to bed. Got 30 mins kip in before my mate let me know he was free again. Que youtube, until we got evacuated again. May I now name and shame Gilwell Block 1 room 2, dont burn food you plebs.

As we were eating tea... yup another alarm, luckilly the neighbouring halls so no worries. And so here we are, pirate night tonight yay.

First quiet night

Tomorrow freshers week really starts, unfortunately it starts with a early morning, getting up at 8am!!!
Tonight I havent been to the pub, but have been able to get 3 beers in, thanks to co-op doing a cheap deal.
I've been sat at Pete's all evening watching a mixture of Family Guy and Bottom Live shows; eating pizza and having the aforementioned beers.

If this is the student life... I'm not complaining.

Another night of booze, and how I became a sex god.

Have just got in from boozing it up.

3 bars tonight, The Fresher and Professor, The Roundabout and Bar Cuba.

Spent the majority of the night at Cuba, good music and reasonable drinks. Roll on tomorrow for 2-4-1 cocktails. Yay.

As for the sex god... well... apparantly noone thought a fat guy could dance; even less thought he could dance reasonably well. Myself included; virtually none thought I could shimmy down to the floor using just my bent knees.
Also maybe being able to carry anyone above my head without straining, I feel my reputation is secure, even if I feel like a pillock when dancing.

Having a lie in for sunday, this uni lark isnt so bad after all.

Well not quite daily

Ive only just got my internet sorted, so heres hoping its going to stay up.

There has been alot of things going on around here lately, but at the same point, not alot. Mainly drinking. Lots of that going on.
Especially as theres always somewhere doing 2-4-1 or buy two for £5. Lots of cocktails going down the hatch.

Usual start time 8pm, current end time 2 am. And I still have money left so I'm doing something right. Have also started to meet people, its one of their birthdays today. We have even got a cake.

All my flat mates are in, they are a cracking bunch of people, and tidy even when drunk.

Anyway, more tomorrow

Service resumes

Dont ask where Ive been, its all been a bit manic.

I am now packed and ready to roll, I leave for uni at 11 am tomorrow.

I hope it use this blog on a daily basis, to give short posts on uni life, and also maybe to put how I feel is this shit-your-pants-this-is-scary-and-exciting-and-expensive time.

Be honest, did anyone actually notice that I wasnt here?

Also as of tomorrow, I'm; Plymouth Traveller
