Everyone loves a good list of something don’t they? University can be a very special time in your life. There are some incredible opportunities to grow as a human. And also for being extremely silly. Enjoy our list!
1 – When older students meet younger students! Yep, Freshers Week! A great big bang to your first week at uni. New life, new faces, new experiences. But mostly one big PARTY.
Archibald J. Motley – Nightlife
2 – Making friends! Old friends and New friends, where would we be without them?

3 – Joining Societies! If you have something you are interested in and have a proper geekfesting time over. Then chances are there is a society for it!

4 – When you are asked if you did the required reading! Errr… My dog ate them probably won’t cut it this time.

5 – Being in a lecture when hungry! Trying to hear the lecture but all you can hear is the grumbling bear inside you. Then realising it’s a toss up of eating your notes, or dying.

6 – When debates get serious! Shut down the angry one who has murder in there eyes. Debates are suppose to be fun.
