Freshers Private Accomodation 2012
Hi 
I'm possibly (still deciding) using Lincoln as my first choice and I was just wondering if there would be anybody interested in going into private accomodation? I've looked on lincolnstudentpad.com and found some really nice places that look even better then the one's that the uni have and are even cheaper then some of them too. If I do end up applying I will post it on here, but for now I was just wondering.
A bit about me:
Hobbies: Reading, watching films, listening to music, browsing on the internet
Course applying: BA Journalism
Drinking: I do drink but I don't get drunk, I drink for the taste (I do sometimes get tipsy though).
Nightlife/Social: I would much rather go to a pub then a club. I haven't been to a club so I will try it, but to be honest, the pub sounds so much better. I love the cinema and I would love to get more time to go to the theatre too (I love anything related to culture).

Hi it's ok. Don't worry.
Yeah, finding someone was one of my worries but I'm glad I'm not the only one. Damn that hill, well I'm sure you'll get used to it eventually.
It sounds like we have a lot in common so I think we'd get along quite well to be honest.
I've got offers from Lincoln-Journalism, Edge Hill-Creative Writing and English Literature, Anglia Ruskin-Writing and English Literature, Leeds Trinity-English Literature and Writing and York St John-Creative Writing and English Literature
I don't really fancy halls much either, I don't wanna be with a massive group of people who are gonna want to go out and get drunk as much as they can haha. I prefer the quiet :P

Oh hey I applied to Anglia Ruskin too 8D Got it down and my backup choice.
nah halls definatley arnt my style. Im a really light sleeper and you just KNOW that you'll be sandwhiched in btween the two party animals in halls.... I also kinda dont like the idea of sharing a kitchen with about 7 other people... you konw someones onna eat your food >_<
SOunds like we would get along fairly well!
Keep me posted on what you're doing uni wise

Yeah, that's one of the main reasons why I wanted to go private. I do enjoy going out but I do want to be able to go to sleep too. I don't wanna be with a massive group of random people. The most amount of people I would wanna be with is 4 (that including me). Anymore than that just seems too much for my liking. Anybody steals my food, I assure them, it will not end well for them :P
Yes, it does I will do. Thanks for the friend request by the way

Well I keep looking at the videos the uni have made and other vids I can find online (including TomSka :P) It sounds so lovely. I can see myself living there for the next three years (fingers crossed). Have you firmed your offer? I'm so happy I've found someone who I'll get along with

What course is it for Anglia Ruskin? What grades do you need to get into Lincoln?I'm from Sheffield (only an hour on the train).
Oh ok, I'm guessing you're doing a BTEC then? I need 280 Points (I'm doing A Levels) so thats basically 2 Bs and a C. I'm really thinking about applying here now.
Have you applied for student finance by the way? I'm in middle of doing it and it wants to know when the end of my course is and I have no idea when

ahhh thats not too bad then 8D Im from round by leeds area so its an hour and a bit on the rain for me too.
UHHHHH I started it. And couldnt make heads nor tails of half of the damned questions.need to go through it with my tutor. =/
And I dont even understand that finance calculator seriously- ive been to two finance talks that both told me i barley get any money, the owest amount possible and its telling me i get about 5 grand. SO I DONT EVEN KNOW WHATS GOING ON.

It's so complicated I've not even had a go on that yet but from finance talks I've been on the total I'd get is around 6 grand, maybe a bit over. I'm gonna try and get the rest done a.s.a.p. so I'm gonna try and talk to mine as well.
By the way, in terms of accomodation, have you seen anywhere nice? Private mail me a link if you do
