Maastricht Applicants 2012?

Oh wow so Maastricht will be all new to you then!
I'm gonna have to look again at trains from Brussels then , 1hr 15mins would be great in comparison to the bloody 2 1/2 hours spent on the train last time. When I was looking at the trains when we were booking flights for the open day the shortest time I could find was 2 hours from Brussels to Maastricht, with 2 changes. I'll be doing yet more train research ...it's times like this when I wish I was a train buff unfortunately I find them really boring!

What do people think between Maastricht and Utrecht?

I'm gunna get the weekend one cause that's when I'll be travelling and it's so easy to get around Maastricht anyway during the week

Heheh, yea it's a bit of an addiction. I hope you'll be glad to know that last night i revised and missed the walking dead....and all for the sake of my Geography A-level

Heheeehee that whole scenario made me lol. I vote clean it up, even though you might come into contact with another persons pee at least your housemates won't have to wonder about your, ahem....accuracy. Either that or come out saying, 'where's (insert name) he has to come and clean up what he's done' or '(insert name) what happened in there' I'm sure either of those would shift the blame away from you if you choose to leave it

Ahhhh i love the snow sooo much, when i was living in Canada the first day of this massive snowstorm we had to walk to school (dunno why it was open....) i just remember walking past loads of snowmen and giant icicles....was so pretty

Hehe Rap sounds soooo good in Russian, it's so flowy, in-fact Rap sounds really good in general in different languages i dunno what it is, maybe the words just link differently?

How big is Maastricht, cuz i googled it and found it had districts, but still not sure if that means it's bigger than I'm thinking. Like as big as Devon maybe?

Yeaaaaaa finished all A-level exams....it's weird, cuz i still feel like i should be revising. Now to begin the painful process of waiting for the results

How did your Geography go?

Yeah cleaning it up would be the easiest option but if it kept on happening I would get sick of it :P

Can't have snow closures in Canada they would never be at school Don't some Canadians ski to school? I like snow too but there has to be a lot of it. If there is just a little bit of snow it's just annoying :P.

Hmm, im gonna say it went OK, only because i don't wanna ginx it.....but i almost didn't finish, there were like 8 minutes left and i still hadn't done the evaluation at least i did a bit of evaluating all through the essay but im not sure if it was enough to get the 12 marks but fir the other sections i wrote sooo so much, im hoping it balances out cuz i only need a C to get an A overall

How have your exams gone so far?

God, if that kept happening, i think i'd consider moving or calling a meeting

Hehee, it did snow a looot there, none that i knew skipped school but there was this really weird kid who said that his uncle illegally let him drive his tanker truck across ice roads....i was young enough to believe him and be impressed

I love how in the UK a couple centimeters of snow can cause salt shortages, citywide transport problems and school cancellations.

Hope it all goes well for you. I've not had any exams I took a year out.

not a meeting. Think I would just move :P Or put up a sign....

Nice. Don't know if it's true or not. But a tanker truck sounds pretty cool.

Yeah, there is a school near me that literally closes if there is a snow shower the night before. The transport problems are mainly due to the fact that most people don't buy snow tyres for their cars. In countries with lots of snow use snow tyres.

Yup yup, i hope it will be like a present (Maastricht i mean)
When you went there how did you find it? Was it really small/cozy, i dunno why but that's how i imagine it Ohhh what are the shops like, is there a holland equivalent of Superdrug and do they have baked beans.....it's like my life food so i have to ask
Really 2 hours, hmm maybe it's the time your traveling?...is it 2hrs for flying all the way or for taking the plane to Brussels and then a train to Maastricht?
Hehe train research does sound pretty boring....i've still gotta do mine along with plane research and accommodation research

I hope so too. What did you do in your gap year? (if you don't mind me asking :P)

I was considering taking one, but my mom would never let me. and i really don't know what i'd do if i did take a year out.....probably rest and sleep. Did you apply to UK uni's aswell then? I applied to Exeter and newcastle as back-ups, and im defering the year to 2013 (if i get in for them) just in-case i don't like the MSC course.

Really, snow tyres...wow there is so so much i just don't know. I think we should have snow ploughs here, they are just such cool big machines and they always woke me up for school on time.

I'm doing European Law.

I think I'll stick to Amsterdam airport too it seems like less hassle and less time waiting between trains. I'm in the same Boat as pineapple: I've never been to Maastricht. I was hoping to go before I go on holiday but I don't think that will happen .

I'll be taking the Utrecht route I think.

What British food will you be taking over? IME most places abroad that get regular British tourists will have baked beans. Did you see HP sauce or IRN BRU? I'll definitely be taking IRN BRU with me . It's weird whenever I go abroad and there is British stuff in the supermarket I usually buy it even if I wouldn't normally eat it back home.

Don't think I did actually they surely have to have some HP somewhere though ...hopefully. Don't think I saw any Irn Bru either! ...your case is gonna be stocked

I'm gonna have to sit down before I go & properly think, I'll end up getting my parents to send me stuff haha. Yorkshire tea or PG tips tea bags are a definite, the tea bags over there are really weak & s*** ...in cafes you have to ask for milk because the tea is usually drank without it, I can't be doing with that. I'll be bulk buying biscuits & Mr Kipling cakes though ...I have too much of a sweet tooth to not have any of them!

Does anyone have an idea on when UM sends out bill for the tuition fee?
