I'm gonna try to do that too. I know it's unlikely that I'll be really good friends with the people in my flat, but I'd like to at least get on with them okay and be on generally good terms with them. One of my friends really hates all of his flatmates and hates being in his flat because it's filled with tension
I'd absolutely hate that.
I can imagine it being difficult suddenly moving that far away
I'm glad that it's going in the opposite direction for me haha. He was 4 hours away, now he's at uni he's only 2 hours away, ad he'll be practically on my doorstop come October
Me and my boyfriend didn't do anything for Valentine's day this year. I saw him at the weekend but left on the 13th
Mm, I'm glad I'll get to apply early so I'll probably get the accommodation I want and I'll be in a flat of equally geeky enthusiastic people
I think I'd ideally like maybe an 8-12ish people flat (assuming it had a nice, big kitchen!), since 5-6 sounds too small and 16 sounds intimidatingly big
And I'm pretty sure I'll want ensuite too. I wouldn't necessarily mind having a shared bathroom, but knowing me I'd be really unlucky and end up in a flat full of slobs who don't clean up after themselves and would drive me insane by the end of the year. I'm ignoring the fact that I could still end up with people who leave the kitchen in a mess all the time
I think I'll automatically be in the English society, and I'm definitely going to join the music society, but I'm not sure beyond that. Perhaps film socs, and I might try getting involved with one of the student papers, but I don't really know...
