    About you:
    Uhm: I'm rather nerdy; woo, games 'n that.
    To fit the stereotype I'm also incredibly socially awkward (I'm told I get more tolerable with time '-_-).

    Re: TSR students at University of Plymouth
    TSR Name:Omar Ebrahim
    Course: Computing foundation year
    Year: First
    Halls/Private accommodation: Halls - Robbins
    About you: I finished my A Levels in 2009 after a rather rough 3 years of A Levels and a tough time at home. I decided not to pursue education any more, so I spent a couple of years working as a computer technician until I'd gained what I could out of it, and realised there wasn't anywhere for me to go without much training so I applied through UCAS to several universities and Plymouth was the only one to offer me a place with a foundation year as an access to the full degree in 2012 (I escape the higher fees). I realised this was the best option as my maths isn't my strong point and it'll ease me back into education. Looking forward to freshers week, and I'm in Robbins block T if anyone else is too!!

    Course: English with History
    Year: First
    Halls/Private Accomodation: Living at home in Torquay (I'm a commuter!)
    About: I'm Nina, changed my mind about uni a fair few times so Plymouth was a last minutes decision, hence the commuting from home. Bit nervous that not living in halls will mean I don't make any new friends, fingers crossed this won't be the case! I play guitar, sing and play video games. Also love zumba, but love food a little bit more!

    Please feel free to add me on facebook: 'Nina squeakythepin clarkson' as I'd love to get to know people before we start our courses!

    TSR Name: hello katy
    Course: Psychology
    Year: First
    Halls/Private Accomodation: Private house in Peverell
    About: I'm 24, originally from Lincolnshire, I was offered a place at Lincoln Uni to study Psychology a couple of years ago straight from college, but personal circumstances have meant it's had to be put off for a little while! Moved to Plymouth almost a year ago and thought it was about time I got back to it :-)
    I've had a fair few nights out in Plymouth over the last year already with local friends, but not met any fellow students to do student-things with yet, so please feel free to pm me if you're in a similar situation!
