    Besides going to lectures/tutorials and going out on nights out... what do you do with your life?

    edit: I am in my second year of uni so I'm not wandering what uni is like... I'm just interested what other people do with their lives other than the above.
    I do a lot of reading both on and offline. Thats my main joy and retreat.

    I don't go on nights out (in the context you probably mean) they bored the hell out of me. I spend the majority of my time at the cinema and doing work so I can come for the weekend and be with my family.

    Last year we spend hours every single day just sat in the kitchen drinking tea and talking. We'd drive to the beach at night sometimes and play football or just walk around. The insomniacs/part-time insomniacs would go out for walks in the middle of the night sometimes to popular view spots and stuff - that was always great.

    Eat, sleep, listen to music, watch tv online, shop, chill with friends / boyfriend at home/pub, cinema, bake tons of cakes and other yummy stuff, clean kitchen/bathroom (well 2nd year, not in halls so much ), laundry, reading, drawing, more eating, study?

    Read as much as I can, teach myself to play as many instruments as I can afford, and lie in bed watching Karl Pilkington clips on youtube.

    It fills the void between nights out pretty well!
