    Re: Your "Oh ****!" stories/moment at University
    Not a uni story but oh well.

    School trip to London about four years ago, my friends and I were all just chatting in the room I was sharing with my best mate. I wanted to test the whole using a glass to hear through doors theory, so I sat seeing if I could hear what was going on in the hall. Heard people going "Oh, she's passed out!" and thought they were taking the piss, so I got up and kept chatting to my friends. When the others left to go back to their room they opened the door and we discovered that a girl actually had passed out in front of our door (she was very drunk), and nobody knew who she was or who she was with. Two guys picked her up and walked into our room with her, saying "Ah, we'll just put her in here!" and put her on my bed. I had this moment of "Where the hell am I going to sleep?!" and considering running along to our friends already crowded room and begging a space on their floor. Luckily her friends turned up a moment later and the guys took her out, but it was a bit of a "Oh ****!" moment for me. Nowadays I probably wouldn't mind that much.

    Not from uni,

    However, from my ski trip in december we were allowed to be unleashed on the town on the last night

    Everyone had gone to the town shop to buy alcohol before we went out.
    I ended up with a bottle of wine and drank half of it before i went out so was a little bit drunk already.

    Cue a few hours later and 10 pints down my neck plus the previous half bottle of wine, i was feeling rather sick, i started to run out side at which point my teacher spins me round in the direction of the loos.

    Couldnt hold it in any longer and had already spewed in my mouth three times, next minuet im throwing up all over myself from head to toe covered in sick

    Ran to the toilet, projectile vomitted over the toilets and the floor, which my friend had to clean up.

    Stopped been sick and saw this woman looking very disgusted at me, my teacher then informed me i threw up all over her!

    Managed to get back to my hotel room with all my teachers, i grabbed the bin and startes been sick again with my head in directly in the bin, already covered in sick!

    My friend lent out her jeans to another girl, she pissed herself in them, she lent me her jack wills i threw up all over it.

    My college teachers now think ive got a drink problem!

    No really oh ****, but it was in the morning


    Why was i negged for this :s i was just blind drunk?

    5 days before an Engineering mathematics exam realising I would have to teach myself a fairly large amount of A level further maths and calculus and that going to lectures may have been a good idea.

    I somehow managed to pass despite knowing I'd attempted a 20 mark question in completely the wrong the fashion.

    Re: Your "Oh ****!" stories/moment at University
    In my third week at Uni I invited my best friend over to my flat for a couple of days to meet my flatmates (at the time only two of the boys were in, me and the two other girls) and hang out. He decided to bring Absinthe with him for us to try. After everyone maintaining that we wouldn't, one of my female flatmates decides in the middle of Ring of Fire that it was going to be a rule that we all had to have a shot. So we all did. An hour later after a few more drinks after, the three boys all suddenly crashed simultaneously at 11pm, the girls however were okay. One locked himself in his room, once we managed to get in we found him stood in front of his bathroom mirror in his boxers and socks swaying. He stayed there for two hours. My best friend meanwhile had fallen asleep on my bedroom floor, so we left him for a bit. We checked on him a little later and he had vomited something bright red all over my bedroom carpet and bathroom. The girls cleared it up whilst I checked on the other flatmate. He was sat in his bathroom, on his duvet, laughing at the sink as he could see green fairies dancing on it. I freaked and screamed for the only sober person in the flat left to check him out and get him to bed. He'd also broken the fire extinguisher.

    I ended up getting with one of my flatmates after about 3 weeks of living there. We kept it quiet from the others initially until we felt happy to 'declare' it. Boyfriend was out one night and my flatmates were going out, I decided to play Never Have I Ever with them before they left. Turns out that they had worked out what had happened and started making up things they knew would catch me out about what we'd been up to. It was rather embarrassing when he walked in and they started shouting at him that they knew everything.

    One of mine would definitely be going to my room in my towel after getting out of the shower to find a friend had put a spider in a mug in my room, so I went to have a go at him and hear the dreaded locking of the door.

    My friend then proceeded to let everyone know before climbing through my window to let me back in

    Of course not.

    Tenerife is dedicated to parties - also Freshers week is party orientated, it certainly does not totally focus on parties. There is other stuff going on as well

    Not uni story but meh

    Fitting 15 of us in a 7 seater mini bus to go to a party and shouting as loud as we could with beats in the background 'LETS GO ****ING MENTAL' (Sore throat today, as it was yesterday)
    Trying to plank in the middle of the road and not being able to get back up without falling back down and having your mates pick you up

    I'm not even at university yet and I've already had an embarrassing moment. :facepalm:

    A few months ago I had to go for an interview at one of the universities I applied to. It was in London so I didn't really know how long it would take me to travel there by tube, and I ended up arriving 45 minutes early. Anyway, I found my way to the correct department, and the email I received said to meet in one of the seminar rooms, but because I was so early there were no signs up and nobody around to help. After finding what I thought was the correct room, I opened the door and walked in... to find about a hundred students staring at me as I stood there in a suit and tie looking confused. Turns out I walked into a lecture theatre halfway through a lecture. The lecturer stopped and said to me "ah you must be one of the interviewees, you look far too smart to be one of my students, you want to room next door" and I sort of shuffled out while everyone sat in silence.

    :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
    At an interview, I fell over and sprained my ankle right in front of my interviewer! One of the most embarrassing things ever.

    It's still crazy but join a sports team. I'm thinking along the lines of Rugby if you want to see a real ****ed up crazy night out.

    I was the School rep for the entire school of Psychology.

    I sent out an email to all of the students, something about a meeting or whatever...

    A friend replied to me, and I jokingly replied to him with a string of obscenities in size 72 bold rainbow text. "**** you you ****ing idiot I know where you live" etc etc.


    Clicked "Reply all" instead of reply.

    Good times.

    One of our football teams got banned from 4/9 bars on campus. So probably.

    Fairly :p:

    Can't state for every university but Rugby/Hockey are the mental cases at Birmingham.

    A couple of weeks ago, was in the backseat of our car. I was in the back seat, my brother in the front, with our dad driving. We're crawling along in rush hour traffic. Then, as the traffic clears, my brother winds down the window, and shouts 'bus w*****s' at a bus stop, proper in-betweeners style. Then, our Dad stalls the car :eek:

    The bus w*****s laughed at our spectacular fail, made especially worse as we were in a Ford Ka


    why the negs?
