    was it your 1st choice? I wanted Sandby because it's en-suite and had a lot more people, but it's ok because I'm still happy with hampden! I know I'll have a lot of fun wherever I am though!

    It was soooo stressful! But as long as i share a bathroom with a neat person, and a flat with fun people then I'm happy! Can't wait for all the parties too!

    Just to let everyone know that there are 168 rooms in Hampden so if your numbers are 2 digits say for example "Room 61" its actually Flat 6, Room 1 (where I'm staying until the end of the month) if its 3 digits say for example "Room 232" its actually Flat 23, Room 2.

    Yeah UPP (who owns NTU Halls) do make things a little bit complicated than they should. :/

    Yes, sorry my mistake...!
    Well I live on the ground floor so I don't really go up there unless my flatmate visits his friend who lives in Flat 28...

    I've got pity for those people who will be living in Flat 6 one of the shower rooms upstairs leaks water into the kitchen. Even the UPP people are useless to "maintain" it.

    But I guess it will be different each year seeing as there are different people each year! Like maybe this year all the partyers might go to Sandby! What room are you in? My friend is staying there And what are you studying?

    Sandby is boring I mean I hardly see anyone who parties there.
    There are even speculations of people there being boring.
