Yeaah it is exciting! In a weird way I'm glad to be alone; forces me to make new friends rather than staying in my comfort zone! :tongue:

Well i tried to ring, but it went to a robot woman voice, i think its because its the weekend?
BUT i got my offer - its for morton house? wtf :frown:? i applyed for self-catered accom, and i got an offer, way more than i can afford for catered accom :frown: what do i do!?


I'll be a second year next month, stayed in Morton last year. Tbh everyone applies for catered and very few get it. Morton's definitely the best catered hall to be in, Morton & Lady Mountford are the only ones with full kitchens (But LM is rank). Trust me though, Carnatic is the best place to be, better than Greenbank and MILES better than the city centre halls). They're **** holes but you'll have SO much fun.
Everyone applies for catered, and no one gets itt? WHY ON EARTH HAVE I BEEN OFFERED IT THEN, so unfair :frown:, i can't afford it! Yeh my friend stayed there last year and she sais the same!


urghhhhhhh!

Yeah i think i'm going to have to except my catered because i don't want to be in the predicament where i have no where to live haha! But really hoping they can sort it out for me ahha! I can't really afford ensuite jsut sooooo fussy with sharing hygiene stuff haha! Defo need to scrape all the money for alcohol which is obviously they most important thing :wink:!
Ahhh wicked! I'm studying psychology :smile:!
Yeh im the same, i'm just gonna accept my offer at morton house, its not ideal, and il have to live on like £20 a week, but at least i have somewhere to live! I know, i was the same at first, i applied to the places with the least people sharing a bathroom because i cant afford an ensuite, but dont want to be sharing a toilet and shower with gross unhygenic people :frown: haha,m just got to hope for some clean people i guesse!? Is your offoer for morton house?!

I know haha, im just gonna apply for a load of jobs and hope to God i get one! haha!
Ahhh cool man! i went round the psychology stuff when i went on my interview day i think! I might be getting my unis mixed up thoguh! Any idea what date we move down ^^? :smile:

I got my 3rd choice Lady Mountford catered. Read a few bad things about it so I've asked to be moved to Roscoe & Gladstone!


I was given Lady Mountford too. Were you able to move?
