Oxford 2012 Freshers Chat Thread

Oh right..well in that case I hope the kitchenette near me is decent :| lol You know we're not allowed to fry stuff apparently :|..Yeah the gym seems cool. One of the main reasons I applied to Balliol was that on the university website it said that the gym at Balliol was free. Then I found out last week that we have to pay for membership...lool

Can't believe I only just found this thread!

Anyway, hi again all!
How are we all?

I HAVE MY READING LISTS!!!!!!

Oh Christmas will probs come really quickly

Yeah, he seems to be like that in everything - but in a good way!

yes that was bad. Although to counter that, the first stone angels one was great! And I remember quite recent ones like the vampires and those weird eye space ships episodes being pretty bad! I don't know who produced/ wrote those ones though.

Stone Angels???!!! :O You mean the Weeping Angels? That was Steven Moffat's Blink. It hard Carrie Mulligan in it who is awesome - have you seen An Education?

Yeah apparently its the same rule at other university halls too..I was thinking that my diet would be so restricted :| and lool oh dear...

Lucky you - what's it like?

Hello from germany!!! Miss you guys

Not too bad, although some of the books are hard to find or just bloody expensive. But I'll finally have something useful to read. I do wish I was doing English somewhat, the reading would make so much more sense, ha.

Likewise. I was looking on Amazon for a book on Tennyson...£32. How long is it?

You don't wish you were doing English; the reading list is evil.

Magdalen are playing on UC and the first person I thought of was you

aah I got that wrong, that's what I meant. That was his too?? Okay he really is amazing then, and yes that's such a great film!

Gotta love maths, I just have to do the questions in several pdf files

Well... I say just...

Saving money! (Which will just go on alcohol I suppose.)

I have another theory. Remember that near the end he asks Molly for a "favour"? I think he might have calculated that jumping from that height he would have got badly injured but not died, and the favour from molly might have been to switch his body for another in the morgue and let him escape.

I'm sure there's more to it though...

I think it was based on a true story too. :O I watched Never Let Me Go the other night and Carrie Mulligan was excellent in that too (lightyears better than Keira Nightley anyway lol). That's a good book too, even if it does sorta put you on a downer... :L
