OP

just wanted to let everyone know about the awful accommodation themed dream I had.

got to the University on the first and was told they had decided to try accommodation on arrival. I ended up in 'Crack House', true fact, which was a mere 6 hours from the Univ as I was repeatedly told on the bus journey there. When I got there it was just a proper dive, everyone was on drugs, funnily, and I shared my room with a rat the size of a rabbit. with rabbit ears for some reason. It was awful. someone hold me

I think I'd be irrationally disppointed if I didn't get my first choice

Me too. I'm trying to come to terms with the fact that i'm going to be using Bristol's oldest flushing toilet for the next year.

where's that one then?

I'm clinging to the fact that because I'm on a gap year I'll be handed my first choice on a plate. I'm like that

Manor Hall. Yeah, i thought maybe they'd give unconditionals first choice but no. I thought that maybe having lived in London on my own for some of this year i'd have more of a chance, but no again. Argh! Why do we have to wait for A-level results!? I want to know NOW!

do we not find out until after the results? that's actual *******s. we should be told in advance, so that we can gloat and be smug.

From the Bristol website:

"If you are guaranteed an offer of accommodation, it will be sent to you by Monday 4th September. The offer will be accompanied by your tenancy details and Terms and Conditions, which you should read carefully. The deadline for accepting your offer is Monday 11th September. If you do not accept by this date your room may be offered to someone else."

I don't want to go if I don't get in Goldney either :\

I had a weird accom dream too, we were being bombed by someone, and the top floor was so low that I had to crawl along to get into the rooms, which I hated as I'm claustrophobic, so I ended up sleeping outside whilst bombs dropped around me :\

I'm assuming that's what it's like in the other halls.

Goldney. Lmao. I think everyone's first choice was Goldney. Nooooo, it's so depressing!
