Thank you!
MMU is a great uni, well, I know it is with regards to law anyway!
You're located in a fantastic city and you have 3 universities within a mile of each other so it is student central!! Great for nights out!
What are you going to be studying?

Okay so I've been in my house just under a week now and out of my 7 nights here I've only been alone for 3 so far as my boyfriend has been staying over when he can, so all in all not too bad so far!
Massive tip for you first years, when you eventually go house hunting, if the current people are in the house when you view it, try to ask them questions! I certainly regret not doing that!
I arrived here to find a stack of bills for us and no idea what to do about them!
Also, we've found a few (pretty minor) issues in the house, for example, our kettle didn't work, we've been given an appalling tiny Hoover, drawers were broken, we don't have a dryer, we need a new back gate and two dining chairs are missing!
Fortunately, they have new things on order for us, so make sure you find the problems as soon as you can and report them to your agency/landlord!
All in all I'm quite enjoying this week, although I am tremendously bored because none of my friends are back in manchester until the end of this week
Only a week to go until I find out if I passed my resits and got into second year! Getting pretty nervous now!
As always, ask any questions you may have

Holaaaaa.
I GOT INTO SECOND YEAR (finally)
Now everyone is in our house which is good, now we're just fine tuning where the hell to put things!
It's the University of Manchester's freshers week this week, so our road has been crammed with house/street parties and drunken people being very loud!
Alas, on Monday that will be us MMUers! Can't wait to go out again, feels like forever since I last did!
Hope everyone had/is having/going to have an awesome freshers week, you'll never forget it!!

Well I'm a fully fledged 2nd year student, I already feel like I'm drowning in work to the point that I've only been out clubbing TWICE so far this year, how lame!!
However, my luck is turning! I have a job interview tomorrow, yippee!! Really hoping I get it as I need a job before I bankrupt myself!!

Goodluck with the job interview, feel free to let yourself loose once in awhile can't be studying all the time
I finally got a job!!!
Woohooooo!!!
It's only at McDonalds, but hey, at least I'll have an income!
Things can't be going better here right now: I have a great house, great friends, great boyfriend, challenging uni course and now a job!
Smiles all around

Uni is hard...I really dislike my degree right now and do not see myself going into law after I finish.
This view could change, I know, but right now my heart isn't in it, it's so hard and I am really struggling, boo
In other news, in doing great in my job, have just celebrated 8 months with my boyfriend and have had a lovely Christmas
Back to manchester next week though
Ah well!!
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you all

OH MY GOODNESS!
My blog has received nearly 20,000 views?! Whattt?!
Thank you to all of those who have followed me on my journey, however I haven't posted here since December so I have a rather large update!
I am no longer at University!!!!
On January 15th 2015, my nan (who I live with when not at uni) went into hospital and had to have major surgery, she was so very ill that I consequently had to suspend my place at uni in order to come home and care for her.
So, she is well again now, she still requires assistance with some things so I'm not ready to go back to uni quite yet, however, I have until next February to decide if I am going to go back.
So right now, I have 3 jobs, I work as a support worker, going into ill people's homes and assisting them with washing, dressing, cooking, cleaning, medication etc, I work in an off-license and also a bar too.
I am still very much in love with my boyfriend and am currently saving up to move to Liverpool with him.
These past six months have been immensely hard on all areas of my life and I can't say that I always handled things well!
Even though I am no longer a uni student, please feel free to ask any questions about Freshers or anything else uni related and I will answer to the best of my ability!
I am going to try and carry on this blog since it has gained such a following and I don't want to let people down!!
Hope you're all well

Facebook groups definitely are the best way to find people.
I joined a group that was all people who were going to be living in the same halls as me and also a generic freshers group too and it helped me to find soooo many people haha
Exactly!
I didn't find my flatmates simply because I wasn't told where id be loving until move in day! But I know a lot of unis tell you in advance
