University of Southampton non-drinking freshers 2013

Hey people nice to see a few of you out there, would be nice to meet you all, im staying at liberty point and studying geology, what about you guys?

I'm also doing Geology. A Mature Student, and a Mum of a 3 year old. I'm just coming down for the Admin day at the NOC tomorrow, just to get myself signed in etc, so I'm not there for all the Freshers stuff that goes on, because I'm living out obviously. So I'll just go for the Admin Day, then shoot off home, and be ready to start afresh on Monday. It'll be good to see you at the NOC.

I've been trying to reply to this post for ages XD
Apparently my password for EmilyT1994 has magically changed, and I keep getting frozen out and then the 'forgotten password' thing doesn't even work, so I bit the bullet and made a new account!
But anyway, I'm a non-drinker too studying BSc marine biology and oceanography.
Were you at the NOC yesterday? I noticed there were a few geologists.
It didn't go too well haha, I'm just way too shy for all of this mingling.
So I would love to meet up, we could do it after lectures one day next week if we can find a day that everyone can do?
I'm living on my own anyway because I'm from Southampton and living at the family home in Bitterne, so I'm finding it difficult to make friends too.

Awesome! where are you coming from and how are you getting there? If you dont mind me asking. I look forward to meeting you

I'll be coming down from Oxford first thing in the morning, just coming down for the day to go through all the admin stuff in readiness for starting properly on Monday.

I live in Bitterne as well! I thought I was the only one :0

Hello nice to meet you, and geology induction is tomorrow I believe, maybe they split up the groups? I'm not sure. im sure we could sort something out to do with meeting up, anyway nice to see there are people like me out there haha

Haha I thought I was the only one too XD
How are you finding getting to uni? Bit of a trek isn't it?
I think the unilink buses should cover bitterne too, but there's probably just not enough people to warrant it =(

Where will you be staying from Monday onwards?

Getting to uni is indeed a bit of a trek! The travel time on buses is also a pain (I haven't even experienced the dreaded peak times yet) and makes joining societies/doing uni stuff like attending the Union Cinema a lot harder, seeing as we'd probably get home late during risky hours. No fun if you've got a 9am start >.<

I think you're right about the lack of students from Bitterne. It seems to be the only reason why the company wouldn't cover the area
