Hiya,

I'm moving in on the 16th, i'm excited but rather nervous about who i'll be sharing with! I'm sure it'll be fine though! I know Manchester really well so that part wont be a problem.

I just hope hope hope i'll be living with/near people i'll get on with!

I know whitefield, i have friends scattered about round there and prestwitch. But to b honest i neva really know where they both begin or end, i just get confused with them both! lol But yeh i know them!
Im not sure bout the room number, ill have to find my sheet with it on! What college did u go to? I went to Holy Cross! x x
Have no idea which floor im on, but my room is C127.
Is the bbq meant to be on the 9th? i reckon satarday will be a pretty quiet night cos no one will no each other, im probs just gonna try my luck in the pub downstairs.

My room's C135 so that can't be far from you Charlie!
The BBQ is on the 16th. Last year there was almost nobody in the SV until the 16th.

they know me at 5th av! quite bad i know, but it really just amazing, i would encourage anyone to go there, cheap drink and perfect music. to be honest im not worrying about anything apart from the making friends thing. i probably should think about how im going to afford food and whether il be able to cope with my course! but no il jus worry about having a social life for now and think about the other stuff when i have to!! i think im on the fourth floor aswel which could be a struggle with my shopping bags, or my drunken-ness!! x x

I think im on the 5th floor, oh god that will cause some problems if im drunk! If you wake up one morning and find some random girl asleep on the third floor stairs, it may be me (i would have given up and thought sack it) lol
Im not worried about makin friends, i was always that kid when you were little who use to go up to people and say "hi im claire what's your name" lol

ha! i think i was when i was young! but now it takes me a while to show people the full me, but i gues il jus hav to go for it n act daft from the start. im a bit worried because i sing all the time. like all the time. like im singing now! my friends and family are just about used to it, but imagine if i dont get on with my flatmates n i was singing very loud. i think i may get on their nerves :smile: oh well! cant be helped! i hope u settle into uni, i cant see there bein a problem there tho! x x
There is nothing wrong with a good sing song! But if i hear somone randomly singin at the bbq il know who it is! lol
I hope i get settled in too! I hope u do actually! lol Im sure you will be fine, just dont worry about it, just think of it as making new m8s, thats what i keep tellin myself. Its strange though cos my friends are all going to lancaster n think il be all on my own cos im goin mmu like "independantly", maybe they are just scared of goin on their own lol ??? :p:

by coincidence (i think thts how u spell it) 3 of my close friends are going to man met. ones living away and the other 2 r at home. i plan to stay in touch because there amazing and i dont want to lose them, but i didnt do it purposely and i wana like make new friends aswel. i am actually glad that theres someone there i know tho, just incase i turn out to be the billy no mates of the student village, my other friends are there. but i really do want to make new friends! ahh! isnt it scary!! im sure we will make new friends tho, uv just got to go for it on the first day i think. my main worry is that i wont get on with the people i live with, i cant imagine me making no friends at all (i am touching wood now so that it doesnt happen) but i just hope the 3 or 4 people i share my flat with i get on with n can hav a laugh with, i gues its not the be all and end all. i keep forgetting the main reason im going to uni is to become a teacher, haha all this socialising lark is getting in the way x x

You'll b fine, i have some m8s goin to man met, but they are commuting, i have one lad m8 who've ive known since primary skool who is staying in the student village which is kewl. N i know a few ppl at manchester uni in the 2nd year. But i know ill be orite making new friends, it was just like when i started college n i came out of that with some great new m8s, so hopefully it wil all be good :biggrin:
haha your on the 5th floor also. So when I see a drunk bird passed out in the corridor il know who it is!

The only thing im worried about is lugging my stuff up 5 flights of stairs because on the 16th there will be so many people moving in there will be a fight for the lift.

You can always tell the freshers in the first few weeks as they run around like headless chickens so excited to be let loose from school/parents/rules etc. Anyways good luck and enjoy the year as the courses are generally so easy its a year for partys and not alot else.

Also Charlieholden last year I met a total of 0 people from the South West . Im orginally from Bath and most people havnt even heard of it before. :biggrin:
