Hi guys,
As title states, all 6 of my flatmates are chinese and also are about 23/24 and have been friends for years (eg: only have one set of cooking stuff as they all eat together). I mean they are really nice but its just obvious we arent going to be best mates. Im in private halls anyway as my uni (kings) didnt give me accomodation so theres not really anyone there that goes to kings. I dont know anyone in london, and whilst i have made a big effort and met a few people i havent got anyone id call friends. I kinda feel like im wasting freshers as i havent been out yet, but obviously dont want to go out by myself. Not sure whether to get facebook or not as it seems a good way of meeting people but i guess im going to look weird as i wont have any friends on it.
Anyway, I know im rambling a bit here but any advice or thoughts would be really appreciated. The accomodation is really expensive as well and one of the reasons i was happy to splash out was i thought id get a better social experience than living way out in a house for 1st year.
