-high five- Where abouts?

Manchester's my firm and Leeds is my insurance :smile:

I see you'll be at Sheffield! I really liked it there but they hardly did anything by way of environmental chemistry :frown:
This is a really great idea for a thread. A non-drinker starting medicine at SGUL or imperial in September (probably SGUL) :smile: This will be my second alcohol free freshers.

Dear lord, that sounds dull. :yawn: I remember energy pyramids and eutrophication and suchlike. :sigh:

Trust me, there is very little to look forward to in the study of energy flows...


Rest of it is interesting though :yep:

especially the applications of genetics :love:

Hey everyone :smile: so glad I've found this thread - I was worried I would be the one person who was nervous about the whole clubbing/drinking thing at uni! I've firmed Royal Holloway btw :smile: x


oh yer i think i saw you on the roho thread :biggrin: what you studying? :smile:

best thing bout holloway is that it isnt known for its drinking... people think thats a negative but it most certainly isnt!!

royal holloway, hopefully... although my grades so far dont look promising :/


Aw I'm sure you will be fine! :smile: what's your insurance?
I do actually drink fairly often and enjoy getting drunk but I also love having nights in with good friends and drinking coke. I'd definitely like to make friends with people who don't use drinking as a kind of social crutch haha. Do I qualify for this thread at all? :wink:

everyone goes for Endcliffe. When you tell people you're at Ranmoor they assume you're an Endcliffe reject, even if you're not. It can get very dead here if you're staying over the easter/ Xmas hols.

Edit: we do have some amazing societies. If you play an instrument, the Medics Orchestra needs you!


How much of a difference is there between them? I wouldn't mind if it's a bit quiet though tbh, I'd go home in the holidays and it might be nice to have a bit of peace!

not much difference between them to be honest. More events on at endcliffe rather than ranmoor.

2013 entry hopefully, to study German and History :smile:

Obviously there's still the chance for me to ruin my exams and subsequently have to settle for 2014 entry haha
