what type of bugs?
I have tons on my PC



I'm a geek, but close enough.


I brought new stationary, books and everything for the new academic year. Sat down, opened my books for two seconds and closed them back again. :lol:
Life's too short to just spend it studying and working, hence why I'm doing p*ss all this summer, other than some part-time work once every week/two weeks

Yeah, it's highly useful especially if you don't have a particular AS/A2 they advise to have e.g. further maths for physics and engineering.

I already covered all of C3 this month and next month gonna do C4 and FP1, so when I start in September it will all just be revision; maybe I'll be able to get an A* :biggrin:


Smart people confuse me...

I wonder what subject you're doing. That hasn't been my experience at all in regards to the summer reading. Although I totally agree with you node the OP is at uni. Not saying you're wrong but it's something I haven't really thought about in terms of doing well.

I'm not saying you can't do well if you don't do the basic reading in summer, but I find that if I get all of the core reading out of the way as quickly as possible, I can then go much deeper into the topics during the term and it also reduces the intensity of revision I need to do come exam time. My friends all think I'm crazy though, so I know this isn't a popular way of doing things hahaha.

Many people had been saying the uni accommodations is absolutely horrendous and full of bugs -_-


I heard Taylor Courts accommodation was supposedly not up to standard, but the rest of Hulls accommodation is really good especially The Lawns.

At least it gives you a genuine excuse for having no life. My excuse is that I like my sleep. :/

I'm jealous of you, I can't sleep for more than 5 hours. At first I was studying or BMAT and asked my parents for £60 for it, but now u cba to do it... and I cba to do sports either or anything.
I'm doing some reading before my course starts because I've never studied either subject before and also because I'm keen to get started.
