Suffering from imposter syndrome; more apprehensive than excited.
It's all actually starting to sink in, now that we're getting emails with course details, first week timetable etc.
Anyway, I'll be the guy in his 30s looking like he's made a huge mistake; keep an eye out! :lol:

Am I right to assume it wasn't your first choice? If so what were the order of your choices, if I may ask?

Hey man, I'm in Waverley house (it was my second choice). Are you (or anyone else) buying a freshers week wristband?

I'm now copy and pasting this for my own sanity. :P Having already been through freshers my advice is:

1. Wait until you arrive at Bristol

2. Look at what everyone else is doing

3. (a) Buy a Union wristband if everyone else has one, or

3. (b) Buy individual entry to the events everyone else is doing

4. End up at an event that your flatmates are at; neither having wasted money on an unused ticket nor gone to a club alone.

oh so would you genuinely suggest not buying a wristband? will they not sell out?

No it's just a marketing trick to get you to buy them.

Pharmacology
Biochemistry
Anatomy
Psychology

If I don't get either of the first two, it'll change the direction of my course considerably. No pressure, or anything!
What about you?
