Durham General Chat Thread

Wow.. I am slightly bitter at the fact that none of my departments ever give me loads of money or placements, but well done. You must be immense!!

I got given 3000 pounds as a bursary by the university, it's a hard life.

Nice one!

Haha, I do English. No placements for me. On the upside, I might get to be a struggling playwright after leaving uni. YES!

Who needs money, anyway. It only buys material things like cars, houses, love and happiness.

My former housemate is an English student and she's made sure she won't be jobless by doing loooooads of work experience.

Would you say the bursary is enough to equalise it to the costs of a year t'Durham??

This will be a job in one of the UK's most prestigious law firms. *salivates*

Very few degree subject material has any use in the real world, outside of academia.

Well done P.P.!
Btw is the freshers play at Durham a big deal?

well done PP.

on other news, saw robbie "riding" his bike up Gilesgate today, briefly pausing to partake in the embibement of a beverage.

Why do you ask about the play?
I don't think it's that big of a deal, but I'm not one of those theatre-types, so I couldn't really say.

Well done but ew, law.

I'm doing the costumes, hair and make-up for it and was just wondering if it was the kind of thing that EVERYONE goes to and is taken really seriously or not! Kind of stressed at the moment so I'm hoping that it's not taken too seriously!!!
