St Andrews - Ask A Current Student Thread

Don't worry Mbm, I said a central hall preferably and also drew a smiley face.

(If the editions haven't changed Dali, then i'm definatly interested in the economics books.)

I have a question :biggrin:

What are the music facilities like? If there are any at all that is :confused:

There is a student music centre in the middle of the town. You can book rooms to practice in. Apparently there are a lot of student bands.

Long lie-ins won't be a problem for you, then. I'm pretty sure they're both taught in the afternoon :wink:

Jammy...I had to take science subjects with a 9am start time, didn't I? Ugh...I'm NOT a morning person :mad:

No problem, you can have it. It's hardly been opened :biggrin:

Like I said, I never went to my microeconomics class, so I only ever opened it a couple of times when I had to blag to my parents about what types of things we were doing in the class :rolleyes:

(they don't know I never went to it - they just think I failed the exam :redface:

Well, that's what this topic was made for :biggrin:

The music facilities are all located in Younger Hall, over on the east side of town. Although I've not seen much of them, what I have seen of them has been pretty impressive :smile:

One of my friends joined one of the choirs last year, so I gave him a little pep talk as I walked him to his audition. Poor wittle baby wouldn't go on his own and needed someone to hold his hand :p:

He was more out of tune than the piano, if that's any incentive :biggrin:

Thanks a lot both of you... :musicus:

Sounds like I can keep on playing then at least until someone hears me :biggrin:

I've promised myself one thing when I go to uni, that I will try and learn two rare instruments.

So far i'm aiming for the harmonica for the first one. The second one i'm not sure on.....

Violin and harmonica duet anyone? (If can manage to be able to play one)

Reply 826

Sorry can't help you there but if you can extend that invitation to piano count me in.. :biggrin:

Harmonica ay..that sounds challenging..I've decided to try a new sport of some kind, I haven't decided on which yet though.. :p:

Reply 827

Anything that sounds good with a harmonica (I just pray I can play it properly!)

Yay Parrotman, I'm glad you drew a smiley face too! :smile:

Good luck on exams everyone!!

Reply 829

When are you all takning your exams?

Reply 830

How about flute and harmonica, Parrotman? Actually, no...that'd sound pretty terrible :biggrin:

I'm not really too sure what would go quite well in a duet with a harmonica. Yeah, violin's probably the best thing (I can't help you there - I'm useless with stringed instruments :p:

)

Bah, just got kicked out of the living room because my mum "doesn't approve" of having shows related to gambling on the TV (I was watching a poker programme :biggrin:

). I wanted to see Jennifer Harman :frown:

She's cute :love:

Well life is hard you know :smile:

. I am trying to keep clear of my parents cause they want me to cut the grass :p:

, which I hate.

Reply 833

I'm trying to avoid filling out some job applications, but I know I'll have to do them eventually...my parents are determined that I'm not going to be sitting in my room for the next four months like I did last year :biggrin:

Reply 834

Harmonica sounds good with brass instruments so i'm told. We shall see if I actually follow ahead this impulse.

Ankan: I've had two allready, i'll be having the rest after next week over a two week period.

Mbm: :smile:

it's all about the smiley faces

parrotman, ever tried the ocarina?? A bizzare instrument.

urgh are you all musical? i'm yuck at music.

exams start 13 finish 21. i'm so tired already!

Good luck all!

when do you all find results out?

Reply 836

Standard A level results day for me, mine have allready started, but the main session starts on the 5th, and ends on the 26th.

I'm not musical at all, as in I love music, but I only have a clarinet which I gave up due to lack of time. I plan to learn that again when I have spare time at uni.
