Aberystwyth University freshers 2020

when I studied my first degree there was a girl in my halls that didnt drink and she still had fun! nobody as far as I know judged her for it as it's your own personal choice.
best advice I can give is dont feel pressured to do anything you dont want to do and dont forget you dont need to drink to have fun!
some of my favourite memories from uni / freshers are sober ones!

I don’t drink either, so you definitely won’t be the only one.

Are you there already or applying for uni?

Applied for September (2020/21). I’m Unconditional Firm.

What course are you doing?

Film & television studies/ drama & theatre. & staying in Fferm Penglais. Have you got your accommodation yet

No not yet hopin to get into fferm are you on the Facebook and Snapchat group by any chance?

Studying International Politics staying in Fferm Penglais looking forward to September!

I wouldn't worry too much! I do drink but definitely not as much as most of my friends.

Your bank account will be thanking you when you're not eating beans on toast for the rest of the month

So happy I just found this thread! I don't drink either and thought I wouldve been one of the only ones ahah, I'm staying in fferm penglais and studying filmmaking 😊

Yeah there are some I'm in there if you want to join that the reason I wrote this thread as all seem to be talking about getting drunk whilst no one talked about sober stuff

I guess it’s what a lot of people think of when they think of freshers & uni. It’s great that you started this thread so those of us that don’t can get to know each other

I don't drink either! I was also worried about freshers as I always get asked about why I don't drink hah. So glad to see that there are others the same
