Oh boy. Picture this:

You've just moved into your university accommodation (during covid). I meet my flatmates for the first time and we organise some welcome drinks and board games in the kitchen. One of the flatmates had never drunk before and didn't know their limits yet so ofc they accidently had too much despite us telling them to go easy, and he didn't have to impress us, ignored us anyway.

Long story short one of my flatmates ended up calling 999 for the ambulance. Me and another flatmate who hadn't been drinking went to flag down the ambulance because the ambulance got lost, because it our student accommodation was a bit of a maze. Another flatmate who knew a bit of first aid stayed with flatmate to look after them, and called their parents who were thankfully still in the area. Flatmate was ok though.

- still remember going back to clear out my uni accomm after lockdown lifted and went to sort the kitchen out, and in my kitchen cupboards I'd completely forgotten about some potatoes which had sprouted into a mini tree :rofl: :lol:

- things still weren't quite back to normal on the last evening of living in my first year accomm, so we ended up going on an evening walk to plant my potatoes in a nearby forest :hide:

- one of my flatmates initiations for one of the sports societies was ridiculous. Think it was something like having to sing the Welsh national anthem using a leek (spoiler: he did not know any Welsh :nah: ).
