The Life of Billy

Dream-like musings and fantasies while awake.

Because I’m Too Tired To Write A Real Post…

I don’t think I thought about university life enough before it actually began for me.  Some of the things I have learned so far have been quite shocking.  Here’s the shortlist, for your enjoyment.

1) The washing machines cost £1.60 to use, but don’t take 10p coins.  How ridiculous is that?

2) My sense of humour is not shared by, erm, anyone.

3) They say people aren’t allowed to sleep on your bedroom floor, but they don’t really mean it.

4) It does, in fact, take more than one pot to cook a meal.

5) It’s actually relatively easy to go to bed at 3am and get up for 9am…but, why bother, when you could just stay awake all night?

6) What Mr B said all those months ago was true.  Making friends at uni is easy. 

7) Everyone now thinks I’m an arrogant student, no matter how many times I tell them that I know as little now as I did a month ago.  I think I’ll just start playing to this stereotype, you know.

8) Fresher’s week is totally pointless…and the word “freshers” is really annoying.  When somebody asks me, “Are you a fresher?”, I make a voodoo doll with their face on it, and stick pins in its eyes.

9) Be careful when crossing the road in Belfast.  It’s not like being in the country, you know.

10) City lights make it difficult to sleep.  I need black-out curtains.
