Going to College!!!

[nejcdolinsek]

Alright people... listen up:

I'm going to college in the UK this year, and I'd really like to hear some tips for college, and how life is as a college student. I'd especially like to hear from people from the UK...

Is college really the best time of your life? I've heard that many times by now....

Fire away!

P.S.: If you have any interesting stories, please share!

The best time of life is actually hs..back when you have not a care in the world. Though college is a step up from the real world of work.. lol.

Unless you have rich parents get use to living off cheap food and going to events just because of the free food.

One thing i would say is distrust your landlord, hassle them until they do what they say they will!!

I'd say its better than school because you are forced to meet loads of new people, school well unless you move about you have a tendancy to be comfortable with a certain group you've grown up with, uni especially if far away is great for just finding out how many different people there are!
One good tip for you ASDA Smart Price

Tip number 2 never leave your ground floor window open all night Drunk people have a tendancy to throw things through it, my mate sam got a whole bush from the courtyard through his window while we were in there at 4am, funniest thing ever to 2 drunkards sat there, not for sam tho whose bed said bush had landed on Seriously though i hope you find the majority of brits nice, still get the ignorant pricks though alot of those drop out fairly early

ASDA are owned by wallmart, and are the cheapest supermarket generally, smart price is there budget range, 20p packets of rice etc
