My cousin wants to stay in Halls over Xmas, I bet it's gonna be frigging lonely there but he wants the time to study
Anyone ever stayed alone in Halls over a holiday?

Well he's only on a 1 year course of pre-med, so he don't wanna screw it up cos his parents are paying 3 times the normal rate for the course (not being an EU Student) - plus his home is onthe other side of the world but he could come stay with us if he wanted!
Who know's what he'll do, his uni finishes on the 10th Dec and I expect almost all the other students will disappear, however the block he lives in is almost totally foreign students so I guess they'll stick around.
It's less then 2 hours on the train if he wants to come stay with us, I'm sure he'll probably come for a spell around xmas. But he's been tied to his mummy's apron strings for years, didn't even know how to iron a shirt when he went to uni so it will do him some good to spend a little time alone!
I'm staying in my house with my boyfriend until the 21st (term ends on the 10th) and returning on the 27th, because a) I wanna stay with my boyfriend and b)I have a weekend job and didn't wanna be awkward. I've not been since term began (arrived on September 25) so going home is gonna be a big change, 6 days is about long enough for me I think! Actually looking forward to it now, was dreading it at first.
Yep I did last year. It's a great time to study undisturbed and undistracted although I did go home for Christmas day itself.
