Though was walking down the corridor and said hi to this guy I started talking to about how interesting the number 1,729 is when he was waiting in a queue and I was slightly drunk.
A - B - Me
And B was facing A, so it was hard to get a word in. I spoke to someone else later on and we had a chat but then he had to go, and I didnt seem to click with anyone. I've been alright in social situations (bars, kitchens) just in the lecture hall... seemed like everyone had gone with 'a friend'. Poopsickle.
I've met this nice lass tho and am trying to see if I can get rid of this nasty woman in my accomodation replaced with her
I've just been trying to latch on to people in my seminar group on the way in and sit with them..
Don't have any seminars until term 2. Before then I have tutorial sessions!! Which is either 1 on 1 or 2 on 1.
I will have to start talking outside the lecture hall, yea... I saw a girl outside that I spoke to for 5 minutes and she asked me to walk her somewhere jokily so I did but then you could tell when she was saying 'you dont have to walk me you know' that she wanted to get rid of me. Cheek of it.
:eek: My best friend is a physicist and he puts away more alcohol in a night than I do in a term! And I have other physicist friends, none of whom are weedy lightweight geeks... but they're not exactly hardworking either.
Well, when they're walking a few feet ahead of you and looking at their phone constantly and not talking to you and then saying 'you dont have to walk me if you dont want to' even I get the hint .
Sorry, I'm turning thesite into my personal blog. That's why I need a newspaper column, to rant about crap!
Yeah you're missing out loads but on good and bad stuff.
Like spending the night freezing outside the halls in your PJ's cos someone set off the fire alarm (actually that's a good thing depends on what the girls in halls have on :thumb: )
Flat mates that play heavy metal at 2am
The Irish Girl that lives inthe flat below you screaming "Oh My God" every single day at 4am
you would be supprised.
I graduated with a physics degree this year, while there are those who are complete stereotypical social retards, the majority of my course were fun loving outgoing people, and we did indeed party hard...
never mind the fact that one of the best freinds I made at uni, not only was he studying physics, but also played for the university's hocky first team and was hence a rather heavy drinker
so don't judge people by their course till you get to know them
indeed.
my ex boyfriend did maths and computing at university and is now a fully fledged maths teacher. and he's not a geek at all. come the weekend he's watching/playing football and drinking beer like the rest of them.
when my sister met her boyfriend of 4 years he told her he was a sports science student (he was at luff so it was believeable) but really he was an engineering student. she wouldn't have been bothered either way but sometimes people can judge you on the course you do.
Yep, same at college as well as Uni's. Beauty/Hairdressing are all whores, with no brains in their bleach blonde heads of course :rolleyes:. Same as the theory around here that all Sports science are geeks, the Art students are all Emo/depressed..... it's a load of rubbish.
I do find though, it's mainly people who aren't at the college (e.g people who left school to work, or go to their schools sixth form) who generalise (not that theres anyhting wrong with what they chose to do after school!)
no, believe it or not there are more than 1 uni doing that degree.
i'm at lincoln uni.
Really?? Ah well, long shot
when i tell people i did french theyre like 'oh really :crazyeyes i hated french at school! or the boys say 'can you speak french to me and try to impress me with the one phrase they know.
i've never heard of it being seen as a doss subject! most people tend to think it must be quite interesting but they generally assume it's all forensic detective stuff but it's not. eta: i can assure you it's not a doss subject at all.
media tends to be seen as a dossers subject from what i know. i live with a few media production students and i do take the piss (they're all 3rd years and 1 of them had to ask me how to take out a library book the other day!). they do work hard, it's just more of their work is practical and they don't spend a lot of time in the library.
chemical engineering makes me think of people in lab coats who are quite clever.
