Freshers

As promised here is my blog on freshers. It was a pretty good week but I'm not gonna lie it could of been better. Exeters good for a night out, with this many students it would be hard not to be, but its a lot of small clubs and no big ones. The first week it was just so over saturated it became a bit of a nightmare. I'm used to queuing now, but I'd never queued for a club before I came here.

First night I went out with Beth and her roomies. They were all lovely, very pretty and girly but a little subdued for my liking. They thought me and Beth were hilarious with our "weird" dancing lol. They thought it was cool that we were so hyped and had lots of energy but I'm used to everyone being like that so it was a bit strange.

Luckily for me I have a pretty energetic crazy flat. Gabby being Welsh is like me when shes out and Giulia is just amazing :P. Rebecca is a little difficult cause she runs off and I've only actually been out with her for about an hour despite several attempts. Abi is doesn't come out with us in the evening and of course Syn doesn't speak to any of us lol.

Freshers started out in clubs, We hit Arena, Time Piece, Rococos...

By the end of the week we were getting to drunk off of pre-drink to make it out of the flat. For that reason Mosaic failed and so did the Lemmy. I blame ring of fire ( a lethal drinking game). First night we played I threw up on the table, although I blame Chloe cause I found out the next day she tried to feed me ham and pineapple pizza. I went to bed and when I woke up all my stuff was in the freezer, the bible is still there as a memory to the night lol.

The next night although I was still hung over at 9pm we played again (me with water). This time Rebecca got ridiculously ill. And I mean ridiculous. After hours of hysterics (she thought she was going to die lol), throwing up, crying etc. we finally got her to sleep. We kept checking on her to make sure she was still breathing though because we were genuinely worried lol. My profile picture is me and Chloe with Becca in the middle lol. We all found it pretty hilarious despite the fact she was seriously ill lol. Chloe has a video which I intend to put on Facebook at some point so you should definitely watch that.

That was the last night of freshers. We had a few days off since and watched the inbetweeners and Gavin and Stacey but we've continued to go out. Students in Exeter don't go out on the weekends so if you want to go out it has to be in the week. I mean you fall asleep in lectures but its totally worth it.

My only complaint so far is that all the club nights in Exeter are themed. I thought it was just for freshers but it seems its always like it. I kept having to buy stuff for the traffic light party and the UV party ect. and now I have to worry about a cowgirl outfit and a fairy outfit for the Geography social. It's all very expensive and a lot of effort.

Anyway that me pretty much done. How is everyone else finding the night life in their chose establishment?

  1. Exactly the same experience as you really, only we spend more time in the flat rather than going to the themed clubs.

    The giant clubs in Swansea aren't amazing though. We keep losing eachother - I've had to walk home on my own twice from Swansea because I hadn't had enough money left for a taxi.

    Ben walked home a few nights ago as well, and he got mugged :o he was left practically naked in a ditch in some woods where a farmer found him, phoned the police and they brought him home

    Anyway, yeah - I love Ring of Fire. Its our flat game; Hannah's made a poster with the rules on it :-)
