in the first week i spent most of my time sociallising with my fellow students in the halls of residence. Ive been settling in and finding my way around the city. I have been to a few clubs around the city centre, getting drunk. Ive been shopping for food and other essential items that i bneed in my flat. Ive been waiting for my loan to come through so that i can get myself a laptop and tv for my room.
