    This might sound really stingy but alcohol is good to share in the first few days. After that they can buy their own, I don't fund anyone's drinking habits.

    My current flat mate is into buying rounds, which I don't mind if there's just a couple of people but when there's five or six it gets expensive. I usually drink a fair bit before I go out so only buy one drink.

    EDIT: I only buy drinks for one person if we go out because in the grand scheme of our relationship, I probably owe him anyway.

    I bought a bottle of Southern Comfort in the end, so will share that with people if they like it.

    I am really looking forward to it now. The nerves from earlier have settled down.

    It is nerve wracking but because everyone is in the same boat it is ok. No one knows anyone, most people are homesick, so there's no shortage of people to talk to.
    Peter: So how many are there? Is it bad? Olivia: Did you eat? Peter: Yeah. Olivia: Well, that's unfortunate.

    You probably won't like everyone you meet at uni, some people are on a completely different planet. One of my friend's flatmates like to build dens in the kitchen out of the table and bedding Strange people...

    I agree with Bryan, and don't forget, you have not left home for ever, you will be back often enough

    Aw Davey wish I could come and give you a big hug, but I'll send you one instead. As everyone has said your not alone feeling like this and you will be fine. Just be careful all of you when it comes to alcohol. I know you all want to go out and party and I know I'm moaning like an old crow but please stay stafe be careful.

    Thanks to Vicky for my great new banner xxx
