Fresher's week: Day 3

Posting this a day late because I'm awesome like that! This covers the events of Monday October 1st.

Well, the very first thing that happened was at 6:30 in the morning. I'm woken up by my phone alarm. I think to myself "Huh, it's still dark outside, why's my phone going off?" I then wonder, "This isn't my alarm ringtone, this is some strange wailing sound, what's happening?" THEN I wonder, "This is much too loud to be my alarm phone." THEN I think, "SHIT FIRE ALARM SCRAMBLE SCRAMBLE!!"

It was indeed a fire drill, which there was absolutely no warning for in advance. Naturally, everyone was pissed off, but everyone running outside in their pj's and dressing gowns and duvet's was certainly an interesting experience!

The rest of day wasn't the most interesting of days, I had nearly 5 hours worth of talks from various members of staff on various topics, including police, medical, fire safety (har har) and stuff to do with my actual course, which meant I met people doing the exact same modules as me! Including someone who plays Killer Bunnies. Hell yeah.

That evening, there was a massive board game sesh in the common room, in which I played Munchkin Cthulu (I lost) and Fluxx (I lost). We then all had a MASSIVE game of Mafia, in which I was lynched by the mob in the second round, for no reason other than I had a space invaders t-shirt on!

Despite my absolute failures, I had a hell of a lot of fun, the most I've had at freshers week so far! Would choose this over a night club any day!

So yeah, that was yesterday. Will hopefully post again tonight about today's events, although it's looking to be rather dull so far. But hey, maybe I'll be surprised. :)

Until then.
