Sports science (Its harder than it sounds!) you?
tries to look clever … i dont go to uni
i live in newcastle tho… well tynemouth
so are you originally from belfast, but now here in newcastle to study ?
Been there, done that. I feel OLD! Graduated earlier this year, I’m 23.
I don’t miss the last minute panics before every deadline. I do miss the girls and general randomness of it (the first year anyway)
Upsettingly I had more money when I was at uni than I do now
> so are you originally from belfast, but now here in newcastle to study ?
Correcto! It doesnt help that i have a better half still in Belfast and have to fly home at every possible occassion i can get! Not to mention decisions to move back for a crap job or stay here for a good job!

How did u manage that one! I live off 4 grand a year, my rent is £240 a month which dont leave much for the mini!
tell him to move here
do you prefer newcastle to belfast ?
He used to live here, but moved home in an attempt to get a job (final interview with renault for apprenticeship on monday!), I like newcastle as a city, but family and friends make belfast better!

Full loan and grant, and working about 30+ hours a week at halfords bumped it up (All weekend, one full weekday and at least another half a dozen hours here and there)
I lived at home and didn’t have to pay board (I was a student ) but now I’m “full time employed” 1/3rd of my wage goes on board
are you staying in sandyford/heaton with all the other students ?
i go past a mini everymorning in sandyford, its a blueish colour, seen a white one there too sometimes, either yours ?
