"Stuff to take to Uni"

Hi, I was just wandering from anyone at uni or going there soon what gadgets theyve taken to kill time, in between lectures and drunken madness:)

Im thinking of taking my xbox with one of those small LCD Tvs to play occasionaly when I have an hour or so to kill during the day. Is anyone else taking one or do you think that there wont be a time for a games console and it may simply interfere with things and be 'anti social'.

Cheers:)

More worse...

I'm moving tomorrow.
I should really pack some more things to together.

An hours alright, alot of the people i knew at uni were 3-4 hours away from their partners so it was meant they had less time together at weekends and such.

Just over an hour I believe, I'm in London at the moment, but I'll be moving to Southampton. Could be ten times worse I suppose and I understand where you're coming from so don't worry :p Will be a good test for us if you ask me, if it doesn't last then it's not meant to be.

Don't get me wrong i hope you manage to keep it all good, but i thought i should say it just incase someone else haddn't. Are you moving far? or is it quite close still like a hour by train?

Pretty much what everyone has said to me when they enquire about what she is doing whilst I'm away. I'm just hoping she sorts herself out with a full time job soon, she can't keep working part time hours or she'll be besides herself what to do half the time. Been together for over two and a half years now so I'm hoping its a solid enough foundation to make it out at the other end.

Meah all we needed in halls was an N64 + goldeneye + mariokart + beer tokens, First couple of years sorted!
I'd take a console at the least, good multiplayer action is fun in halls and saves a few beans if you can't afford to go out every night.

That's what I worry about.

On that first day I can imagine my parents talking to other peoples parents in the kitchen and not going away, so all of us will be just standing around trying to get to know each other without the parent intervention.

There's a list at the studential website that I used... I'm self-catered so I have to take a bit more than the usual student.

Thats it, just make him feel more worse than he already does!
