Day three in the big college house...

This post comes to you from a computer room in college. Freshers is going very well indeed so far, though there's a lot- a LOT - to remember. Already been to a couple of parties, got to know plenty of people, visited vital locations like the library, the bar, the computer room, the bar, and so on. Also the bar. I've been completely converted to dancing, even if I do look like a spastic giraffe on speed, due to said parties (without having drunk alcohol first, amazingly enough). I'm meaning to get down to the societies fair later, and spy out a few. The Assasins looks enjoyably wierd, whilst I also quite like the look of fencing. Also several others, but I'm going to have to limit the amout I join, since the workload here promises to be quite heavy; typically a 40-hour week is what i've been hearing. Fortunately, being a science student only about 12 of those is work outside of lectures, practicals, tutorials and so on, so i don't need quite as much self-discipline as the arts people do. Nevertheless...
I haven't actually biked anywhere yet; since I've arrived I haven't left college grounds. Anywhere else that might be a bit sad, but here that's not so unusual, due to our handy placement mile from anywhere else. I probably will later, however. Hopefully i won't fall off; members of the college keep reminding us about one of last years freshers who was hit and killed bking down the road from here.
We've repeatedly over the last two days been told the blindingly obvious; don't do drugs, don't get so drunk you start damaging things, don't get run over...
There's a cat here, which is nice. So far as I can tell it does nothing but lie on a chair by the entrance fast asleep. It's about as lively as a brick, but still, a cat is a nice thing to have around.
Anyway, I need to go and do something vaguely sociable, so that's it for now.
