Arriving at Portsmouth, Pt. 2

So the buses are becoming real drags on my attitude to University life. It still bugs me how I have to travel miles along with other poor sods whilst those lucky people in the city centre leave their rooms five minutes before lectures.

But anyway. I'm still really enjoying the course. The amount of writing I'm doing is copious and I'm enjoying writing every single piece. I have two Assessments due very soon but I'm keeping on top of it and therefore giving myself more time to plan for further Assessments. I have a test soon, gulp.

I'm also cooking good meals now. Being in part catered halls means I have the rare opportunity to cook aside from weekends. So I savour the moment and go all out in effort; i.e. buying the ingredients and enjoying cooking each meal. I've also taken a massive liking to my favourite meat, Gammon. One of the big perks of cooking for yourself - you can eat what you like! Which does honestly mean I've eaten some Pot Noodles on occasions, but not too many.

I've yet to make ANY of the cocktails I've got up on my wall. I bought a humongous poster during the Fresher's Fayre which has pictures of cocktails of all different varieties. I do eventually plan on making one. I'll tell you when I do. It'll probably excite me more than anyone else..

Clubbing is amazing in Portsmouth, especially when you have spontaneous housemates. Before Uni I would never have agreed to go out a day before or rarely even an hour before, but I love it. And Portsmouth has everything. Bars, pubs, clubs and pub-clubs (you know, those pubs that play club music and have a dance floor, and are then there for you the next day holding a bacon sandwich to cure your hangover).
