    Part of the fun of freshers week is bein lost. Dinna worry lads and lassies, it's overwhelming in a good way! Just have your list of what you GOTTA do (register, meet tutor etc.) and your timetable of what stuff is on. I said before go to as many of the latter as possible: live bands, clubs, comedians and booze booze booze. Oh to be a fresher again and do it all.. I'm so jealous. Feck it I'm goin in masquerading. Yis'll see me walkin around looking lost, deaf n hungover with unexplained glitter on my knees...

    Oh yeah so my point is we'd just wreck it for yas if we told ya everythin. It's more fun findin out for urself. When I discovered the JCR (about january!) I was so proud of myself...

    Lets leave this meetin for a few weeks IMO. Cos we're still pretty much strangers..

    yeah it does, in the junior commons room(if i recall its name) , just go off to the right near the counter of the JCR and then take a left.......

    JCR is a cafitera type place in goldsmith hall(beside pearse street dart station) , does rolls n sambo's, no hot food...fairly cheap.

    They do do hot food. You've obviously never had a dead pig (aka heart attack roll).

    Dead Pig is the only way to go. Pool tables in the back, where the old smoking room was. Some times bands play there as part of durns. Risk tournaments and table quizs are also held in there. I usually play pool in there on fridays that I don't have labs instead of studying.

    I've heard talk of better food being brought into the JCR. And nicer rolls (the bread they use is pants). I'm just wondering what will everyone call the smoking room now? The back room just doesn't have the same ring to it

    no no no, it has a better ring if you think of it being smokin'! As in something Will Smith would have said about something cool circa 1992. Not as in cancer death stick of doom.

    Not really on topic but I'll reply in-anyway. :)
    From what I've heard it's some sort of spiritual/meditation thing. The reason it has gained such world wide following is because of it's oppression in china. The decreed it a vicious and evil cult and imprison people for practising it. I think some trinity student got imprisoned for it so there was obvious uproar..

    Er.. you gotta remember that it was the Maoists that declared it as such.. They teach that the world is flat too so I wouldn't take their opinion to seriously..
    I would have no such negative opinions of it, it aint a religion no more than yoga is tho there's less bending. There'd be a lot of chinese students doing it..

    Skylynx, all I'll say is Fresh Prince. I'd forgotten how funny it was until BBC2 started showing it ad nauseum lately.

    Anyone see Six Degrees of Separation? I never had any respect for Will Smith until I saw that film. An amazing piece of work (also has donald sutherland in it and a couple of other familiar faces).
