    Ya im doin it too it was a laugh last year. The only problem is the money you earn during the week is spent on drink before the week is finished.

    Hasn't everyone?? Well you better get your drinking caps on so that you are ready for a BULBS in week 1 or 2... and no excuses this time round... or I might bet ban-happy!!! Be warned :D

    :D None of us can wait. This place is so dead over the summer. And in about 6 weeks some new crowd are gonna come and kick us out of our lab :(

    440Hz, I think a month long binge will be in order when I get this thesis done, so a BULBs session would fit in nicely there :cool:

    I'm doing what I did last year - SU guide...all the benefits of orientation guide, minus the trekking about campus! except my voice was hoarse by wednesday, reduced to a husky whisper by lunchtime thursday, and inaudible by thursday evening. I lost it entirely. But definitely worth it! :D hip-hip hooray for first years!

    There's only one of me! Well, there are 2 of us doing it this year, but we'll both be around at the same time! But I was the only one doing it last year, hence the lack of voice by the end of the three days! :p

    Nope not at all.... the only people here who have met are those that showed up to beers last year.

    rmacm, kaimera, peteeee, otacon, vuk, mossin all live together. sceptre is in the same course as most of those and well I just kinda bumped into them. we met fast_mover and nukem through beers, along with incisor (who I knew already) thats it!! noone else knows anyone afaik.. so come along to the beers and meet us, we are all fairly normal. check out the picture sticky if you dont believe me, and keep an eye around campus

    I know nobody :(

    So there's 6 of us all togetherthat should be enough to spread the boardsie message further. And for god sake people tell your freshers that they should never EVER buy books thats what the library is for.
