Didn't get campus place - need people to move in with

    Right, I check my gmail to find an email titled "Rejected" from NUIM. It seemed a harsh way to tell me I didn't win a place on campus. Well anyway, I had been hoping to get a campus place, as I don't know anyone else in the Uni, so now its time to start looking for somewhere to move, and quicker the better I suppose. Now, I'm on my own, and I'm sure there must be others in the same position, so I'm going to take the bold statement of pretty much spelling out a personal ad in the hope of finding a few roommates. Forgive me if this is toe curlingly cringeworthy and longwinded. But why not, I suppose. Might be worth it.

    To start at the beginning...
    I am male, 20. Swinging in from Greystones, Wicklow. Just took a deferral year before going into first year in Biotechnology. Don't particularly care about the age of the people I move in with, but obviously would prefer to be staying with students rather than some professionals. A music fiend and member of Oink.cd (formerly oink.me.uk). Music & films in abundance. Would be interested in buying in Irish Broadband [symmetric, for BT :D) for the house.
    I don't mind smokers, though im not one myself.
    If anyone is interested in teaming up to get a place or have a group looking for one more, please give me an email. I don't know why a boards.ie users would be necessarily better to move in with, but it seems more pleasant than just moving in to some place [dare i use the cliché] randomly.

    Anyway, email is dynamic.manipulation@gmail.com

    Cheers

    Ah you'll be ok travelling from Greystones for the first while, if you need a couch to crash on a few times 'til you've got a place to live, gimme a shout 'cause I'm only in Leixlip and the mother is used to me bringing home randomers (in a non slutty way, of course)
