    See there's our first problem. I applied to both in two separate applications. To be honest, I'd take either but I'd prefer Larkfield. Just wait and see I guess :pac: :eek:

    Why would you prefer to live in Larkfield? Rooms are tiny

    Purely cos it's all first years. I don't wanna be surrounded by third years.

    Valid point I suppose, but you'll more then likely be surrounded by them any way

    Nothing wrong with them (ye) but I'd just prefer to be surrounded by people my own age.

    Just remember, a lot of new people in college don't take it seriously so be sure not to get distracted by them. I personally wouldn't take Larkfield as there are plenty of places to go to meet up with first years.

    ( I am not putting down all first years, i am merely saying that there are a lot of them who just party all day and night and don't realise that there is actually work to be done in college . . . . . . . . . unless you're doing arts, in that case you may fail if you don't party all day*. )


    *may not be true.

    Oh like I know there's two sides to the boat, I've a sensible head on my shoulders.

    Well lets hope your shoulders arn't too big because you wont fit into Larkfield.

    Have you seen the rooms ? I swear, caged animals have more room.

    You never know, some people might have declined theirs?

    I agree with that last point though, he's very critical about it!!

    It's tiny. They can't be safe.

    Plus, there is a tale going around that there is a very very very strong radioactive source buried around Larkfield.

    Just letting you all know that now. Don't be complaining to thecornflake if you end up glowing in the dark.

    Nope, did you? Maybe only the people that got that are getting emails so far?

    Got that email too, ah well, someone might cancel :/

    I'm not sure where to apply to be honest, I applied to Shanowen a week or two ago as a backup, so glad I did now :/

    Actually try Shanowen, I'm sure people just put their names down in case they didn't get campus, and some might cancel now.
