Day 6 already!?!?

Hey guys, im sorry for not blogging at all over the last few days but ive been SO busy. BillMo lays activities on for us day and night. So far the highlight was when we had a girls v boys night and we split into groups and then chanted things at each other. It was really funny! The union is so big, i really dont think ive ever seen so many people in my life-its very overwhelming. As well, the campus is really huge so I haven't ventured very far yet. I think that as lectures start tomorrow (booo) things will probably calm down, especially during the day. But ive still got another week of freshers activities in the evenings. Im not sure whether i'll manage it as we have been getting to bed gone 3am and im SO tired. Last night they organised a quite night so we could go home and get some sleep but it still finished at 11.30 which is really late in my book.
Yesterday i took part in my first RAG raid which was in Sheffield. They bussed us there wearing our silly BillMo tops and then we walked around collecting for the british red cross. It was so tiring but it was great fun, and we got to have a pub breakfast which was delicious! I have been managing to cook quite well which I am suprised at given its freshers, but all the activities dont start till 8ish so we normally have about two hours to ourselves to get ready and eat etc. I have to say though, although freshers is awesome, i feel like a need a 3 week nap. To be honest I really want to be at home in the night times as my bed is horrible and Im missing Mum Ross, Dad and Seb quite a lot. During the day it is fine as I am busy but sometimes at night im like ohhh :( There is a huge spring in my bed which is a bit annoying!
Here is some photos of my flat mates if you are interested!
 This is Ali, Harry and Alis (pronounced Elise-not Alice) Ali and Harry live across the hall way but Alis is my next door neighbour and a proper little Mum. Ali and Alis both live pretty close to me! Ali is in Ayslebury and Alis lives in Watford! They also have another boy living across from us, a returner called Ryan who is from Milton Keynes, so we basically dominate!

 This is Steph and Sarah who are my new Welsh besties. They have me saying things like 'Pet' which is a bit odd. :P They are both really lovely girls and they went to the same school so they are already good friends. Steph doesnt live in our block but she pretty much spends all her time here which is nice! Sarah lives in my flat. So far there are still only 3 of us, but we wait with trepedation as the two new people should be arriving today. We persuaded the guy at reception to tell us they were boys but we couldnt get anything else out of him. Im trying to keep an open mind but I would have preferred a flat with all girls because you dont have to make as much effort and also they are dirty and untidy. Also in KK (the flat across the hall where Ali and Harry live) the returner boys have set up a tv and playstation in the kitchen to play Fifa. JOY...  boys keep it in your room, waste of our lovely kitchen!


This is just a photo of all the girls who live here minus Alis. This is literally it, we have an entire block and this is all the girls. I knew Loughborough had a 4 to 1 boy girl ratio but its extreme. There are like 30 boys living here. Ahh well, maybe it means closer girlfriends :)  So we have
Ali, Johanna (Swedish), Yanni, Me, Steph and Sarah.   Johanna is the only girl below the top floor poor thing, she lives with JUST boys. ew! Yanni lives in KK with Ali. 



Well i think thats all for now because I want to watch the doctor who finale before the other girls get up. Today on the line up is bouncy castles and a bbq which should be nice. And then tonight is the 'Sing Off' I actually think its pretty harsh to put that the night before lectures start because its meant to be crazy! There is activities after it but i think i will come home and try and get a good nights rest. Im really hoping to be in bed by 1am latest as my first lecture is at 9.00am and Im meeting a girl i met called Sian at the Union at 8.30 to walk there because it is a treck.
So yeah, all done now, but im going to try and keep updating regularly now we come to the end of freshers but please bear with me as I am SO busy. Big shout out to The Isitts who sent me my first piece of post! Very exciting so thanks a lot.
Love to everyone
