The life of a university student so far has been interesting, there is the all night drinking, the drinking every night, meeting new people, forming new friendships and gaining new rivals. The most daunting aspect of all this is having moved to a new city, where do I go and what do I do now that I don’t know the place or people. Luckily for me that feeling didn’t last too long as I now have a good friend base and I am learning all the best places to go out in this city. My first night in the city, I brought along my best friend Adam, we went out with many of my new flat mates and had a great town in what I thought was a nice club called Mood, it was later that I found out it was a chavish bar. That night Adam was taking too long to leave the club so I left him with my capable new flat mates and left to go home with 2 others. An hour later Adam turns up at the flats with a bloody nose, turns out he had been chanting Manchester united football songs, which in Liverpool is not the best of idea’s. This made got me thinking, can myself, a guy from south Manchester really fit in, in Manchester’s biggest rival Liverpool?
Luckily my fears were quelled the next night when I went out with some flat mates (leaving Adam in the flat, I think he was too scared to face the big city again), that night was the night that I realised… this is my new home.
Now two weeks on I am starting to feel like ive been here ages, granted I miss my home and my friends and I will always be a stopfordian, but after you bring a cone to your flat you know youre really here! Last night I went to a club simply known as the Krazyhouse, I had heard many good things about this place, so I thought I should check it out. We arrived there and right away I knew I would like it, good music, three floors, many bars, lots of attractive people who were finally my type, I had found my fish bowl and these were my fellow fish.
The night after the events at krazyhouse we decided to explore the gay area of Liverpool, granted it was a sunday but we didnt expect it to be so quiet. Perhaps if we went on a different night it would have been bigger! We did however find a great little club called G-Bar (how original) and enjoyed ourselves in there. Me being me manged to pull a rather attractive guy, my first pull in liverpool and its a guy, not for lack of trying to pull a girl that is.
Yesterday was an interesting one, i spent a lovely day with my flat mate Lizzy and we went around town, shopped and spent a nice afternoon in the Walker art Gallery, something im not really used to but it was a nice way to educate myself in culture. We went home and started to get ready for the steadily anticipated presidents pub crawl. Part of our preperations was to make cocktails, i began with the pinapple, but stupidly… i put a wooden spoon in and nearly blew everything up, suffice to say we gave up on the cocktails. We met all at half 5 outside the Sudents Union Bar then set off on our hours of drinking fun. Come midnight i was ready to pack it in, but unfortunatly i had to work at 2AM for the SU doing some flyering. We did this and came straight home to bed where at half 10 this morning i got a loud annoying awakening from the fire alarm test… hows your week been?
fingers crossed the rest can be done
