FRESHERS: 6 Alternatives to a Night Out at the Club

When people think of students and the uni lifestyle, something that instantly springs to mind is the drinking culture. Now don’t get me wrong, I love a good night out, but sometimes the thought of dancing for hours in a packed room and spending money on overpriced alcohol simply doesn’t appeal. So here are some great alternatives to a heavy night out.

The cinema

Because who doesn’t love a trip to the movies? The cinema is a relatively affordable way to spend your evening if you don’t fancy a big night clubbing. It’s a great way to see friends and to get out of the house. Most cinemas have a particular day where it’s cheaper so keep a watch out! Also Keep an eye out for your university cinema as they often show new blockbuster films much cheaper than the local cinema in town!

Movie night

If you really don’t want to leave the comfort of your own house (only enough to rush out for snacks), then perhaps one of the simplest and most enjoyable alternatives to a night out is a good old fashioned movies night. Pop to Tesco’s to pick up a supply of m&m’s, biscuits and crisps, change into your PJ’s, settle down on the sofa in a pile of blankets and enjoy your movie!

Cook

Whilst you could pop out to dinner to a fancy restaurant (well as fancy as you can get on a student budget) it can be just as fun to cook a meal! Make an effort to buy all the trimmings, spend the time cooking and settle down to enjoy some good food. One of the favourites in my house was fajitas, simple but delicious!

Music

You honestly can’t beat live music. Whether it’s a band at the local music venue, an open night mic, or a new music event somewhere you can’t go wrong. Keep an eye out at different venues for cheap tickets, most pubs will have live music at least once a week. You’re student Union also normally offers a great ranges of artists!

Cocktails/Pub

Sometimes you may not feel like going on a big night out, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make a trip to the local pub for a pint! Cocktail bars often have happy hours and student discounts, so if you only fancy one or two drinks this is a great and relatively cheap way to spend your evening. You can’t beat a pub quiz or a bit of karaoke at your student bar!

Board game night

Sounds simple I know, but board games can provide endless amounts of fun, especially those that go on for hours. But be warned, make sure you know the people you’re playing with, these games can get extremely competitive and even jeopardise relationships.

FRESHERS: Routine -Let’s Not Make it So Hard

So whilst I know some people haven’t started or are still in the process of experiencing their freshers week, here’s a post for after all the madness of freshers has died down and the real university begins.

A routine is something so many people wish they could accomplish – one that includes: meals, exercise, work, jobs done and relaxation. But, it’s all so much easier said than done! I’m one of those where it works perfectly for a couple of days and I feel like Superwoman then something throws me off and I just can’t get back into it! I’ve started to learn what works best for me and I think that’s such an important aspect of getting into a routine. You can’t just look at someone’s life and think I’m going to give that a go. You may copy their routine but it might just not work out the way you want it to!

I understand now what times are best to do certain things and which work for me. So this is roughly how I go about trying to be in routine (this is a general routine and more applicable to me being on my university break):

• I try and get up early (but it doesn’t always happen) and when I mean early, I mean 7.30/8am not ridiculous times like 5.30/6am. That just does not work for me because I’m really not a morning person, but I never feel like I’m missing out as I still have plenty of time to get what I want done, if I prioritize the important stuff for that day! And I take my time to enjoy my breakfast in the morning and check emails because I feel more ready for the day when my morning’s aren’t rushed!

• In relation to university work, especially during busy periods I’ve come to learn I’m more productive before 12pm and after 4pm. I have no idea why! I get tired very easily and in these 4 hours I tend to lose my energy and can never sit down and get stuff done efficiently! I usually take a nap or just take some time to myself and just listen to music. Obviously,being at home I have more spare time but, even with lectures and seminars my body still works in the same way so I just fit my work in around my lazy hours! and that’s going to be different for everybody so find your least productive times and work with them not against them!

• I CANNOT exercise in the morning, my body just does not function! I’ve already mentioned I’m really not a morning person and I think people feel exercise has to be done first thing! Most studies show people actually feel more active between 4pm and 7pm and that’s around the time I try to do some exercise myself. I try and do it about 6pm or 7pm at the latest so that I’m not eating too late! Otherwise, after a shower and eating it’s time to go to bed before I know it.

• Evenings are normally spent with my friends and family or whatever if I manage to get my work done earlier in the day. But if I workout earlier I tend to do a little extra university work in the spare time I have before I sit down to relax. I get into bed about 10.30pm so that I can read for at least an hour to wind down. And I set my alarm to wake up 8 hours from the time I close my eyes. (I’m a bit of a fan of the whole sleep cycle thing)

• Another really important aspect of creating a routine in my opinion is making sure I try and eat my meals at the same time each day, and not just when I can be bothered. Having certain times for my meals means I’ll always eat properly and wont get distracted by other things, which can lead to me snacking too much or eating too little in a day!

So that’s more or less how I go about my daily routine and I understand busy schedules can make it harder! As I’ve mentioned over and over this is what suits me and you just have to find times of the day that are most productive for you and base your own routine around that aspect! If you can get your work done way better at night time then make sure during the day you take the time to relax and do the things you want like see friends.You won’t feel as guilty then when you have to say no to those pre-drinks so that you can do your work!

FRESHERS: From The Eyes of a Graduate

Where to start with freshers week? With all the emotions that you feel it’s safe to say it’s unlike any other week you’ve probably experienced or will ever experience!

Having experienced freshers week from different perspectives this article will give you a brief low down on what to expect when you first head off to uni…So shortly after results day you’ll become exposed to a whole realm of different people trying to interest you in events. From your soon to be student union to private event companies and clubs you’ll be invited to a lot! Be it themed club nights, bar crawls, picnics or beach trips with academic societies you’ll be spoilt for choice!

It’s important to mention here that although a big drinking culture has and still is associated with freshers week not everyone drinks, and not all that do have drunk before coming to uni! Coming from a small village in Cornwall and only recently turning 18 before starting at university meant that the first few days of freshers week was a massive eye opener for me, as it will be for many freshers this year!

From working for both the university and the students union at Exeter during freshers week as part of The Welcome Team, in both my second and third year, I can guarantee that the situation new students find themselves in are not unique and the staff have probably dealt with similar situation loads of times before!

It’s important to remember that The Welcome Team are there to help you, they’re part of a volunteering project to help you get settled into your new home both day and night. The Welcome Team help make it easier for a lot of clubs to take care of drunk people, but as a fresher it can be a tiny bit under appreciated. We don’t get paid and we give up our own freshers to ensure that everybody is safe and taken care of, but it’s was such a fantastic project to be involved in and very much worth the long hours! Each Welcome Team member will have their own individual experiences of freshers and will know exactly what you’re going through so don’t be afraid to approach them and ask for help!

To help you settle in over the first few days here are some tips:

• Wedge your door open for the first few days to get to meet as many of your corridor/flat as possible!
• Don’t shy away from just knocking on people’s doors and introducing yourself!
• Think about how you’re going to get home from nights out before you go out! The city will probably be completely new to you so make sure you’ve got a taxi number saved or at least know how to walk back to your halls of residence!
• It may be worth saving your universities security team or campus patrol in your phone so if you’re completely lost or have any issues they can be soon on hand to help out! Many universities increased their response staff during the first two weeks of term to ensure that student safety is maintained so don’t be afraid to give them a call!
• TRY NEW THINGS! So many societies put on taster sessions to try and get you to join up! Over he years I’ve done everything from climbing to kayaking and shooting! This will also let you get to know some of the committee for these clubs and societies and properly get to know how social their club is.

FRESHERS: Quick 10-Minute Make-Up

After waking up with the world’s biggest hangover this fresher’s, the last thing you’ll want to do is put a full face of makeup on before heading out the door. So here’s a tutorial that shows you how to achieve the most from as little products and effort as possible.

1. First off, always make sure you’ve hydrated your skin with a good moisturizer and let that sink in for a few minutes. I use the Estee Lauder Day Wear Cream as it leaves my skin soft with a nice glow.

2. Cover any blemishes with a good concealer, I love the Estee Lauder Double Wear Brush-On-Glow Highlighter and Concealer, just dab onto your problem areas and sweep under your eyes to brighten up those dark circles, plus apply the tiniest amount on your eyelids and dab using your finger.

3. Then we need to highlight important areas of the face to brighten up your complexion for the day. The MAC Strobe Cream is a favourite of mine to use when not wearing as much makeup because of it’s creamy texture, use your fingers to apply to your cheekbones and up to your temples, the tip of your nose and the cupid’s bow on your lip and the arch under your brows. (Alternatively you can mix this into a tinted moisturiser or your foundation as well to get an all over glow.)

4. Just to add a bit of definition to your face, apply a non-shimmer bronzer, like the Peaches and Cream ‘Sculpt’ pressed powder underneath your cheekbones. You can also apply this over the socket of your eyes to add definition here too.

5. If you’re a lover of the winged eyeliner look and can’t bare to even think about leaving your bedroom without it, this is a toned down, more natural approach. I’ve used the MAC Eye Pencil in ‘Coffee’ across the top of my lash line. Don’t worry if it’s not perfect like your usual liquid liner, I sometimes even smudge it to make it look a bit more natural.

6. Apply 2 coats of your favourite mascara on your top lashes and a tiny bit to the bottom (only if you feel you need to as sometimes it emphasise your tiredness), this will open up your eyes even more when you’re feeling a bit under the weather after the night before. My favourite for years has been the Maybelline Colossal waterproof mascara in black.

7. And lastly, to add a bit of colour to your face, a product that has many uses: the NARS Velvet Gloss Lip Pencil, you can use this to line your lips and then fill them in with some colour, it also acts as a gloss too! (Another use I find it’s handy for is to sweep and blend it onto the apples of your cheeks to add a bit colour.)

 

So there we go, a minimal makeup tutorial that will have you looking fresh in just 10 minutes.

FRESHERS: What Happens When You Think You’re Too Old for University?

Freshers. One of the most exciting words to enter the mind of a wide eyed teenager working towards the end of their college education. The culmination of two years of work in college is to scrape the grades needed to get into their subject of choice at their chosen university. Once they’ve achieved the bare minimum required to get in, the real excitement starts. Forget budget planning and getting essential items, the conversation turns to the clubs they’ve scouted in their area that offer the most exciting entertainment in the first two weeks of university life.

New groups of people forced together through sharing a grotty student flat congregate in their temporarily clean kitchens to sink pre-drinks to get over their inhibitions before hitting the dance floor. The loud music and bright lights of the city dazzle for the opening two weeks before becoming an expensive oasis in the desert, but for those two weeks the freshers are untouchable kings of the city.

For the reasons stated above I am absolutely dreading the prospect of freshers this month. I’m 24 years old. As much as people have repeated the cliché to me over the last few months that “you’re never too old for university”, frankly, I probably am. Those that know me know that I have a mental age of around 56. This is not ideal when you’re preparing to embark on a university course with the doe eyed teenagers that look forward to freshers week, six years after I last attended college.

First and foremost, I’m not a big fan of clubs in general. I don’t like the fact I have to pay to get in and to hang up my coat. I don’t like the music that gets played at conventional clubs and I don’t like the volume at which it is played. I don’t like the fact I have to pay in excess of £4 for a bottle of Budweiser or Carlsberg because I don’t want to spend the night drinking shots of tequila or vodka and lemonade just because they’re on special offer for students. I don’t like shouting the same anecdote in someone’s ear four times because they can’t hear me. I don’t like the humourless baboons that are hired as bouncers and I don’t like dancing. Give me a good traditional pub any day.

Second, I’m not the best person at meeting new people. This is something I have improved over the last few years but I’m still undeniably awkward at meeting people for the first time. It’s not some sort of underlying trust issue I have, but I like to figure people out before I put my chips on the table. Once you get to know me I like to think I’m pretty good company, but for the first few meetings don’t be surprised if I seem a little wary or reserved. It will pass.

Thirdly, mental age aside, I’m going to freshers as a mature student that will be six or seven years older than a lot of the people around me. You have to take things like this into account when you’re planning various aspects of living in student accommodation. I knew that when I was choosing my room, it would have to have an en suite bathroom. Partly this was for my own sake so I didn’t have to go to the toilet in the middle of the night and tiptoe around a pile of vomit and passed out teenagers to have a quick piss. But perhaps more so I was selflessly aware that the teenagers I could potentially be sharing with might walk into the shared bathroom one morning and stare in disgust at the old man that lives with them trying in vain to shave his back while they’re trying to spray their hair or whatever young people do these days.

Finally, and probably most importantly for someone brought up in the north of England, the simple cost of freshers is enough to make me sweat. I’ve spent the last six years working full time for a betting firm. I’ve been an assistant manager in the branch for the last five years. Over that time period I reckon I’ve earned around £80,000. Of that sum I have saved precisely £775 to take to university. It’s not something that I’m particularly proud of, but I’ve had a hell of a time and some great memories over the last six years.

That being said, I’m now going to be living on the breadline for the next three years. My maintenance loan will just about cover the rent. Student Finance Wales have kindly given me a grant of £79 that I don’t have to pay back. I am grateful for it but I don’t really understand why they’re paying it to me in three instalments. On top of that I’m going to have to work a part time job to be able to eat and live. I really, really cannot afford to spend the first two weeks of my university life partying away what little money I actually have,

Through the clouds of negativity, I have conjured up that there is a big shiny light beaming through that is university life itself. Once freshers is over, everyone will be too poor to go clubbing during the rest of the year so I’ll be able to quietly segue into finding a decent local pub that I can go to with like minded new friends that I will make. Despite my social inhibitions, I know I’m going to make new friends in university. It’s almost impossible not to in such an environment. The fact I’m going at 24 is probably not as big a deal to other people as I presume it is. A lot of my best friends are younger than me so I guess I’ll be well prepared for spending time with that demographic both in my accommodation and on my course.

So I guess if you’re reading this my advice for freshers starting this month, just get through the first two weeks. If you enjoy it, great! Have an absolute blast, it’s what those two weeks are there for. If you don’t enjoy it, it doesn’t matter; chances are the next three years of your life are going to be the best experience of your life so far. Soak it all up, make new friends and do your best to make something of your life.

And the money? I figure it’ll work itself out somehow. If not, I’ll have to sell my body parts on the black market to survive. Doubt my liver will be worth much by October though.

FRESHERS: How to Master Looking Fresh on a Lazy Day

Looking stylish throughout the day can be quite a feat, especially when you’re carefully trying to style out the heavy night before.

The best thing you can do is go for freshness wherever you can, the cleaner you look the cleaner you’ll feel. Don’t skip that morning shower, wash away the groggy feeling as soon as you’re up (Trust me you’ll thank me after!). We all know sitting around all day in those baggy PJ’s is only make you feel worse.

In terms of comfort, go for your ‘kindest’ skinny jeans. Make sure they’re clean and sharp in style. Faded or ripped effects only associate your look to how you may be feeling.

Soft jumpers are ideal for easy lazy wear, perhaps opt for a roll neck for extra comfort, especially when it’s cold. Avoid oversized styles however as they can give an unwanted frumpy appearance. If this is a must however, I’d suggest a gym look on your lower half to offset it. Leggings and trainers will provide the appearance of energy, whether exercise is intended or not!

Keep accessories to a bare minimum, effortless is key. Utilising some large sunglasses will always top off a lazy look perfectly (all the celebrities do it). A touch of lip gloss is a good way to insinuate health and hydration, and let your skin breathe as much as you can get away with (those sunglasses will help!)

Tie up your locks for the appearance of a fresh face, it’s also great for disguising a bed head look! No matter how you feel always carry what you wear like you mean business. For those fresher hangovers: fake it till you make it.

FRESHERS: Dealing with Anxiety During Fresher’s Week

It’s incredibly hard for me to sit here and break down all the advice I want to give for dealing with anxiety (or any mental health issue); every individual has a complex reaction to anxiety triggering situations. It’s so difficult to pin point exact ways that you can deal with your personal anxiety as it varies for every individual.

So, instead this post offers a few immediate actions that you can take that will work to calm and comfort you in the short term. Although, never be afraid to seek professional medical, you’d be surprised how many people suffer during fresher’s week and beyond, visiting a counsellor or seeing the doctor is not uncommon.

Tip 1: Breath.

Breathing exercises can be incredibly useful. Deep breathing can be a powerful tool in calming any symptoms of panic and you can do this subtly in any given situation. Just put your hand on your stomach, exhale, pause, inhale so you can feel your stomach inflate, pause, exhale and repeat. For more information on this (and a demonstrative video) visit anxietycoach.com. (http://www.anxietycoach.com/breathingexercise.html).

Tip 2: Write things down.

You could keep a journal or list things it doesn’t matter, but there are benefits to writing down how you’re feeling. Your thoughts will feel more structured once you’ve noted them down, they may seem clearer or they may seem more manageable when you see them in physical words on a page.

I recommend writing a list of positive things that have happened during the stressful period of freshers or writing down all the reasons you originally came to University. The act of writing solidifies these positive thoughts, makes them definite and also becomes something you can refer back to when needed.

Tip 3: Create a safe place.

My safe place throughout the whole of first year was the bathroom. There’s just something about a small space that I’m familiar with that makes me feel safe, like I couldn’t be accessed by anyone outside that room. I would go in there to calm down and take a few minutes every now and then.

I’m not saying you should shut your self away constantly. I’m just saying it can be a good idea to have somewhere to escape to, somewhere that’s private and is always available.

Tip 4: Recreate your happiest moments.

This tip requires some reflection and thinking, but it can help you beyond freshers week to maintain a happy lifestyle. After your first few days try to pinpoint the situations, the moments that have made you feel the most relaxed and happy. Who was there? Where were you? What were you doing?

Its likely that revisiting the elements of this happy moment will once again make you feel happy! However, its all about trial and error in finding the things that help you. For example, during first year, I felt happy watching ‘American Horror Story’ with my flatmates. Although, when I tried to watch it on my own, I found I wasn’t really enjoying it. What I liked in the first situation was everyone being together and making jokes about the show.

Tip 5: Push yourself in small doses.

In CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) they teach you about something called ‘exposure therapy’. Sounds daunting, but it can be very effective if you keep working at it. The basic idea is that you expose yourself to the things that make you anxious so that you can better deal with them. The more you do the thing that makes you anxious without any distractions, the more you’ll adjust and the stronger you’ll become.

This concept can be terrifying despite its beneficial effects. I recommend not trying to do too much at once, just push yourself in small doses. Take small steps forward instead of expecting yourself to instantly stop being anxious.

I hope these tips are reassuring and helpful to you, whether you’re anxious in anticipation for your fresher’s week or struggling with anxiety in general. Remember, no matter how effective any of these tips are they are no replacement for professional help. Don’t be afraid to speak out, you are not alone and you don’t have to put up with the way you feel.

FRESHERS: 10 Things to Remember During Freshers Week

Here are a few tips to keep in mind when you’re experiencing your first Freshers!

1. It’s ok to call home – Freshers can be very over whelming, for everyone, even if you’re a party animal it can take its toll on you. There’s cooking for yourself, meeting new people and doing your own laundry (sorry, not trying to scare you)….but just remember it’s ok to call home. Everybody gets a little home sick, and it takes some time to get used to being away. So if the people who can help you get through are the ones back at home, then do it.

2. Just be YOURSELF – It can be nervous meeting new people especially the people you’re going to be living with, but university is the best time to come into your own: whether that be what fashion interests you have, your music tastes or even what you enjoy to eat! There’s thousands of people in university so you’re bound to find people who have the same interests and like the same things, so don’t stress about it! The more you’re yourself the easier it’s going to be to make proper friends.

3. You don’t have to go to EVERYTHING – You may have bought that “Freshers ball” pre to coming to uni or maybe all your flat mates have the ticket, but it doesn’t mean you have to go. There’s seven days so don’t just follow the crowd, choose what you really want to do and don’t feel pressured (realistically seven days straight is expensive and exhausting).

4. Make the most of Taster Sessions – One they’re so much fun, two they’re totally free. Uni’s have so many societies, some are your usual sports try outs then you have other stuff like the Harry Potter and GOT societies which put on some really really cool things. Freshers week is your chance to experience things that you don’t normally go for, who knows who you could meet and what you could end up being good at!

5. You will need some alone time – From a personal point of view, I’m a very outgoing person but I also like to take some time to myself, especially during hectic times. It’s ok to just sit and chill in your room and its also nice to explore and find that coffee shop on your own. If you take a few hours out a day to have time to yourself it doesn’t mean you’re missing out, we can all get serious FOMO, but learning to be ok on your own for a bit doesn’t mean your antisocial.

6. Be cautious of what you’re drinking – This may sound obvious and I’m pretty sure your parents have told you a thousand times, to most people freshers week revolves around drinking and it’s just a reminder to be cautious and take a step back and remember your limits. Drinking is fun (do I love a good drink and party) but it’s also easy to get sucked in to thinking you can play all these drinking games and be completely fine and that you’re completely invincible. Just drink how much you feel comfortable with.

7. It might not be what you expect it to be….or it could be! – We’ve all seen the movies…mostly American ones and we all want our freshers to be like that seen on the screen, yet it doesn’t always turn out that way. But that’s fine, as long as you had a great time it doesn’t matter, we queued up for a club on the first night of freshers then decided we’d all rather just go back and chill. No body knows what to expect, just go with the flow and don’t try to force it, otherwise you’ll end up ruining it for yourself trying to make it something its not.

8. It’s the best time to test our your social skills – If you’re a bit of an introvert freshers week is the best time to brush up on your confidence skills and get talking! Don’t be shy, just be yourself and approach people. In the end most people you speak to in Freshers you won’t ever end up speaking to again, so just get out there and make some chit-chat!

9. Watch out for yourself – At the end of the day you’re in a new place with new people. You don’t know if they’re gonna walk you home or look after you when you’re drunk. So just make sure you know where you’re going and that you’re not putting yourself in danger. Different uni’s have different campus services so just make sure you’re familiar with contacts, and also the Welcome Team’s will be there to help you along!

10. Enjoy it! – Obviously the most important! There’s never going to be another time in your life where you can act more stupid or be as free as you can in freshers week! Have fun and embrace the beginning of University life, remembering to create a week that tailors to you!
