My teenage years were so good. But now I am jealous that I can never go back, so I am thinking of getting a younger body and climbing into it to make me young again. Then I can go to the cemetery and hang around just like I did when I was 14, drinking cider and having underage sex. |

the prossies are much the same price as 15 years ago so you can't really complain |

my teenage was pretty great as well, i wish i could erase the period between then and now tho. |
||||||||

perhaps you should reverse that - first go to the cemetery, THEN climb into a "younger" body. |

it's the same for everyone mate, don't think it isn't |
||||||||
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|

i guess hanging out at the graveyard is a popular teenage pastime wherever you grow up... |

hmm I'm thinking about going to Uni in liverpool, is it a great place socially? (that's all that matters really, I don't give a damn about how good the teaching is at the Uni as long as its above mediocre) |

Friends who have studied there liked it and when visiting them, I found nightlife to be pretty good and a cheap night out. |
||||||||

life was boring for me when i was 14 no cider, no sex reminds me of life now actually but i do have the cider bit covered |

haha Ceri JC : Thanks, thats what I heard from a few people now and it makes me want to go there even more. Leave the family in London, start fresh and have everthing cheap :) ace! |

If you come from London, you'll be amazed how cheap the cost of living is up there. Some of the ninja tunes lads play there reasonably regularly, the students union has good bands (they had the Scratch Perverts for their freshers ball a couple of years back!) A few good drum and bass nights up there too. Ecnadniarb should be able to point you in the direction of decent clubs/nights there. Academically, it's like most places, some mickey mouse courses, some good ones. Check with some people who work in the area you're studying what their perception of it/the quality of graduates is. Never believe league tables, particularly those cited by the university, there are loads of different ones and the always use ones that put them in a favourable light. |

yeah...wowzers thanks a lot thats a hell of a loadsa info :) my heart's set on the place because : * its cheap * has a great nightlife * is capital of culture 2008 * has the greatest football team in the world * is far away enough from my parents for them not to suddenly drop in and "see how I'm doing" |

Despite the stereotype of them all being theiving criminals, I also think you'll be pleasently suprised how friendly and laid back the people are compared to most Londoners. |

most londoners are becoming dirty chavs <<|>> SValx : thanks for that! :) You say you were thinking of applying to Liverpool..why didn't you go there in the end? |

Youth is wasted on the young. So they say. |

I decided not to apply there because I want to do Psychology and it's not got the best course for it really. It's still not completely out of the question as it is a brilliant uni and as you said there are great prospects for it and the city because it will be the capital of culture in 2008. My preferences have tilted towards Leeds now. It's an amazing city, and I feel much safer in it than in Manchester, for example. |

The unis that are generally the best tend to be called the name of the city like Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool etc. The ones that aren't so great are the ones with longer names such as Liverpool John Moores. I'd strongly advise you coming up north, it's much cheaper and in my opinion more relaxed and friendly. It doesn't really matter which big city uni you pick, up here as long as it's good for the course you want to do, because they are all reasonably close to each other. Manchester and Leeds have excellent and diverse night life and a great music scene, but it wouldn't matter if you went somewhere else such as Liverpool because if there was a gig on in Manc or Leeds it'd only take an hour-an hour and a half to get there. |

Just because it's different to your little soft voice doesn't make it weird Aengus. :) |

are you calling me a batty-boy eh?! nah i actually find it quite interesting; i imagine they have a well unique vocabulary of colloquialisms as well. i'd do a thesis or something on the Scouse accent but i hate phonology :) |

yeah I was also looking at Manchester although I haven't looked at Leeds at all. Its a major piss off actually because the only way one can get decent information regarding these Universities is from word of mouth of people who know them because the prospectuses only show you the best bits and the damn tables are nothing to go by. John Moores looks great on paper and in the prospectus but I've not had about a dozen people telling me its shit so I guess I'll cross that off the list. For a targeted course in English Lit. with a predicted ABCC I guess the Uni's I'll be looking to apply to at the moment are Liverpool, UCL, Durham and Manchester. I need two more to fill up the 6 I need to put on the UCAS form :( |
