Uni Life Has Begun

I was looking through my blog posts this morning and realised that I haven't posted anything since Christmas?? For an aspiring writer, I'm quite shit at consistently writing.
But that's all going to change, I hope you'll be happy to know, because I made it into university (I managed to get into Winchester!) and I'm on the Creative and Professional Writing course, so I'll be spending most of my time reading and writing, and most of the work I'll do I can post on here, like I started doing last year.
On a more current note, my house (that's right; house, not halls?) is quiet lovely to be honest. Its not falling apart unlike other houses on the street and somehow I've managed to bag the biggest room?! I think its bigger than the living room. I've made it quite homely by putting some posters up and my vast array of soft toys, although dwindled dramatically with the move, are still decorating my bed, matching my red and white colour scheme that I continued into the kitchen. I should totes be an interior designer if this writing lark falls through.
My housemates are amazing. I have honestly hit the jack pot, they are so lovely! And they're such a good laugh too. In the house we've got two boys and three girls - and the added bonus of an extra girl because one of the lads' girlfriend also goes to this uni and she around here a lot, and she's brilliant which is just fab. I can also honestly say that their selfie games are strong because I keep finding new ones on my phone after I leave it lying around.
The actual city of Winchester is lovely, although rather hilly. and by that I mean ridiculously so. Its like living in Sheffield. I'm so used to the flat lands of Hedon and Hull, that coming here and living on the TOP of a hill, where the uni's at the bottom, is just a piss take. Its a twenty minute walk, which is fine, but its so up and down that I'm dying by the time I get anywhere. Hopefully I'll get used to it and I wont have to drink a whole carton of milk every time I get home in an effort to cool down.
Luckily, the main city centre is relatively flat and its basically like a big Hedon, so I'm kind of in my element here. I'm chuffed with my choice of uni, put it that way.
As today is Sunday, the last day of freshers, and tomorrow the lectures start, I'm going to have to do some washing today. I cant really be arsed, but I'm running out of clothes so its a bit of must really. In order to do that though, I have to get out of bed. I've been awake since half 8, but I've been in bed since then, just laid here wide awake. I don't know why I didn't go downstairs, I think I just didn't want to wake anyone else up. They're all up now though, cause I've heard the shower go at least three times, so I think I'm safe now.
