The First Week of Classes Continues

Tuesday (1/13) was a pretty uneventful day, I went to class and then to Trev in the evening. On Wednesday there was something called Refreshers Fair which was meant to get people signing up for clubs and societies. I joined the Lancaster ultimate teamed called The Fish. After that I went to class and then Trev in the evening to hang out with everyone. I really love Trev, its not some super fancy upscale bar, its rather a modest looking bar that is teeming with college pride. Here is another picture from Trev:

Zoe was closing that night so I waited for her to finish up and then we went into town and saw Slumdog Millionaire, which was one of the best movies I've ever seen.

Thursday (1/15) morning consisted of classes and my usual takeaway sandwich from the Spar grocery store on campus. And in similar fashion since Sunday I wasted time until it was time to go to Trev for the evening. We all met up there again and had a few pints while we waited for it to get late enough to be time to go out. Around 6:45pm we all suited up to catch the bus to Friary, which was having a special that evening called "Quids" which means that there are a lot of drinks on sale for a quid, which is the same as a pound.

At the Friary we all got our drinks and ascended the stairs to the overlooking balcony area. We found a huge booth and settled in for a few good hours of drinking. The group size continued to expand as the night went on due to the appearance of some stragglers. Here are some pictures of us at Friary:

Around 10:30 the group split in two, with half going to Eleven cause there were live dancing Coyote Ugly girls and the rest of us (Zoe, Urmie, Joe, Jack, and I) went to a club called Elements.

There weren't a ton of people in Elements but we still had a good time. We mostly hung out in the VIP cause a friend of Joe's was DJing. We danced and drank until about 2ish then Urmie and I caught a taxi back to campus and Zoe and Joe went back to their flat in town.
