When I was a student, I went to Labour freshers' drinks and worked on a student paper, and I *still* didn't give a shit about student politics and spent three years avoiding the people I'd met at Labour freshers' drinks. And I'm *me*.
Anyone who thinks about this stuff past 30 is a fucking weirdo.

Day 8. Hard to choose from Connected or Step it Up by #StereoMCs for my 2nd song of 1992
Forever reminders of Uni Freshers club nights. Oddly both Rob Birch & Nick Hallam share my birthday, albeit a decade before, and grew up as neighbours!

If you are ever close by then do this walk - both the scenery and geology are glorious. It's where we take @durhamearthsci.bsky.social freshers for their first fieldtrip and is always a stunning day out (even in this year's downpour!)

So many echoes of my conversations with students experiencing loneliness here. The structure of freshers’ weeks etc put so much pressure on first meetings when in fact it’s through regular, repeated, low pressure contact that most of us ultimately find our people

Many freshers come with high expectations of what they imagine will be the best years of their lives.

Flashback to about a month ago when the Oxford Mail were reporting on her and her bonk bus (or whatever it's called) being on its way for freshers week in the same tone as they might report an approaching asteroid.

Dunno if this has changed but when i was a student/worked in universities I was always struck that unions never bothered with freshers fair which seems an obvious mistake - lots of students work, and its a great way to get future activists involved when they have time to be trained up.

Anyway, during freshers week I was given an alarming amount of cannabis by my new friends. I spent the entire week higher than I thought humanly possible, and most evenings whiting out and being sick on my carpet.

Today's Freshers' Concert at Girton College Cambridge was fabulissimo! From Rachmaninov & Fauré through to an ivory tower shattering rendition of Satriani's "Surfing with the Alien" by one of our Natural Scientists on electric guitar, much of it played backwards over his head. Just wow.

“In the 1980s and 1990s, freshers would tack posters of PARIS, TEXAS on their dorm room walls—next to those of ERASERHEAD and BETTY BLUE.”

Today Facebook memories is showing me pictures of the end of freshers week, 17 years ago. I can't help but be so grateful that those people in fancy dress, hanging out in my college room, are the same people congratulating me on my house move, and visiting with their kids. I'm so lucky.
