All moved into my accommodation.

Pineapple jagerbomb - the healthy way to do freshers' week.

Buying so many books for your course you can hardly carry them!

Almost as good as mum's cooking...

Tasted good though!

Eating ice cream and making the most of the abnormally warm Scottish weather.

Heading to an indoor beach party. Flower garlands were compulsory!

Caribbean vibes in the middle of Edinburgh.

'Excuse me, do you know where my flatmates went?'

Freshers' week Q&A with Chloe
Q. What was your freshers' week highlight?
A. It has to have been the beach party because they truly transformed the student union building into a Caribbean beach! They had a steel drum band playing and massive inflatable beach balls, as well as a spinning and tilting surfboard that no one managed to stay on for more than about thirty seconds!
Q. Any low points?
A. There wasn't really one for me, except perhaps having to spend over £200 on books for my course (and the realisation that we are actually going to have work during uni).Q. What's your accommodation like?
A. It's lovely. Everyone is really sociable and we've made a really great friendship group between the three flats on our floor. My flatmates and I are really similar and all get along really well (apparently we all look like sisters too!).The flat next door is a group of four boys who we also get along really well with. Between our two flats we do a lot of shared flat meals and all go out together for dinner, to the cinema and clubbing, which is perfect!
Q. Anything you wish you'd packed now?
A. I packed quite a lot of stuff. So although I'm not really short of anything, my room is quite crammed. Maybe I should have brought a little less!
Q. Did anything surprise you about freshers' week?
A. It surprised me how quickly everyone has made friends and how quickly I've settled in to uni life. I was expecting to be a little hesitant and nervous at first but I haven't been at all.That said, the workload and number of social activities has been a little overwhelming in these first few weeks!
