Get Mentioned in a University Publication.

I’m sat in the University Library with a million documents of my dissertation open and somehow felt the urgent need to write this entry – procrastination at its best don’t you think?

Thanks to a wonderful Miss Erica Stella Toms who writes a fantastic, Bridget-Jones-esque online column for the University’s newspaper, The Western Eye, we were able to get mentioned in a university publication. Crossing another target off the list.

With the recent NekNomiations that swept across the country and with its increasing stupidity, Erica had some very eye-opening views about this ‘Neanderthal’ behaviour, proving who is superior by their creativity to down a pint.

 I however, am not going to lie. I did partake in one of these wondrous NekNominations. The boys from Oxford came to join Sarah and I on a much deserved night out and filmed their NekNoms at our pre drinks. One of the boys felt the need to nominate me and thus the disaster began...

I shall spare the graphic details. After downing my entire alcoholic pint which consisted of: Vodka, Bacardi, Morgan’s Spiced, Cider, Wine, and who knows what else. I remember sitting in Sarah’s lounge looking up at one of the guys and saying “Are we off out then boys?” The bewildered lad replied “Emma, we’ve been out, just got back, you passed out”.

Great.

I missed the evening thanks to my ridiculous behaviour and this stupid frenzy that swept across the nation. Due to these extreme circumstances and being taken out of control, Erica read our blog and in her article suggested that people create a ‘Bucket List’ to do all those important things to get the best student experience rather than passing out and missing them. We couldn't agree more!
