But that is rare. I am staying in Trinity Hall , where 7 of us share a kitchen, and each have our own private bathroom. It's more expensive than other halls, but worth it for me. And I enjoy cooking. There's one other lad doing Optometry, but the other five are doing all sorts of courses, from Biomedical Sciences to Peace Studies .
Halls are a great way to meet people.
I knew all the people on my floor by the end of the first day, and all the others in my block by the end of the week. 25 of us all went out together to celebrate my birthday last week. We are only a few weeks into my first term as I write, but my social life is developing. I have already joined the sub-aqua club . As I am already experienced and very highly qualified, I was voted onto the committee and appointed as the club safety officer.
