10 Things Every University Of Essex Student Asks Themselves

Whether it’s your first year or your fifth, being at uni lends itself to days full of unanswered (and unspoken) questions. Here’s a list of 10 questions you’ve probably already silently wondered about since you arrived at the University of Essex.

1. Where’s 5N.4.what?

Seriously, how the hell do I find this room?  Pretty sure I’ll be using Find Your Way for the rest of my degree.

2. How many years of sleep have I lost?

Pretty sure I’ll never recover from freshers week.  Thank you, coffee; you’re a life saver.

3. Can I adopt Pebbles?

He is Campus Cat. That means I’m allowed to keep him in my flat, yeah?

4. Do I really need a degree?

Honestly, I could make a great housewife.

5. Is this cheaper at Tesco?

You guys, 65p makes a difference when you’re at uni.

6. How long can I put off laundry?

Can I wash it in the lake? Because that shit is expensive. See no. 5.

7. Did I get on the right bus?

Yeah, you thought you knew. But you’re six stops past Tesco and don’t know how to get back.

8. Why am I still awake?

It’s five a.m. on a Tuesday. Where are my shoes? Whose flat am I in? I think I have a nine a.m.

9. Why didn’t I move to Australia?

Someday I’ll see the sun again. I hope.

10. Is it socially acceptable to have Nando’s three times in one week?

Asking for a friend.

If you haven’t asked these questions yet, just wait. Your time will come, and you’ll remember you’re not alone. For those who have asked these questions, DO YOU HAVE ANSWERS!?
