I'm living in halls. It's a three-bedroom flat with a common bathroom and kitchen *** living room. We each have our own room, which is good. The kitchen/living space is quite big, which is also good. One of my flat mates uses my pots to cook her MEAT in, which isn't good.

There's a laundrette that I never use. We're allowed to customise and decorate so long as we don't leave any permanent marks. Security's a bit of a larf. We pretty much have complete freedom as long as we aren't in-yer-face obvious about people staying over, drugs and lalala.

Accommodation expenses break down to €104 per week, not including the electricity bill which is paid by the semester.

Some weekends I come home to eat and bombard mammy with washing, in which case I live in a house with my parents and brother.

$104 as in like £50 a week? omg so cheap

Whoops, I meant €104 as in EURO as in, like, 80 pounds.

I live in a one-bed apartment with my boyfriend. We'd like to move to Manchester next year, but it depends on which uni I get accepted to.

I'm discovering how difficult it is when 8 people share a kitchen (one oven, one grill, one kettle, 4 hobs, 2 sinks), now that someone who actually cooks proper meals every night has moved in. I'm pretty sure she hovers when she uses the toilet, too, as there's ****ing **** sprinkle on the seat, which never happened before the weekend.
