Ever wanted to know what some students get up to!
Take a glimpse into the minds of our strange group of Uni students over the three years. We aren’t the most ‘normal’ students but who wants to be normal anyway?! Here’s a snapshot of what makes our oddball group so fun and entertaining.
This project looked into some of the things my house had said over the years in university, I took a range of the quotes that we had over the 3 years and created a diary of times, although there were much more some of the quotes didn’t make sense to people outside our group.
Meet the misfits a look into the personalities
- Quiet. Well to begin with, until she's more comfortable. Knowing all the latest cartoons seems childish, but this is part of her charm. Not forgetting her signature "Cons".
- Bubbly and girly but doesn't mind getting bruised when on long walks. Good thing, cause she never avoid obstacles.
- Sporty yet creative using her skill of illustration and photography to give humour and knowledge to the world.
- Quiet but witty, once you get to know him you'll see his wit has meaning. Memories of wonderful weird moments.
- Almost silent until he warms up to you, he is very tall. Wears a beanie to cover his short hair and keep warm.
- Laid back, scruffy with a baby face. Without the beard he'll get mistaken for the 12 year old he really is inside.
- If he is not wearing his shorts and hoodie, you're going to be shocked! Laid back as he looks, this is the norm all year round.
- Bringing intelligence and knowledge about many things to world, but especially bringing comfy clothes.
