Nights out @ Uni. Farnham - To Be or NOT to Be?

University seems to have lost its main purpose in the recent years. Going to Uni used to be solely based on the quality of education received. However students are more interested in the social side, what the night time atmosphere is like, how cheap the drinks are!
I know University is not ALL about the learnin', and that a certain amount of socialising is important, i just believe the balance of the two has been disturbed. Don't get me wrong! When i thought of my forth coming years at Uni i pictured myself along side everyone else shakin' my hips, swayin' my hands in the air to endless parties, more than you could shake a stick at! And this is where i begin my article on the night life of my University. From Freshers to the average week!

Average cost of a night out @ Farnham:
Coke (the cola kind!) - £1 litre bottle
Vodka - £12 (roughly, depending on which brand!)
Entry to Student Union - £2-3
Drinks out at the SU - £2.50 (depending on what drink)

Unless you take a trip to 'ole Guildford:

Train ticket - £3 (with student card)

Club entry - £5-10 (depending on th club)

Drinks out - £3 - up (Depending on the drink)

Taxi home - £10 each in a mini-cab

So as you can see not exactly cheap to go out to Guildford.

Farnham isn't the place to be if you want a Uni lifestyle choca-bloc full of night-clubbin', for the smple fact that there isn't a club here....

But fear not students! Want to actully get your degree? Come here! And i may have made out a little that Farnham is free from nightlife, it's not. The IS the SU! Which isn't that bad most of the time! You just have to make your night out as good as you want it! Most students go with Vodka :) It's the Fast Train to Drunk-Ville, Stopping at Can't remember a Damn thing so it must have been a good night!

Just a reminder to what ever UNI you choose to go to, Be Careful! Drink totally screws you up! Stay with people you know, your friends! Don't leave room for regret! That guy/gal may look hot whilst your intoxicated with half a bottle of Vodka but when waking up to them vomiting on your floor in the morning, i'm sure you may have second thoughts...
