At the ripe old age of 24 I’ve started reminiscing somewhat about being a student. “You’ll have the time of your life”, people would say to me before I packed my bags. Well, fair play to them for giving me the heads up, they certainly had a point. Studying what you’re interested in, making amazing new friends, embracing a new sense of independence, the parties... We had our own house party this summer with the irresistibly talented Gabrielle Aplin which you can read all about in this Freshers 2013 issue. It was a belter I might add. You could even (and I recommend you do) head over to our YouTube Channel ‘SPGtv’ where you can watch exclusive video footage of her acoustic performance. The ‘Please Don’t Say You Love Me’ serenader was also kind enough to sign a guitar for us to giveaway - If you fancy getting your paws on it, simply go to our website TheStudentPocketGuide.com where you will find all you need to enter the competition. One thing I do remember about being a student is my pockets being a few pence short of a pound. You can tell I’m getting older using phrases like that. Inside here you will find helpful discounts and money saving advice, plus some awesome student recipes, hangover cures and top tips on how to make the most of this academic year. May I just add that the band responsible for the catchiest song of summer, The 1975, stopped by for a chat as well. Just realised I forgot to tell them that ‘Chocolate’ has been on repeat in my head for a worrying amount of time... So, that’s it from me for now. Take care and enjoy yourselves over the coming months - I’ll still be reminiscing.
