Davon haben wir zu lange zu viel genossen.

Badly written but hopefully comical. Typical stories from the life of a first-year university student. This covers alcohol, food, friendship, enemies, more alcohol, and just a lot of random events that happened during my first year living at halls. Starting uni soon? Moving into halls?

I guess this could give future students a look into what life could be like. It could be used as a guide to not follow in my footsteps.

Learn to meet positive people that will have a life-changing effect on your life.
