Freshers Prep Kit 2017

1. Bottle Opener

“Hey, has anyone got a bottle opener?” Now is your time to shine. The latest gadget in friend-making, you are prepared.
 

2. Door stop
 

Trust us. The first stop (pun intended) to making friends is by showing that your door is, quite literally, always open.

3. Ear plugs

5am halls fire alarms, because, as you’ll soon find, someone clearly ISN’T the Gordon Ramsay of toast. 

4. Party Map

A new town means new adventures, which technically also means getting lost. Luckily, you can just use this map to guide you to your weekly clubs – simply locate your local O2 Academy and check what’s going on!

5. Noodles

All the noodles you can imagine! Sure, it tastes as cheap as it is, but its possibilities are endless. Whip them up between lectures, after a long study session or when you waddle in at 4am after an epic night out. Noodles are the past, present and the future.

6. Gig Guide

The word “stash” will be forever etched in your mind, and can soon be found covering your body for the next three years.

10. Water

And a lot of it! Stay hydrated by alternating your alcoholic beverages and H2O. At our O2 Academy venues, you’ll find Life Water – where each one we sell at the bar go to building wells in Africa, so you’re not only helping yourself, but also those in need.
