Who else didn’t intend to watch the Royal Wedding, but totally ended up watching it anyway, and actually thought Kate’s dress was just lovely, though fashion obvs isn’t important, and they do look so happy and in love, though of course it was all too expensive and a stupid old institution anyway, and OMG the ring nearly didn’t fit!, and that lil…[Read more]

this is exactly the same situation i found myself in. I ACTUALLY LOVED IT, and I’m totally jealous of william :P

ALL OF THIS.
I liked when “God Save The Queen” was played & everyone was singing and the Queen was just there like, “Yep…and they’re singing about me.”
I didn’t stay up to watch it live at 3a.m. or anything, but I did watch the highlights that were being replayed on nearly every single channel. Obvs the best option was BBC America bc they had…[Read more]

Oh Pippa is gorgeous. I liked her dress more than Kate’s, that’s the kind of style I’d like for my wedding. *slaps self upside the head-I’m only 19!*

So is everyone from/in/around London? Or any of you guys more ‘provincial’ types, like me?
-
From Glasgow, in London :)
-
London, yep, from Cambridgeshire originally
-
Herts, close enough, I feel – half hour to King’s Cross :P
-
Temporarily a Midlander, displaced from Scotland (adult home)/Yorkshire (childhood home).
-
Manchester right here. I figured everyone would be located in London.
-
Oooh, I’m Brum! (Although i’m a Blackpool girl, born & raised.)
-
From London…in London. Now I feel boring.

Yes!
well well well :) whereabouts in ox?
I will be! In September!
see you next term then maybe?
I am! Are you guys students?
Yes! Well, I am. Yourself?
@mfjay Just finished and now not entirely sure what I’m doing/frantically jobsearching. If any of you guys are in Oxford right now you should totally come to Girl Friday http://www.facebook.com/groups/108974509153440 tomorrow – the monthly gay girls night at the Castle Tavern.
Unfortunately won’t be around, live quite near actually but have annoying family type gathering on the fri. Could be persuaded to go the next Friday that it’s on though..
I am too! Just got here a few days ago to start my Masters next week (ahh!). I’d definitely love to partake in some queer events, and sorry to have missed this one.
Hey! Oxford has a pretty nice gay scene, especially with the uni society. There’s Girl Friday which is (I think) the second Fri of each month, Red Box (the other lesbian monthly thing, although I’ve not been to that yet), a couple of weekly mixed clubnights, gay pubs. OU LGBTsoc [which is open to students of both the unis] generally has loads on…[Read more]
Yeah, I plan to go to the grad drinks but I’m a little nervous to go all by myself. Hopefully I’ll manage to have the pluck to actually turn up (although, I’ve got another drinks event slightly earlier in the evening – I’m hoping for some liquid courage!). I’d certainly be up for an ox-straddle meetup. Keep me posted!
I went to Redbox at the end of last term and was slightly confused at the large amount of men present.. it could have been that we arrived a little late for the event itself though. Ooh I was thinking about the grad drinks, although I am not technically a grad – but at 22 I feel a little old for all the freshers stuff! Which should definitely…[Read more]
I think that at 22 you should absolutely qualify as a grad.
If it officially starts at 9, what time will the party actually get going? Are Oxonians prompt about these sorts of things?
Hmm hard to say, I would generally say that showing up at 9 on the dot is to be avoided.. Although having said that, being a newbie perhaps it would be better to be one of the first people there instead of arriving later and being faced with a larger group of people..? <– basically I have no idea, which is not incredibly helpful of me!
I appreciate it regardless :) Have you decided whether you’ll go?
well, I’ll probably kick myself for the rest of the term if I don’t… so.. yes! want to make a plan of action?
Sure! As I said, I have a college drinks thing beforehand, so I’m thinking of getting there around 9:30 or so. I’ve managed to rope a new probably-straight friend into coming with me, but I’d definitely be up for meeting up with others too!
@emily @mfjay , I wish AS would notify me of stuff, didn’t notice this until just now. I went to grad stuff a bit over the summer despite the fact that I don’t even go there anymore… If either of you are interested in Girl Friday this week, could meet up before hand?
hey, no worries, I was just thinking about getting back to you re: ox-straddlers meet up – I’m up for this Friday, definitely :)
