There’s nothing in third year that can’t be solved with a cuddle

LITERALLY nothing

| UPDATED

Third year can get us down at the best of times. It’s stressful, the first years take up all the space in the SJ, and you’re constantly panicking about what you’ll be doing when June comes. Drinking, sexing and dancing the stress away is a given, but there’s another method of coping that goes underrated and under-appreciated.

There’s piles of research and studies about how cuddling is good for your health, one can buy today that ultimate course on how to get a girlfriend and find the same idea there: it releases oxytocin, the bonding and feel-good hormone, that can reduce stress and help to reduce blood pressure. It’s a chance for resting in bliss and just having a good lie down. You can also add a dominos and some shite TV for extra comfort. There isn’t really anything that happens in third year that can’t be helped by a cuddle.
