39 things you learn as a Sheffield student across three years of uni

For thousands of us, uni is coming to an end – forever. It's been an emotional journey, where we've moved on from the dark days of House Every Weekend (what a bad song), ruined our livers and lives on countless occasions, and found friends for life – before losing them in Pop Tarts.

We wouldn't have had it any other way. Three years as a student in Sheffield teach you a lot – and here's everything that we have learnt.

Despite the inspections and extortionate laundry, Endcliffe was home away from home…

Almost worth the unbearably long trek to uni

…although with noisier, drunker neighbours…

…and absolutely no chance of a "sleeping pattern"

Stuck in Ranmoor? Then you were fully mugged off with only one silver lining

Corp was THE place to be in first year, week in week out

At least 1,000 units of alcohol have been consumed across this photo

Your blue pint-fuelled mistakes live on through Corp TV

Code also exists as an established first year favourite

Despite the brawling Hallam lads and a roof which rains sweat, everyone loves the cheap drinks

One man provided most of your drunk food in first year

The rest of it came from sit down meals at three in the morning, which are of course perfectly normal

Although you probably only need 40% to get through first year, hungover lectures are not the one

As time goes by, your flatmates lose some of their shine

But after first year you'll miss Endcliffe, with its aesthetic views and en suite bathrooms

As work got tougher, there was always somewhere which just seemed to make everything better

In Brexit Britain, £81 million still doesn't add up to enough study spaces

As much fun as Varsity is, the outcome is never in doubt

Sport at Sheffield is a serious business. Six years in a row. Black and gold. VKs everywhere, every Wednesday

There's no getting away from drunken mistakes at uni…

…but the lifelong friendships formed will more than make up for it

Tuesday nights are for bass, booze, and bad decisions

Get Out My Head sounds better every time
