You can only say you’ve lived in Wills if you’ve experienced these 10 things
The Wills on the bus go rah rah rah!
Wills Hall's posh reputation is well-documented.
It's basically Bristol's answer to an Oxford college paradoxically filled with students who say: "I'm so glad I didn't get into Oxford."
But what is it exactly that defines the Wills experience?
We've collated 10 things that everyone who’s ever lived in Wills will have definitely experienced.
1. Getting off the bus after a night out to the chorus of: "the Wills on the bus go rah rah rah!"
We all know everyone who's not at Wills is a bit bitter that they don’t have their own separate bus stop, but sometimes staying on the bus until Hiatt Baker is the only option.
2. Having to listen to a fair few "gap yah" anecdotes
Wills students love to talk just a little bit too much about their ski season or when they went travelling around South East Asia.
"Did I tell you about that time in Bali?"
3. Ordering a Deliveroo instead of supper on "meat-free Monday"
It can be very distressing if you’re in new block and they deliver your food to outside of old quad.
4. Stressing about your hummus or salami being stolen
Because ‘Waitrose Essentials’ is definitely not an oxymoron.
5. Knowing someone with severe Uber addiction
Coronavirus scare? Guess you’ll have to get an Uber. U1 delayed? Uber it is.
6. Loosing track of how many times you’ve been asked what school you went to
If you didn't go to an elite boarding school, expect a look of horror, and if you did, then every mutual friend you have will be reeled-off in minutes.
7. Having a friend miss lectures for shooting, the races, or maybe even an impromptu ski trip
Luckily, the strikes will temporarily ease these taxing, scheduling conflicts for us all.
8. Fearing that you might end up on "The Overheard at Wills" Instagram page.
While at the time the cold seafood linguine was very distressing, you don't want to burden everyone else with your struggles.
9. Fearing taking your Wills water bottle into lectures
They gave it to us for free – OK! We don’t all enjoy being thought of as posh idiots.
10. Ending up in Lizard Lounge after a Wills formal
Sadly, I have heard people non-ironically say: “live, laugh, lounge.”
