I assume you are expecting to read a story about Birmingham clubs and Aston uni nightlife. Well, I am trying to show you a different view of the nightlife (as a friend of mine says: "What can you do man, as long as you're trying!").
After the open day last week I got a bit melancholic about leaving uni for a year. Most students say that the placement year is always amazing and uni is never missed.
