- [Both] Hello.
- I Niki.
- And I'm an educated being.
(upbeat music)
- It's approaching that point of the year
where everybody is going on a new adventure in life.
That may be college.
- Or university, and guess what.
We were freshes once too,
so here's our list of top tips
to get you through the start of the year.
- [Niki] Chances are you're going to university,
and you'll be sharing a dorm or a hall with other people,
and so there's going to be a communal kitchen.
Great, fun, super.
- There's one word to describe this experience.
- Dire.
- Gross.
- You need to put your name or scent
on everything in the kitchen,
or someone else will eat it and, or consume it
in one way or another.
- Unless it's one of those ready meals.
Nobody should be eating ready meals.
They are so gross.
- Okay.
- Lock everything up.
Lock it away.
- Or lock it in your room.
(old-timey music)
- Bastards.
(cat hiss)
(beep, beep)
- [Sammy] If you're unfortunate to have to share a bathroom
with the whole floor of your dorm,
you're (beep).
You're literally screwed.
- But there are some precautions you can take
to make sure your bathroom experience
in halls is not awful.
- A human sized condom,
so you don't have to touch anything.
- No.
Flip-flops, ninja socks, sandals.
- Nobody wants verruca to be going around the floor.
It's gross.
- It's not even verrucas that are the problem.
- One time, somebody did a poo.
- No.
Don't touch the floor.
It is lava, basically.
(bubbly music) (water running)
(shriek)
(gag)
- If you walk into a bedroom,
you can guarantee you'll find a selection
of clothes items on the floor
and food items and packets and wrappers.
- Make strong endeavors to fit in
with the rest of your group
by also littering your room
with various articles of clothing.
(epic music)
(flatulence)
- [Niki] If, like me, you're an introvert,
socializing is gross,
and it is going to take some getting use to
mingling with different people from different walks of life.
- Don't be that drunk person,
you know, the drunk friend.
- So there is one tactic that I have learned
and used over the years to help me get along with people
but, also, not have the side effects of being drunk.
- I call it the ninja shot.
(upbeat music)
(ding)
- Socializing is gross, but remember,
you can remain in your room,
and Tumblrs' your best friend (moaning)
and Facebook, and Twitter, (grunting)
and YouTube. (grunting)
We're here for you.
- It is vital you maintain contact
with those that birthed you whilst you're at Uni.
- Is it?
- Maintain contact with your parents
whilst you're at univesity.
- Really?
- Yes, it's important because two years down the line,
if you've neglected them,
bank of mom and dad (cash register)
won't be so kind to you either.
- That's true.
- Just talk to them, ring them.
She wants to know how you are.
Your dad wants to know how you are.
Let them know.
- Keep them sweet.
She wants to tell you what the cat's been up to
and what she got her mum for her birthday.
(phone ringing)
(ring tone)
- Now.
Accept.
(phone ringing)
(ring tone)
- Can you see me?
(ringing)
- Hello?
Hello?
- [Mom] Hello?
Oh, have I done it again?
I didn't mean to call you that time.
- Thanks for watching today's video, guys.
Make sure you give it a massive like,
and comment below any tips you have
for freshes this year.
- And we'll see you guys around soon.
- [Both] Bye!
Let me tell you now, that you have both seen it,
an there is no scenario where they didn't see it
because they've seen it.
they know it landing on them.
- Okay.
(beep, beep)
- Yeah, no.
(laughter)
- Yeah, yeah.
(scoff)
No, stop it.
