New list of things to do before graduation

Postby graduating on Tue Jan 25, 2011 8:19 pm

Hey Sinners,

I'm coming to the end of my time here at st andrews and i was wondering if you could help me make a bucket list of things to do before I graduate. I know there is already a list out there about things to do before graduation but it's a few years old and many of them are undoable. Who wants to help me?

Things I think you should do:

climb St Rule's tower
go to christmas/may ball
get drunk on champagne
walk to end of west sands.

1.Jump off the end of the pier (preferably while the tide is in)
2. Get fish and chips in Anstruther
3. Have sex in either the library or the castle.
4. Go into one of those shops you've walked past a million times and never stopped at, i.e. the persian rug place on South Street, Psyche's Garden, the Christmas Shop.
5. Find the Town Hall. Most people think it's that building opposite the union, BUT IT ISN'T.
6. Steal the flag from the 18th hole.
7. Walk to Anstruther or if you aren't up for that, to Strathkiness or Cupar.

No they don't.

But bear in mind that Cupar is further from St Andrews than is Anstruther.

I think that what Hennessy means is that the coastal path to Anstruther is longer than the walk to Cupar, which it is.

I would also suggest heading out to Strathkinness, but continuing on until Pitscottie, if not all the way to Ceres. Go by bike, or run it if you're up to it. The scenery is lovely.

Why hasn't anyone mentioned walking to Dundee?

I think walking *back* will be more relevant to most people. Although it was a defining experience of my time in St. Andrews, I wouldn't precisely recommend it.

But nobody mentioned the May Dip, as yet. And I would recommend that. Not medically, obviously. But for sheer brassiness, sure.
