How has it been that long already?!
The first thing you did with your official email address was join the uni network on Facebook.
Facebook was still relatively new and not all of your home friends even had it yet.
And then you joined a Fresher's group and added a bunch of people going to the same uni before even getting there.
Some of the friends you made this way are still in your life even now, others you never actually met IRL.
So Fresher's Week was just you trying to figure out who people were and if you had already spoken to them on the internet.

Basically your whole uni social life revolved around Facebook.
When Facebook removed "is" from status updates a few months into your first term it was a bit confusing for a while.
