    The majority of the desks this morning at 8.30 were 'taken'.

    Sworn off alcohol in desperate attempts to conserve as many brain cells as possible until after my final exam... parents picked up a slab of Bulmers on offer in Tesco. My own family are peer pressuring me into failure

    Please elaborate, we don't get to experience anything fun in the Hamilton. What are we missing out on? :pac:
    It's just the hashtag on twitter for all the library related drama: the fifteen minute rule, desks being reserved, notes being left, discussions on the right to an hour lunch, and arts students trying to figure out where the Hamilton library is.

    I just hope all of this doesn't make more people come in early. If I go in at nine tomorrow and all the desks are taken I won't be impressed.

    Did your exam yesterday go okay? I'm sure I failed the paper but should pass with labs...

    Ten exams for ten huge modules spanning an entire year spaced out over 2-3 weeks.

    Why?

    Administrative convenience, perhaps?

    Being finished college with no idea what to do next.

    And people constantly asking "Ooh you're finally finished! So what are you doing now?! Better get a real job!"

    :(

    It's quite a challenging time, much more so than during/after the LC.

    In fairness, they probably have hay fever or some other summer allergy, which isn't really just a case of blowing your nose and being done with it.

    If you're in a shared place you must expect noise from other people.

    I know we're quite annoying us hayfever folk. But, we can't go anywhere without itchy eyes and blocked noses. :(

    SORRY

    Got made to feel like utter shit today by the health center receptionist and refused an emergency appointment despite her not even knowing what was wrong. I was so surprised and upset I couldn't even argue. I pretty much never want to go back there, but unfortunately I still need to see a doctor.

    TSM Exam results have gone onto the portal today. We were originally told they'd be put up there on results day in early June, then told we'd get the results on the noticeboard but they'd be online in early July. It's now mid-August and we've all already got our results through other channels.

    Well done, whoever decided this portal was the way to go :pac: It's so badly laid out, I'm so glad it only came in in my final year instead of trying to navigate it for the whole degree :p

    Thon's crazy, we got our (SS) results on the Friday and the breakdown was on the portal by Tuesday! Even though it is fairly academic at this point, it would have annoyed me greatly to have been kept hanging!

    I don't know if I can blame the new portal for this, but the calendar seems to suggest that post grads begin registering in two days online, and that the term begins very shortly - still haven't received any info about when to expect to begin, so can't give notice to accommodation office about need to move in early. Three more years of this, but I love it really :)

    Ohh, looking at all the new threads, now I don't want to be finished! :( So jealous of everyone just starting.

    Won't miss essays and medieval literature, but damn, I'm gonna miss being in Trinity (I know, I should get out of this forum now :pac:). First September in 18 years that I'm not going to some academic establishment...
