    Eh, I officialy win, we have 0 Pictures done for the Gaeilge.. First day back was the very same as all of last year. Straight in at 9.10 got a heap of Trigonometry homework to do, did some Geography, got 3 A4 pages of English homework on that Cat comprehension that came up last year. My grinds teacher for Economics decided to give me a welcome-back test about the Rise and Fall of the Irish property market and on the role of NAMA. *Sighs* it's going to be a looong year.. Only 12 months to go though until Law and Business in NUIM/TCD hopefully if everything goes to plan! :). Thinking positively this year, WE CAN DO IT.. :D

    If you concentrate better at home then study at home :) No point wasting money... Currently debating over study, with buses and all being expensive I don't think mine will let me pay for just the morning run :/

    I'm the exact opposite...I'll never work unless I'm sitting at a desk where I know I'll get in trouble if I mess...........If I stayed home I might as well kiss the old LC goodbye :P

    There is no point in doing it then..save money for college;):D.
    I know I'm too distracted by the tv and pc at home and it takes me ages till I get going at home so study is a better option for me:p

    Ehm biomedical science or just general science... Points have risen so much for them. I'm hoping to get 500 but that's a lot of studying... It'll be worth it though :)

    First day on Monday.. Dreading going back :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 39 madigan94


    meh first days aren't usually that bad.........just a big long talk : "big year ahead lads, knuckle down, don't **** up, don't do drugs etc;"


  • Registered Users Posts: 461 ✭✭Joey.


    The amount of times we were told on Friday to "hit the ground running" :rolleyes: With the way this weekend is going, it's fair to say I didn't really listen :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 118 ✭✭icedtea


    Less than 36 hours.... ****.

    I'll be grand if I study as hard as I did last year.... but that doesn't mean I'm going to enjoy it

    Right guys..I've a problem!
    I suffer big time from tonsillitis 3-4 times a year..Was at a specialist about getting them out and he said next time I have it to ring him..Next time being now, the day I go back to school! :( I don't know whether to get them out or hold on until after the LC as I've to do last year & this years work, and I don't want to be missing 2 weeks of school. What do ye think I should do??


    Oh god I'm the same, with the subjects I do I can't even miss the first 2 weeks as we're already back, I'm terrified of getting it around mocks/orals/LC. Going to have to really take care of myself this year I suppose :/

    My teacher's slightly crazy, she writes fiuntas and all those, so she made us do them as soon as she got the pictures for printing the supplement, we'll be finished the course by october thankfully but we work unbelievably hard :/ it's awful. We do them ourselves and she tests us on every single one in front of the whole class, don't be too worried, you'll get them all done :D
