    Random question but has anyone else seen the inbetweeners movie? I think I was the last person in the country to see it :P (saw it last night). Funny, but not as good as the series :rolleyes:
    I haven't seen it yet. :P Figures, I'm last to see it. :rolleyes: I'll get around to it one of these days!

    As for Misfits, I never got past the first episode either. :)

    Something like that happened in my town a few months ago (old man assaulted, homes broken in to) and it's not a massive town, like. Since there's not that many people, chances are whoever did it will be caught soon enough!

    It's ****ing weird, hopefully the guy'll be caught soon. I'll probably be questioned as it was a pub owner who lived above the pub, and I was in that pub last night.

    Watch out for that one if you want to do a science degree and count it as your 2nd science subject (in the case of TCD, which needs 2) they don't count chemistry & phys-chem for matriculation purposes. You can count it for points but not as your 2nd science subject, if ya get me?

    Omg we got the same total as I got 440 and 169 in the hpat! Tbh, I never expected to get this in the leaving, I was hoping for 500+, everyone expected that of me too, but things went wrong somewhere. :( I still haven't told my points to anyone except my family, it's too embarrassing cos everyone kind of assumed that I'd do well! I know I can do it, so gonna work really hard this year. I was very enthusiastic at the start of the year last year but by the end of it, I just wore myself out, kind of gave up and didn't put in all the work and got sick on the morning of many exams and yeah, but it was all my fault and I am paying for it now! :P I just hope I'll do better, wayyy better this year! Good luck btw, I'm sure if we put in all the work, we'll be able to get it. :) I'm sure you'll be able to get those extra points. :) Omg really, you're only the second person in 15 years? That's great, and ya, there's nothing to feel bad about, many people repeat for competitive courses like these. Half of my school is going for med. :/

    No I don't go there but I go to a private school in cork. Really? Many people in my school did well, 2 got 600! :P And around 8 people got med, so I'm back to that same school cos the teachers and everyone were really good, it was just me who didn't work hard enough. :P Oh ya, the extra 25 points for maths, that's a great thing, but I hate project maths!Haha, I'm a girl. :)

    Eh what's this about no Easter holidays? :O.. say it ain't so..


  • Registered Users Posts: 635 ✭✭✭EmptyWithMe


    I'd say it's just my school, but they're cutting our easter hols 'cause they think we're going to miss loads of school if it snows. Even if it doesn't snow this year (which it will) we still won't get the hols 'cause we missed like 3 weeks last year. IT SUCKS.
