    I havent moved off the couch all day. bored as ive ever been but no motivation to do anything.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    So today was my last day at work. Went grand. But my team bought me a few presents and i feel so like wow. thank you so much. then got home and saw a card and read it and was like. 'Can i come back to work.' lol. Feeling loved is not even enough to express my gratitude. Really gonna miss the airport.

    Few drinks tonight to finish off this grand time here in DUB. been a struggle but just when it goes right im leaving but maybe thats why its easy.

    Got dragged to D'Icon last night. Two hours wedged into a corner while getting bumped from all sides as my insides vibrated. Ended up just up-ending whiskey after whiskey down my neck till i got to the point where i forgot i was in a large vibrating sardine tin.

    I went there for the first time last week and will be there tomorrow. It's such a sweatbox :( Couldn't imagine that being the place to go EVERY NIGHT especially at €12 a pop

    I once listened to all of his polka medleys back-to-back. It took about an hour. I was giddy for days after it!

    Weird Al is great. Did I post his new grammar song here? I think I did... it's glorious.

    One of the few times I've read poetry and been stopped in my tracks in awe.

    The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
    But I have promises to keep,
    And miles to go before I sleep,
    And miles to go before I sleep.

    "Why use one word when 5 will do?" has become my mantra over the past two days as I attempt to write my Co-Op report.

    I literally got more than 100 words out of saying I learned how to adhere to the company's dress code.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    I pass a lot of comments which come across as complaints, and a lot of people think I'm not happy. But just cause I sound and look sad doesn't mean I'm sad on the inside. . I'm bored right now but I'm just happy sitting here doing fa. Typing and eating. . Gah life and it's weirdness.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    Robin Williams has passed... Wasn't expecting to read that so soon. If true sad way to end. As one dealing with the idea everyday just.... I dunno always be there for someone. Just do it.

    Im just pointing this out that who ever wrote this clearly learned nothing about life . that or thier school just pure lazy. cause i could have learned all of these if i didnt drop out in second yr of business. But then again i live going in and out of a bank so kinda learned some more things going along in life.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,745 ✭✭✭Macavity.


    To be honest, we didn't really cover that in Business. The curriculum really just scratches the surface on a range of topics, and most of the material was simplified to a point where it was beyond pathetic and not of much use in the "real world". :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭LostBoy101


    It's pretty much true as the government don't wish to see too many people taught the on-goings of how the bank works. This saves them bad publicity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    But sure a large majority are going to learn about a bank in some form or another. so the bad publicity is always going to be higher than they fear.

    A part of me would love to go back to results day last year. I don't remember hitting that level of sheer joy since (or ever really before that tbh).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,573 ✭✭✭pajor


    Blegh it's been 4 years since I got my results.

    I wasn't actually that nervous, mainly due to my first choice CAO being 235 points. :pac:

    But I was over the f*cking moon to see that I got a D2 at higher level chemistry, instead of just failing it. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    I would go back and actually repeat my leaving but 1/2 subjects at a time. Always felt I put a lot into English but didn't get the grade


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 7,849 Mod ✭✭✭✭suitcasepink


    If Ive learnt anything in the past 12 months it's that deciding that its way to personal to tell people your LC points.. Lololol I actually struggle to see my reasoning behind it now. Not saying it needs to be shoved down peoples throats but Jesus there are worse things to tell people.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,068 ✭✭✭LoonyLovegood


    I wish I could repeat mine, but Mam'd kill me. I'm damn proud I even sat it, tbh. About six months before the leaving I almost dropped out of school.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    Oh my god. It's been 5 years since I got my results. I'm so old. Why am I still posting here...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,291 ✭✭✭Junco Partner


    3 years ago today I was clutching a piece of paper telling me I had 400 points. It was more than was needed for the course 18 year old me; in his youthful enthusiasm and stubborness, was absolutely certain was what he wanted out of life. 18 year old me was an idiot.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,776 ✭✭✭Jhcx


    was 2011 that long ago. wow. and im still in education. 18 year old me didnt know what the hell i wanted 21 year old me doesnt know what the hell he wants to do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭wnolan1992


    With the benefit of hindsight, I should have done way better in the LC.

    Don't get me wrong, I was ecstatic with what I got (beat both my brother and sister, and they had the benefit of LCVP's 30 points, 'just sayin' :P) and got into my course with 140 to spare, but realistically I should have gotten at least 20 points extra. The C2 I got in Biology still irritates me.

    Would I ever repeat though?

    Would I f*ck! I still get nightmares over that sh*t.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 7,849 Mod ✭✭✭✭suitcasepink


    Sure we could all do better if we tried..
    Like Id say theres few students that ever feel they did all they could for it.. I remember I was amde to do after school study from after Christmas on in 6th year and I skipped more of them than I ever attended and even when I went sometimes I had a little nap :)

    Anyway, awwwwwww wish I just got my results and was going into 1st year all over again :(:(:(:(


    Wait, this is the Den not arghh.
    Ehh, ehh, ehhh I dont know what to say.

    Finding out I was 3 marks short of an A1 in accounting was an awful awful moment. Not that an A1 would have made the slightest difference but I would have bet my house (albeit, a hypothetical house) on that exam being an A1.


    I ended up having a pretty crap results night then, a fair few people were in some way or other disappointed so they didn't feel like going out. We ended up in the cinema and was probably home by 9. Although I did end up bawling like I've never bawled before after I went to bed when the realisation of 605 finally hit me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,891 ✭✭✭iamanengine


    I did a crap LC. Results were terrible, totally let myself down, scraped my way into my course...and yano what? I went out that night and partied hard and forgot all about them.

    And now I couldn't care less about my exams. I love my course, life is awesome. BOOM!!!

    Except I have work tomorrow, that sucks. But only 1 week and 4 days left and then Electric Picnic and then back to collegeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D:D:D

    Man, life is awesome.

    Exactly the reason why I went into complete emotional breakdown that night but never have since. College results have been mediocre the majority of the time. It was probably a good thing I didn't go out that night, I can not handle any kind of public embarassment which would have surely resulted from my emoional state.


    But yeah, 5 and a half weeks until college restarts, 2 and a half of which I'll be in the gaeltact for (I'll cross that bridge when I come to it). I miss having actual stuff to do. And people. My life seriously lacks people during the summer. I miss people. Woo for college.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,248 ✭✭✭Slow Show


    I was so happy about my results, the only thing that killed me was when I viewed Maths and saw that I was two marks short of an A1, and me and my teacher made up ~ten marks I'd lost in ridiculous ways - not rounding to significant figures and the worst of all, leaving a blank for a question I hadn't seen and knew the answer to ('what are independent events?' will always kill me, I'll still be able to recite it in my sleep in fifty years). But I wasn't even sad on my results day, I was so happy with all of my results and it was only seeing how close I'd come a week later that tainted it somewhat. I actually woke up feeling so nostalgic this morning and wishing I could go get my results all over again. But that was short-lived, like after a year of college, though I still feel proud and all that, those results and everything that was put into them feels so foreign and distant and insignificant. They helped me get to the path I'm on now, and I like that path, but s'all really! :)

    When I look back at getting my results I really question the decisions I made. Sometimes I really wish I chose to do Arts in college.

    I had a girl I know complain to me last night about how she can never be friends with a lad without them wanting something more...

    Woke up this morning to find her in a relationship :confused:

    understanding-women1.jpg


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,068 ✭✭✭LoonyLovegood


    That's a girl who wants a relationship but not with that lad.

    Like, in fairness, some lads are dicks. I ended up in a relationship with a guy because he wouldn't take no for an answer (side note, that's a REALLY bad reason to go out with someone. REALLY REALLY bad reason), and it ended so badly I'm still trying to deal. But she's taking the proverbial, cause she's gonna get pissed off at him, and then she'll look like the bitch when if she'd said no it would have been "fair enough"


  • Registered Users Posts: 337 ✭✭Jacks Smirking Revenge


    Still seemed a bit strange after giving me the whole "All lads are the same" spiel...

    All lads are not the same. And anyone who thinks that needs to take a good hard look at their life and examine where they stand amoungst men women and children. some lads are boys, some are men, some are women. some are men with the emotions of a boy. some are strong some are weak some will fight some will die. so are hardcore some are not. some are gamers some are dancers. some like and want sex some just want a relationship. some want to be loved some just want to love others. some want to go to the end of the earth to save someone some just want to watch the world pass them by.

    But what ever it may be no lad is the same never were never will be we are all individual creatures on this planet. anyone who wants to say we are all the same please go back to the womb and come out when you realise we are not. This applies to women as well. just because we all do a few things in common does not mean we took the same approach of how we got there.

    Sometimes, I think some girls say this because it minimises their involvement in whatever problem they have with boys. It's easier to say that there is something wrong with "lads" than accept some partial blame. Also I think some girls have too high expectations as regards relationships, I mean, if someone buys me a bar of chocolate because they've heard I have had a bad day, I'm over the moon because it's the thought that counts. I dunno, rambling.
