    Someone said it was the local council who had the helicopter, apparently they're using to catch people burning rubbish in their back garden

    They come to castletroy every so often. It's just a lot easier to give when they are on campus because a lot of students tend to be new donors and the queuing puts some ppl off. All in all it's for a good cause and everyone eligible should donate.

    Co-op report fine :mad::(

    Worst thing is I proved I had it done for the deadline, just didn't have a signature. Should have forged it :(

    They had signs on the traffic light poles by the flag poles and a few others on campus.

    I'd love o give blood were it not for my fear of needles and the feeling of being light-headed.

    They don't officially endorse it because of the wording of some of their stuff. Gay rights and what not.

    How long has this policy been in place? Was there a referendum or another form of democratic decision made? Is it just UL SU or do all the SUs in ireland feel this way?

    Thats stupid really. I didnt know about it either.
    They are losing out on plenty of pints of blood not promoting it all because of gay rights. Gay rights dont save lives.

    Maybe the su president will tell us why the su is not endorsing it.

    I think it was decided at class reps council but I'm not sure.
    Ask in the SU if you want all the details.

    Yeah thats what she said on facebook

    S036h.jpg

    But that was on the 27th and they were collecting blood on the 28th and 29th as well. The SU even sent out an email on the 28th in the evening and mentioned a bunch of stuff about an focal and ULFM but no mention of the blood drive. A bit dissapointing really

    You don't have to wait until the blood drive is on your doorstep to give blood. It's a non-issue in all fairness. It was advertised, although poorly. I live off campus and saw signs for it every morning.

    In 3 years, I've always had at least 1 module per semester that I despised with everything in my body, either because they were ridiculously hard or the lecturer was a douche.

    I just went to the lectures just so I would'nt have to study them as much when it came around to the exams.

    :eek: That's a great idea! Why haven't we all thought about this before?! I mean it's really that easy! Heck, I don't know why we bother with the college craic at all, we could have just gone and got jobs in the first place!

    This is the only thread you comment on in the ul forum and it is the bitch about daily life thread. Students do get sick of their course and assignments around this time of year when they are under pressure with exams and assignments/FYP's due.

    They are allowed vent a bit of stress every now and again

    Just found out my co-op CV is due next week on top of a heap of other things. Would never have found this out if I wasn't scrolling through emails from the beginning of semester.

    When was I going to receive a reminder about this?!!
    Also have another co-op thing to fill out too, with no mention of it from the officers themselves...
    You'd think they'd actually want to help us get everything sorted..
    Ridiculous...

    Its not even the phone itself isn't worth feck all. Tis the inconvenience of having to get all the numbers back and losing my memory card.
