    just saw your edit, thank the lord, some one who's doing geography!!!!!! my name is jennifer, i have dark short hair, don't be afraid to come up to me on the first day i will not bite

    as you can tell i'm excited!!
    Don't know why geography doesn't seem to be as popular as some of the other Arts modules, it sounds so so interesting!! And I'll be sure to seek you out-- if you see the tiniest person in the world approach you, that's probably me. (I'm 5 ft/152 cm tall...)

    Thank you so much for all the tips on discounts and stuff btw! Also heard you can get discounts in clothing shops just by showing your student ID; do you know anything about that? :^)

    i've looked at the three modules we will be doing, while a little scary, they look interesting :D i always get this anxiety moment at the start of the year where i go wtf am i doing, to be honest last year felt like that and i still go through. so i'm probably panicking over nothing as per usual. also reminding myself i loved geography when i did it for my leaving cert and got a decent grade even though i was sick and unable to finish the exam

    well generally i go up to the counter and ask do they do discounts, it's either a yes or a no. golden discs in patrick street (which is a music store that sells albums and dvds) do discounts, heathons (which is a clothes shop) do discounts, best sports gear and incredibly cheap. lifestyle sports in patrick's street as well (another clothes shop) i'm pretty sure there's a subway (food place) in town some where that does student discounts. i will find it again. oh and the cinemas do student discounts, personally can't go wrong with mahon point, ok it's a trek from the student village but a number 8 bus into grand parade & get on another bus on the grand parade on the opposite side of the street to get the number 15, great rocking chairs and plenty of room to stretch. and it's only 6 euro something for students.

    yeah i pretty much know my way around this town for students, having studied for the last 4 years between complimentary health studies and social studies, i will be able to help you out to find the best place for student prices :D

    Also adding to the restraunts there is tung sin in city centre (Chinese ) .
    Also luigi Malones is decent enough .

    Also for people not from cork who don't know about Wilton shopping centre . It's approx 2 minutes from cuh and is handy if you don't want to walk into town . There is a big tesco there and also a penneys for clothing needs :P there is other misc shops in there ,gamestop etc . It's closer than town for me .
