Go to work and make lots of money.:D

Then go and travel around a bit and see the world.
And then get drunk quite a lot.

I am NOT going to go study architecture like SOOOOO many people in my course. I;m sick of the books so i'm going straight to work. (Thats if i finish the course)

Go back to bed

Same here, college is a nice place to visit but when ya get to the point you just don't want to be here anymore it's time to go!
But of course you'll be told " sur just stick it out another year, it will be worth it in the end" maybe so, but while we re all studying, other's are out there been young while their still young!
Don't know about ye, but with work at the weekend , college , there s not much time to go anywhere(if ya had the money)!
I is outta here the first chance i get!


As what i'll do after college, anything, really gunning for fibre optic splicer!!!

Well as soon as I'm finished my exams and I get my degree I'm going back to germany and all going well should have a job lined up to walk into.
I have to do work experience for 6 months next year..... I am working on getting myself 6 months work experience next year in germany and if I like it there and they like me then maybe, just maybe I can go back there and work full-time when I'm fully qualified!!


Well thats the plan anyway!

jesusjones

Ill take it each day as it comes.Definitely work when l leave anyway and Travel a bit as well.God that was a boring response wasn't it?

seanos

see if any company will let me near their network ...

i_am_dogboy

I'm seriously thinking about doing a degree somewhere else after this year, unlike most I am thinking about doing a masters........but not straight away.

the_syco

Finished college. My plans? Repeat my exams

Once I've got my cert, finding a job will be easier. I've got a few interviews, based on no cert, and most kinda want someone with a cert.

So once I have the cert, me'll get a tech support job somewhere for 2 years, and then goto HP, or somewhere

Headcase

strangely enough after i get my degree i'm thinkin of joining the Gardaí. good money, great benefits and pension and its damn hard to get fired. bet i could manage it though!

That is a bit weird

Have you seen vickers lately? - He seems to have put on a bit of a belly since he joined the gardaí.

Me personally, I'd like to do some Research PHD into AI or a new programming language or maybe robotics.

I really dont know how I'd fair out in the REAL WORLD[TM]

tommycahir

Feck the Real World. Goto some University, and once you've got a 2.2 Degree (about 80%ish, bascially), you can get a research poject thingy.

Oh i remember now, you ve already stated that you'd be moving to germany And you couldn't pick up the fact that everyone knows this and tried to bring up the situation again when where you can tell us, is this the reason you sarcasticly said you would never move away and then insulted me!!!Surly there is another??
Been so smart i thought you would have been able to pick up on the fact that, that post was not posted just for and was intended to find would people rather stay in ireland or move away and as we already know what you are doing why did you reply???????:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

there's life after college??

Moonbeam

Haha the optimism is great:)

the_syco - how did the repeats go? U back in the college or working?
Also u would need a masters to get in to a phd with a 2:2 or have good work exp.
And a 1:1 is a grade of over 70% overall.

Whats are people that actually passed their degrees in Carlow at now?

Kain

I also plan to travel around a but and have been thinking of going to Brisbane when i finish here, hell if i really like it i might not come back, i just really want to get away from this country for a while.
Iwas actually hoping to go there this summer, but i can't find anyone thats willing to go (and no i will not be paying for you).
