    I see May 1st is tomorrow which means Summer will be officially here. Seeing as tomorrow is a Bank Holiday though, with it being May Day, does that mean the college is closed? (I have to return some books)

    Speaking of summer, anyone got any special plans? Going anywhere nice? :cool:

    The library is open from 9 to 12 midnight tomorrow, but the issue desk closes at quarter to five, according the website.

    I'm supposed to be going to Edinburgh, and I want to go to Istanbul for the KOC Open (debatey geek nerdiness) if I have any money.

    However, this thread is far to premature. It's not summer until the exams end.

    If it keeps pissing rain like it did today then it certainly won't be summer. I wonder if we'll ever get it...

    Holy balls, I totally forgot it was a bank holiday tomorrow. Better leave studying until Tuesday then! :)

    This time fortnight I'll be starting my job..... scary. Just gonna be working for the whole summer, watching loads of football in June (thanks lord for the World Cup!), no plans to go abroad at the moment but who knows. All I care about is earning the moolah for next year!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,469 ✭✭✭Pythia


    I would like to go somewhere, but it seems unlikely I will. Well, except a few trips to Roscommon!

    Its funny cos Irish people all want England to loose but its always the england games that evryone watches over here. I suppose its cos everyone knows all the players,beckham etc.

    I for one wont be watching the world cup as Il be in singapore and then on to Australia for a month-yay!and then most probably home for reapeats:(
    Am kinda scared bout heading to Australia cos its the first time Ive travelled by myself but its something ive always wanted to do!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    I never watch English games like rugby or the premiership, feel sorry for the poor GAA folks:o Summer doesn't start till June the 2nd, when I finish my exams!!

    Are you just travelling on your own, or are you going on holidays on your own?
    Sounds interesting anyway. Much better than working in an accouting firm!

    Like Enda said, summer once eveyr four years Seb? :rolleyes: Hate soccer anyway, it bores me only slightly less than the gaa's version of rugby.

    Summer starts on June 2nd. That is the day I finish exams and get more drunk than I've been in eighteen months! :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    My summer starts on the 22nd of May. I plan to get horrifically drunk :)

    Then I have my sisters wedding, then cuba and then the whole finding a job, being responsible, yadda yadda yadda.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,270 ✭✭✭singingstranger


    Genuinely can't wait for the World Cup, Ireland-less regardless... it starts the weekend before I start in Google for the Summer.

    Yeah, Summer doesn't start 'til the exams are done, but Saturday 27th ftw!

    Yeah so true. I can bet you the same barstoolers who will be supporting Trinidad and Tobago when they play England coz ''they hate England so much'' will be wearing their Chelsea or their Man Utd shirts the next time you see them! Thank christ Ireland aren't in the world cup this year or I would crack up!

    *Blows on dice* Gimme a 2 and a 6, c'mon June 2nd! (Snap Humbert!) Most of our class will end up getting hammered somewhere then... No planning, planning ruins things!

    As for jobs... who needs a proper job when you can crawl around supermarket floors counting things, or literally freeze while doing the backup for the deli and frozen?

    I shall be very very very drunk on that day! My sister is getting married and my family are a bit mental when it comes to the big parties. :D

    Can't wait. Then I'll recover for a few days and head off to the sun before facing the apartment and job search :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,016 ✭✭✭Blush_01


    I have a wedding on May 12th. Three day event. Can't wait. Glad my second exam isn't until the 22nd though!
