Dear God I just finished my finals

Stargal

Well that's about it really. Hasn't sunk in yet. I'll write a more memorable post later about how much I've loved my time in Trinity and how much I'm going to miss it...

Wow that just hit me. I really am going to miss this place.

Congrats on finishing!

Stargal

Thanks! Going to go try bully my supervisor into giving me my dissertation grade now. I can be verrrrrrry persuasive....

Crash

Congratulations Christine! do what my sister did and run around the place taking pictures around Trinity (including in the library with the security guard!) you know you want to!

John

Welcome to the graduand club. Your rose tinted classes are in the post

tabatha

well done. my brother has finished today as well, although he is only in his first year. congrats again x

Edwardius

It does kinda suck though. even though you get that fancy schmancy piece of paper, you have to wave goodbye to unrestrained hedonism and debauchery and take up....... Squash :eek:. Unless you get a postgrad, something which I hope to do with a view to continuing the wayward antics and screaming at kiddies and hippies alike in the manner that has served me well in the past. By "well" I mean "bringing myself further into disrepute". All yis have to do now is look forward to grey hair and old duffers saying "Well I have a degree in the university of life". To which you reply: Unless you think I've been cowering under a rock when you were getting whipped by your slave master (following cessation of full time education at the venerable age of ten to pursue a crack addiction) so do I, you twisted old ****. You then proceed to inform said individual that you also have in your possesion a degree conferred in finest academic institution in this here state whilst handing him two quid for your bag of chips. Snob you say? I say "nay" I didn't spend upwards of eight hours a day in the library to listen to some **** telling me that painting walls and shovelling **** is "a hard days work". Well it's not, you might smell a little and have sore arms but you'll get used to that in a few weeks. What you don't get used to is spending hours poring over a book trying to make sense of the finer points of superconductivity and nonlinear optics with a view to hearing the elusive "click" when it all falls into place. In conclusion FUCK YOU WORKING CLASS HEROES!. I get bored sometimes... This is one such time.

Oh, and well done everyone else who has shaken off the "curse of the undergrad". Great days lie ahead, or so I'd like to think. Either way, ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

One of the posts of the year, methinks.

Edwardius

Ha cheers. I blame the three hour a day lemmings habit and being stuck in the arse end of nowhere.

Pet

They have the internet in Longford now?

Nietzschean

Class A rant man, well impressive

John

Can you split that post from this thread and sticky it please?

No, I have to scream at a guy on a hill (we have them too, hills that is) through one of those paper cup telephones (being careful to hold the string tight) and he smoke signals the resultant info to a guy in dubin. That's effectively the same as a 33.6k connection, which I actually have. No broadband out in this here outpost. It could be worse though, I was on a bus from letterkenny to burtonport in donegal (where men are men and sheep are buggered) and must have travelled about ten miles without any sign of civilisation. You have to worry when there's only one telephone cable connected to the poles. In other news: Ronan dyes his hair..... like a gay. Gwan ya gay ya ooooooooh. That's how we insult people out here, we call them gay. If that tirade of beautifully sculpted word play isn't enough, we'll tell you to get a hair cut, which you should. You hippy!

I have 44kbps right now. Ooh, yeah!

Congrats, I hope you had a good time here,

I would need ice for that, because that would be a burn. Ah, the rare oul' Longford wit..

Don't you just love the complete lack of broadband in Meath? I can be in Kerry, miles from any sort of civilisation, and there will be broadband. But not 25 miles from Dublin and it's completely unavailable. **** you, Eircom, you clap-ridden, festering boil on the arse of Irish telecommunications infrastructure.

*Ignoring the above*

Congrats! Good luck in the 'big, bad world'.

Or, you could do a postgrad and live in denial for another bit...

As a Trinity student, I can safely say that Ed's post is exactly the type of humorous post that is associated with Trinity students.

Pet

As a non-DCU graduate, I can safely say that kevthecelt's post is exactly the type of stereotypical, bitter begrudgery that is associated with DCU students.

Zing!

Crash

As a moderator, I can safely say that pointless off topic posts like the above are stereotypical of the bitter begrudgery that is associated with banned users.

Pet

La la la.. Everyone, crash is on a powertrip, let's just ignore him until he's ready to join in the play circle again.

Crash

I'm never ready to join in the play circle. and its my slightly more humorous way of saying to Kevthecelt "either stop being a twat or stop playing in the circle."

Awayindahils

Play circle?

Regressing without college?

How is calling everyone else a **** pretentious? I'm just bloody happy to be finished. I'm less happy about my liver swelling up and pushing against me right lung (I think that's what it is). Either way, **** off.

You must have misinterpreted (or misunderstood?) the post. If you knew ed you'd say the opposite.
