First Year's first day

NADA

I'm just wondering roughly what date first years will start college this year. I'll be doing Computer Science Linguistics and German.

First week of october is usually freshers week, week after that is actual college lectures.

yook: meh, we rarely see the CSLL people anyhow aonghus John and Ronan are the only ones of any year I ever see about :P

NADA

why is that?

Crash

heheh ah it suffers from small class syndrome - they share some lectures with us (CS) but people in CSLL really have to make an effort to get to know the CS'ers really.

its a bit of a big slur on words though, lecturers are sleeping time, its rare i get that opertunity in exams....

Crash

I fell asleep for a minute or two in an exam this year...

Nietzschean

thats not a good sign, how did you do in the exam? i've done it in an exam before, finished just after that half our mark so couldn't leave, so took a nap

NADA

So does this mean I am on Summer Holidays until October?:D

PHB

Yeh if you get in, don't tempt the karma gods.

Freshers week begins on the 2nd of October, you want to be there for it, it rocks.

NADA

I forgot about that bit. Ah I'm fairly confident though.

Crash

Aye, dont miss freshers week. its worth it

Running Bing

You'll have no problem getting in as long you have the course requiements. CSLL isn't exactly the most sought after course. You'll hardly be fighting for a place.

i want to go back badly! i wish it was the first day of first year again! what a day! well actually it wasnt as good as the day you register and meet people from your course. and i was 17 for the first 4 weeks of college, total 'mare (i don't really say mare but it really was such a nightmare)

Isnt that called grooming?

According to ym iD for the first 2 months of college i was spanish and lived in Mullingar. I didn't find it too bad, except you ahve to sign a form of some sort at registartion and one of the lines was and I here-by declare that I am 18 years of age or above or some such. When I asked the person whether I should sign or such she wasn't actually sure.
