    Anyone have a link for the newest Cite it Right? All I can find is the 2005 version :/ I had the new (purple) one bookmarked but now apparently 'the requested url was not found on this server' -.-

    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59067410/CiteItRight/Doc-CiteItRight.pdf

    Think that link should work. It's a pdf version we were sent out earlier in the semester. (Oh, be sure and save it to your computer as I'll prbably inadvertently delete it off dropbox at some point)

    It's beyond scary to realise that after four years in college, I still have no idea what I want to do once I leave.

    Do you know what you don't want to do?

    Be a teacher. Probably because every time I tell people my course they respond with "Oh so you're going to teach then?". No. Ya can't teach them if ya can't beat them!:P HOWEVER, recently I have been thinking about Montessori teaching :) I wouldn't mind that so much. But I also want to go abroad for a while to somewhere like Italy, or Russia (I just love the Russian language). But I'm also crap at languages so...:o and I'm pretty sure if I wanted to be a Montessori teacher abroad I'd have to have some of the language of the country. :o

    Speaking to somebody mid-way through Coop in Spain teaching English, without a lick of Spanish. Although there's no doubt in my mind that it helps, it isn't essential. In fact the place I'm leaving takes on new workers every year so would be good for some temp work and practicing getting into teaching.
    That said, the experience may well have put me off teaching forever, but that's because I hate children and don't understand them.. :P

    I imagine a lot of people who finish college don't know exactly what they want to do, you just knock off the things you don't want to do and hopefully try different things. I don't reckon there's a need to get tied down to a long-term career when we're only 22/23 or whatever.

    As for Montessori teaching... tbh I would imagine that you'd need some of the language to teach children that young. But the best way to learn the language is to go the place and pick it up naturally.


    Better you than me though... first of all Russia doesn't sound fun to me :p and I train Community Games teams and have done children's summer camps and stuff, and while most of them are grand, you get a few wreckhead children :pac:

    It's actually quieter than usual mainly because the shops are closed. There are plugs dotted around the rr. I'm beside one now. There's a good few people here with laptops and have plugs in the wall. I reckon you'd be lucky to find a plug for yourself!

    Protip: Bring an extension lead to RR and be a hero among mere mortals. :P

    The classrooms in the Kemmy is a good place to study if the library is packed.

    I would've imagined it was in the PESS building but that hall is SPALL I think? It could be in the arena. Not 100% sure.

    Yeah same here. Thankfully the exam is at 4pm instead of 9am where I'd have to leave my house at 8:30 in the morning :cool:

    I was meant to leave my house this morning at 8:30 for the library but only woke up at 1:30 :pac: Oops.

    I intended to get up at 6 to go for a run and get ready to go to the library at 7:30. Didn't get up till 10 as I wanted to watch Maze Runner.


    Maze Runner is actually a good movie. 8/10 would recommend.

    Watch Series 7 (it's when they've all grown up) its the best! Effy's episode in Series 7 are the best I think :P They are 'fire part 1' and 'fire part 2'

    I better stop talking about Skins before I get carried away and can't stop talking about it :P
