They're supposed to have day loans, a good few of them, but there were none there earlier and the library staff didn't know anything about them.

941 is top floor 20th century Ireland, did you look in reference also? There are two 941 sections. I definately had this out about 4 months ago

Ah I had 2 friends looking for me while I argued with bank people, hectic day. I bet I'll go in Thurs and find it myself right away!

Can anyone tell me whether you can bring newspaper articles into a "findings" section of a thesis, as opposed to bringing them in as part of the lit review.

I'm thinking of it like this - part of my research methodology is to search through newspapers to get an idea of how this subject as been involved in the media over the last year or so. Then in a "findings" section I bring in what I learn from that.

I'm fairly sure I can, but I don't want to do it and then find out it was a waste of time.

I nearly killed a certain Belfast friend of ours when he text to say they were up. There I was, having a nice break away from reality when I get this text: EXAM TIMETABLES ARE ONLINE!!!!!

Or something to that effect. Moral of the story? Don't bring your mobile when buggering off to the beach for a couple of days

Hufu... Human Tofu from our neighbouring country PNG
a tofu-based product which is marketed as resembling, as realistically as possible, the taste and texture of human flesh
Some words from the creator: "I think that a lot of the pleasure of eating the Hufu product, is imagining you're eating human flesh. For that moment, you can join the fraternity of cannibals... If you really want to come as close as possible to the experience of cannibalism, Hufu is your best option."

Nice.

I love being a vegetarian
I'm working on an essay on what Heathcliff represents in Wuthering Heights. Anyone have any suggestions? I will pay in hugs!

How did you all enjoy St. Patrick's Day? I spent with my mammy! I went in to see my granddad, who is 87 and has his days when he's in a funny mood, one of which was yesterday. He's adamant to live on his own, but he gets meals on wheels, (they bring dinner and desert to him) and they don't come on bank holidays, so we went in to feed him! Introduced him to MaltEaster Bunnies...he loves the fact they look like they're about to be hit by a car, and informed that I shouldn't eat him, he might eat you!!

End of rambling about my awesome granddad!! Ha ha!

I think I did that exact question back in first year, random :pac: I said that Heathcliff represented different cultures and Britain's fear of them taking over. Every time he's mentioned in the novel, there's always much made of his dark eyes and looks. You could also use his transcendence of class too, from a street child to a property owning "gentleman". I don't remember how I did in the essay, so that mightn't actually be that helpful

Back up in Maynooth, I wish I was still at home

Ms. Koi

Thank You! That's a great help! **hug**

Why did you come back up then?

Seren_

I had to come back up to organise some stuff, which I probably should have done before I went home. Ah well, I'm only up until tomorrow anyway. I also really need to clean my room up here! It's so untidy.

Ms. Koi

Oh! I live at home, which is Maynooth, kind of handy!
I've another few ideas for this essay, so it should get itself done soon!

OH MY GOD people in the library are so unbelivabely rude- I got called a fat bitch for asking people to be quiet cos I was trying to do my essay. Now chubby I may be, but seriously I actually got a migrane because I was so annoyed and I was there first and there was no way I was moving because of their incessant need to talk about what was happening on facebook.

I hate library arseholes.

*waves at barleybooley* that was me giving you the awkward "I-know-you-from-the-interwebz-but-not-well-enough-to-actually-say-hi" look as you were leaving the library today.

gra26

What would happen if you threw stuff at them?

mickstupp

Like a chair. Or a small animal.

Seriously though, ignorant people suck.

On the top floor?

Someone answered their phone in the library last week. No kidding.

Yeah. They didn't say "fat bitch" to my face (which makes a change from the lovely people who I ask to get off facebook in the PACRs) but after I asked them to be quiet they started pissing themselves laughing and said it.

Sick of that fcuking library. That said, even with the tittering and general arsehole-ness of its inhabitants, it's still quieter than my house so what can I do?

Michellenman

Wouldn't surprise me. Someone last year had an entire, full volume, conversation whilst sitting at their desk. The whole library were just staring at them incredulously, not that that put them off their gossip.

Kill them.

Good old killing fields everyone-keep-quiet - no one would say a word!

Get the library staff, security, everyone up to them if it happens again.

Rozabeez

I avoid the library at all costs because of these people, it's getting unavoidable now though. Damn thesis.

You're one of them! *Hiss*

Say it ain't so Ataxia, do you actually come to the library to socialise?! Hang out with your friends, have an O'Briens and have the 'bant' on facebook? Don't be one of the unclean!

/nerd rant.

I'm sure you're a lovely person Ataxia. But if you come to the library to socialise, make sure you do it 100m away from me.

No, that's not what I meant. I was in once to do work in a group. The only other time I was there was to get out a Noam Chomsky book I wanted to read (which has nothing to do with my course). Apart from that I don't go there.
