Best thing about the college

pikachucheeks · 19-03-2009 9:01pm #1

I figured since the bitch/moan/rant thread was pretty negative,
We could discuss the good points (if any :P) about our college.

I really like the tiles ...
Ha!

Actually, I'm quite fond of the Mac lab.
Even if I don't know the password to get into it

& the red chairs.
Good for sitting!

omb0wyn5ehpij9 · 19-03-2009 10:23pm

I like the small class sizes.....well in my course anyway!

pikachucheeks · 19-03-2009 10:29pm

Yeah, good point.
My class is the same...

Helps you get to know people better!

DancingDaisy · 20-03-2009 8:37pm

I'm a massive fan of the class sizes and pretty much all my lecturers!!! I'm also a huge fan of the grass on sunny days like today. It was a wrench to go back to class, but somehow I managed it!!!

sideshowdave · 20-03-2009 9:31pm

Tallaght rocks

pikachucheeks · 21-03-2009 1:37am

Wish I could say there are so many lovely guys,
But I'm not going to sugar-coat anything!
:P

LMAO

or is it that us guys are more easily impressed??:p

pikachucheeks · 21-03-2009 4:16pm

Possibly and very probably!

Not to generalise or anything, but EVERY guy is easily amused :P

hahah

FuzzyWuzzyWazza · 22-03-2009 12:11pm

I'm not gonna disagree with u there!!:D

I gotta agree with the class sizes, even tho my class was in around 50 at the start of the year, its still muc better than some other places.

I also like the fact that there is pretty much just one building.

Oi, that's harsh :mad::mad::mad:

:pac:

DancingDaisy · 22-03-2009 6:43pm

I gotta disagree with Fuzzy on the one building thing. I always feel like the one building makes it seem like a secondary school, and if there was one place on earth I hated it was my secondary school.

I'm a little sad that I won't be around when all the proposed plans are finished.

Oh, and just to add the one thing I'm loving about the college at the moment, the library's database service. It's providing me with great articles for my essay!!!

And I think Bryn's pride is a little dented. I'm agreeing with the girls though, the college isn't the best for guys. All I seem to come across are guys that think they are god's gift, but really aren't. Then again, that could just be my course!!!

Nah, that's true, in my experience too :P

I'm sure there are some nice guys in the college ... lecturers, maybe

A friend of mine put it well the other day, we were sitting in the canteen and she made the observation that the college guys are either "nerds or knackers"
Hahaha

... I happen to like nerds though! :pac:

I will have you know that I am neither a nerd or a knacker thanks very much :P

Now now girls, less of the guy bashing!

Are you a combination of the two?
A Druids drinking C++ fan?

Teferi · 23-03-2009 2:39am

It's a bit of a mix for girls in ITT. Just don't go near Computer Science for hot girls... :P

sickpuppy32 · 23-03-2009 12:06pm

must admit attending college again after all these years did wonders for my lovelife, all those lovely girls needing extra tution from a mature student ......................dear playboy ,,,,,,

College is for learning, not perving :P

Maybe you should take some of your own advice :P

DancingDaisy · 23-03-2009 3:27pm

I'm sure there is no perving at all!!!

Just thought I would add the feeling of finishing assignments to my favourite things about the college!

That was a good one, I have to admit!
DAMN

I would burn you back, but you're a moderator!

...Quite a useless one at that! This thread has gone waaay off topic and you're doing nothing about it! Haha!

PS. please don't delete this thread!

pikachucheeks · 23-03-2009 5:29pm

Oh,
Something else I like about the college;

The quiet room.

It's quite a nice idea!

Anyone used it yet?

DancingDaisy · 23-03-2009 5:48pm

Do you mean the quiet room in the library? Can be really helpful at times. The reason I avoid the library is because there is nearly always somebody to talk to.

You make a very valid point about this thread going off topic.....but i'm allowing it cos at least it means there is some discussion in this forum now :P

FuzzyWuzzyWazza · 23-03-2009 8:34pm

Yeah where is this mysterious room?????????

And to stay on topic, if I found it, it could be something I like about ITT

DancingDaisy · 23-03-2009 8:40pm

If it is the library one then they are the rooms upstairs and downstairs in the library, where people must be silent.

FuzzyWuzzyWazza · 23-03-2009 8:45pm

it's not the ones in the Library, this is supposed to be a room where u can relax, have sofas or something.

LightningBolt · 23-03-2009 8:49pm

What I liked about Tallaght:

1) Good lecturers
2) Small classes
3) 15min drive from home

In Maynooth now doing a postgrad now. Points 2 and 3 apply still but the actual college night life is way better.

Mr. Presentable · 23-03-2009 8:51pm

Is "Goldfinger" still an engineering lec there?

It's opposite the TV studio on the ground floor!

There's a door leading into Tim O'Connor's old office, the disability officer's office and that room

Haven't been in myself, but apparently, it's full of cushions

You're allowed go in there and just chill!

Hhmmm sounds tempting.....especially when i need a break from fighting with my stupid programming project :mad:

pikachucheeks · 25-03-2009 10:49pm

Yeah - relieve stress in a room full of pillows

... probably stashed full of drugs, knowing Tallaght!

Haha!

DancingDaisy · 26-03-2009 9:58am

At this very moment in time, I think my favourite thing about college is the fact that I have Thursdays off!!!!!

You'll be very happy doing our course! Oh, and just so you know - It used to be called Audio-Visual Media. So anyone, bar the idiotic first years

, call it AV. We're retro!

I definately wouldn't be better on the ground floor seeing as you are down there :pac::p

pikachucheeks · 27-03-2009 2:40pm

You spelt definitely wrong.

Oh, I like when people come to the college and give out free stuff!
That's always fun!

Doesn't matter what it is! I took about three milkshakes last year ... and I don't drink milk! :pac:

Best thing about the college
