That was HORRIBLE!!!

To start the day off i was in at about 9 20 and was queuing for a locker. Made it to the top and was asked Hamilton or Arts building, totally caught unawares i said arts building and it wasn't until i was out of the grounds when i realised. Absolutely raging!

Secondly my water spilled in my bag turning my lovely sheets to nothing but mush! But oh no it didn't stop there!

Had a 4 hour gap in my timetable and that was the most painful 4 hours of my life. The first hour was grand as was the second but then it just became a farse as i paraded up and down Grafton Street numerous times.

.....Then the lectures were dreadful for me anyway. Sitting at the front for everything with those around me engaging in conversation while i just sat there looking like i was doing something constructive but alas i was unsuccessful. Guess i'm just too shy.

OH and to top it all off i'm only in the door about a half an hour. I can't wait for tomorrow!!!

Ahh shih! Sorry to hear that!
Where in the front were you sitting? Dont worry I was doing the exact same tbh, didnt talk to anyone when there were people all around me. Ill make an effort tomorrow.
You should have come down to a computer lab for a while. There wasnt people waiting around to get on them, so meant you could arse around on em for a while.

No worries i was sorry it happened too!

I was sitting three rows from the front at the very edge bang on centre. Had a white hoodie on with grey boxes on it, i'm sure you saw me.

Might do that next week cause my free time tomorrow isn't as long meaning i won't have that much hanging around doing fook all!


Anyone online that could possibly scan and post up the timetable for someone doing Chemistry 1&2 Biology 1&2 Maths MEthods and Foundation Physics. As my sheet got wet i can't see what lectures i have and when.

Cheers mate you're a lifesaver honestly!

Hopefully that site is fixed so i can download my personal timetable AGAIN.

Bed now I think, maybe I'll get in tomorrow almost awake.

God today was boring.

Craguls

Any idea if we can swap around Chemistry tutorials?

I'm currently in from 10-5 without any kind of break on a Wednesday and could probably use the hour at lunchtime

When did they sort out the tutorials?

Sugarglass

Chemistry tutorials are the only ones that have been organised. They were just worked out by the department and posted on your online timetable. The other subjects haven't got around to it yet.

I know for me last year I didn't go to the one assigned to me. Just talk to Noelle Scully (email should be on chemistry site) and explain the situation and she'll be more than happy to help you.

Attendance was rarely taken last year and when it was I just signed my name on the bottom. They only make the splits to encourage you to attend one so not everyone goes to the same one so you'll be grand.

To anyone doing JF Physics through Science; When was the maths test supposed to be on? I have the strangest feeling that it was today and I completely forgot about it...

Heggy

There was a maths test today in the Physics Lab . .

Damn I somehow had it in my head that there were no labs this week. Noice way to start the year, missing out on my first lab!

Craguls

Was regretting doing full maths all week then had one of those EUREKA moments and everything clicked!

Awwwww yeah!:cool:

So how's everyone been getting on so far?

Heggy

Maths tutorial times are up. Friday 11 and Wednesday at 1. Don't start till next week though.

Futurism

Anyone want to scan me their notes :P

We actually didn't cover much more to be honest. Attendance was quite low since most people didn't come in as it was their only lecture.

He just clarified a bit on the last lecture and re explained number notation {X€R} etc

And how it was possible to combine old functions to make new ones; so say one function (f(x)) represented time the other function (g(x)) could represent an occurrence within that time by writing it as (f(g(x)) Otherwise known as FoG.

However he emphasised you can't do the opposite and represent f(x) within g(x) and expect the same result as f(g(x)) does not equal g(f(x))
So in other words FoG Doesn't equal GoF

I think........

MrEcs

Maths methods tutorial times are up.
Monday at 9am or thursday at 5pm.
Could someone please post a link up so I can find out which one im going to be doing. I was told about an online timetable but I cant find a link to it. any help would be great.

Your personalised timetable is available through the TCD Portal, in the student information system section. In maths methods you'll have two tutorials and a computer lab as well as your lectures each week. I have both tutorials and the lab on monday...no fair!

MrEcs

Thanks...i was wonderin what the labs were about...It all makes sense now!!!

The labs are easy for anybody who has any sort of experience with MS word and excel, and if you don't it's still quite easy. There's very little in the labs that actually involves maths.

what are the math methods lab times?
Are the bio tutorial times up?

lipstickvoodoo

my maths method lab is on tuesday at 3...dunno if thers other ones

i dont think bio ones have been posted yet

Jammyc

Can those in other years tell me if I can appeal to change the time of a tutorial/lab? My maths lab conflicts with the time of my optional language class and I'd rather not have to give up the class. and my tutorial time is just generally a pain in the ass. Thursdays 9-10, 1-2, 5-6. The tutorial is at 5-6, such a pain in the hole to wait around.

The clash in times shouldn't be a problem to change. Just go into the Science Course Office and ask them what to do.

Is the tutorial Biology?? I had the same timetable on a Thursday last year. Didn't bother changing it as I used it as my day to go to the gym and stuff. I'd imagine you wouldn't have a problem just moving into another tutorial if you just find out the times. Once again the Science Course office should be able to help you out in this regard.

My first maths methods tutorial is tomorrow at 9:00. Depending on which dart I get in I'll either have 5 mins or half an hour to find the venue.

Could someone tell me where LTEE2 is??? I know its in the East End but I've only ever seen biology labs around there. The timetable thingy says "SL LECTURE THEATRE (SCIENCE 1ST CALL) (A)", but that means nothing to me

Its no big deal but if I have to come in on the earlier dart to find it I'll be missing out on a precious 20 mins of curl-up-in-my-bed time.

GirlatdRockShow

ltEE2 is down the stairs just before the bio labs, it's either just on the left or else you turn right and go down the bit of a corridor

Jammyc

One more question...
Has anybody who signed up for the basic chem tutorials, actually been registered on them on the webct yet? And why is BY1102 there and not 1101?
