Introduce Yourself 2010/2011 - Introductions only - No chat

Aoibheann

Thought I might as well get this started nice and early - sure the Leaving Cert results will be out soon anyway! Here's the format from last year (which was taken from the year before, and probably the year before, you get the idea! :pac:), but feel free to add/change as you wish:

Name:
Year/Course:
Age:
Societies/Clubs/interests:

Here's some link to clubs and societies, in case anyone wants to have a look.

So I guess I'll get things started:


Name: Aoibheann (I'm as shocked as you are!)
Year/Course: SF Theoretical Physics
Age: 21
Societies/Clubs/interests: I'll make a point of getting more involved in Mathsoc and Physoc this year, I shall be taking up a martial art with the lovely A Neurotic (who I'm sure shall be introducing himself at some point), I'll be working on TCD Miscellany a bit (one of those spelling/grammar checking types - though this post is likely to be littered with both) and I'll be hacking again. Hackidy hackidy hackidy (I may as well say it as Jonathan will most likely edit it in anyway..). :P

Oh, and seeing as Craguls mentioned it, I'll most likely be doing none of the above and instead be nerding it up in the hope of getting Schols. Maybe. Hopefully. >_>

(also, I didn't put in the no chat rule! *hides*)

Age: 20
Societies/Clubs/interests: The only thing of note I do in college is write for things. Last year I had the back-page column in TCD Miscellany. May be doing a column for Trinity News this year.

Edit: Do we really have to have the "no chat" thing? Sort of ruins the fun.

andrew

Name: Andrew
Year/Course: JS Economics (Through BESS)
Age: 20
Societies/Clubs/interests: The Phil mostly. Maybe I'll actually join and participate in another society this year. Realistically, however, this is unlikely.

EDIT: I agree. So close to coming before you in this one, you bastard. (Heh, coming before you.)

djcervi

Year/Course: SF TSM French and Spanish

Societies/Clubs/interests: Like many people I joined many societies last year, but I didn't get really involved in them. Obviously I like languages, so something like French society and An Cumann Gaelach would be good for me. I wouldn't mind trying my hand at something different, like debating. Also I might try to find a sport that I might be good at. If there is a music society I wouldn't mind learning guitar again.
