In The Play-Pen: Unknown13

03-07-2011 08:00PM#1Join Date:Posts: 28935
Ladies and gentlemen,
This is our main event of the evening! In the Octogon Play-Pen, five rounds days of heavy-weight championship action. In all corners, with an undefeated record, a veteran of the MMA forum, the Noc and C&H, Unknown13!
I think that's enough of the big fight puns. :pac:
Unknown13 popped in for a short visit two years ago, before returning at the start of 2010 to post more regularly. He's made himself at home with over 2,000 posts in C&H, including his fantastic Fantasy Football threads and one of 2011's threads of the year, the Irish Language thread.
It's no secret that we clashed a few times, but since I stopped modding here we've been getting on pretty well. I've even gone on record saying he's one of the most interesting posters on the forum these days.
With that in mind, I give you Unknown13 in the Play-Pen.

Disappointing and a let down. Klitschko was without a doubt the better fighter and fully deserved to win

Absolutely, he should of manned up and said that "Klitschko was the better fighter and his tactics were wrong, which they were". I have lost all my respect for Haye after his comments.

Why'd you join boards?
Unlike many people before me, I didn't join because of Leaving Cert. I joined boards because I wanted a place where I can talk about boxing that was taking place in either Ireland or UK and where the forum wasn't practically dead. Most of my early posts were posted in the boxing forum and the mma forum aswell
What you wanna be when you're all grown up?
I will either be a social worker, working with in a Non Govermental Organisation or be involved in background politics. I haven't fully decided what I want to be yet but it is highly likely that politics will be involved in my career at some level
Tea or coffee?
Coffee
Who's worse: Tiger Woods or Ryan Giggs?
Tiger Woods because it genuinely fúcked up his career and he was still doing very well until he did what he did. Giggs doesn't have long left but Woods had at least 5 good years left, now I don't think he has any good years yet.

Were you disappointed that unNoel13 failed to win the 'Best Couple' jizzler? I voted for you.
Not really to be honest. There were better couples up for the award. I knew I was never going to do well in the Jizzlers as well because of me acting a maggot too many times in here last year.

I'm probably dissappointed about the Hurlers today, made the trip to Croker expecting a good close game and Kilkenny gave us a beating and inflicted revenge on us
You're letting me down, unknown!! :pac:
In all seriousness, you could easily be right ... we've had better teams.
Why politics?
Its something that has always interested me from a young age, being involved in politics at school level to studying some modules and now taking it as one of my two joint major subjects. I also get a bit of a buzz when any big elections come around.

Your Text Here wrote: »Last book you read?
Lamb by Bernard Mc Laverty, that was for my LC comparative. Not a big reader at all
Last movie you watched?
Wall street, that was for an assignment aswell
Favourite social theorist? :pac:
Durkeim because he is the easiest. That first year module on social theory was awful.
Why do GAA players wear their socks around their ankles instead of pulling them up to their knees? It annoys me -__-
I think it has always been the way, I don't really care what they do to be honest.

Who's your favourite/least favourite sociology lecturer in UCD?
Favourite: Aoghan Mulcahy, his module is the hardest module because it is very broad. Least Favourite: Michael Punch, he nearly knocked me out with boredom too many times and I didn't really like that module preferred Alice Feldman's.
Are you looking forward to second year?
Yes, I am. Don't have to do Sociology, It is going to be hard work though since I want to get a good GPA and go on Erasmus. Looking forward to the Challenge.
Any ideas what modules you're going to pick?
I will do be doing the Policy module and Middle East module in Politics anyway. Doing the Social Work modules in Social Policy.
Were you happy that Rachel Breslin got elected as welfare officer?
I stayed neutral in the Welfare race because I am friends with all three candidates. It was the best thing to do. Rachel was a great candidate and came across very well and did serious work for Welfare during the year. I am happy because there were good candidates running for Welfare and you can have no complaints about either of them because of the ideas they brought to the table unlike Education.
Will you be a welfare penguin again next year?
Yes, I will be a welfare penguin next year, no doubt about that.
Did you consider running for welfare officer? Would it be something you'd be interested in?
No, I didn't at all. I am only in first year and there was no point being a first year. I might run for Welfare at some point, It would be something I would have an interest in. I think time will tell though on that issue. I have two (possibly three) years left of college.
What's your favourite memory of your first year in college?
Our second class trip to Belfast or representing UCD at a conference in April
Least favourite thing about UCD?
The sports clubs because most are very money orientated

Do you have faith in Irish politics?
Yes, I do have faith now in Irish politics. I think we have very good ministers and ministers with backgrounds in areas they are in charge of. IE Shatter and Reilly
What do you think is the single biggest change we need in political vision in this country?
I think we need to plan better, Hard to cricise Fine Gael as they only got into government but I think future governments have got to be stricter and be alot more prepared. The recession effects could have been reduced heavily if Fianna Fail had their screwed on, which they didn't.
Would you go bungee jumping/skydiving/into space if you had the chance for any of them?
I would go skydiving. Don't like the sound of bungee jumping and going into space.
What was the best piece of advice somebody ever gave you?
Your in College primarily to do one thing and that is get your degree.
