Michael Jackson was killed?

Death by negligence doesn't fit in as well as killing

I don't know really, I'm just of the opinion that he would have found the means to feed whatever it was he needed. I've no idea though, I don't think I'd say he was killed but that's just me.

So sick of that movie. I've watched it so many times for my comparative! :P
If I ever see it again after sixth year it'll be too soon.

In other news, mocks in 8 days.
And I've totally changing all my CAO choices tomorrow. :P

Just said goodbye to my brother who's heading off to Australia.

I hope I never have to anything like that again.

I kind of like it, it's a lot nicer than our old comparative movie (for starters it's actually in English). :P

I've only seen it twice now though, that's probably why I don't hate it.

Our mocks are in eight days too, no idea when we're getting the timetable though.

Ugh, I need to stop reading the mocks thread, I'm only fooling myself! >.<

Did my first comparative study Q. for English today, took me 2 drafts and 3 hours to get it right Also, I can't remember a time since the start of 6th year when I wasn't at least a small bit tired. Just thought I'd share that with you all

I'm so screwed for the mocks it's not even funny anymore.
It's depressing.

You're not the only one.

I always find it very comforting to remember that the mocks count for 0% of our actual Leaving Cert points.

Joey.

Study feels so unproductive so I'll just accept that I'm destined for failure

Haha, yeah well even if I had intended on studying for them, there's not a chance I could do so, darn you flu!:mad:

Has anyone else contracted an illness? I'm wondering if it's going viral.

Anyone here doing Biology? Jaysus, the amount of stuff on the course is insane! :eek:

Fergus_

I do Biology as well, it's a pretty daunting course alright.

Namlub

The massive organism unit is only 20% of the course though ,so at least you know what parts to focus on. The hard parts, ugh photosynthesis >_>

Fergus_

Anyone do Adrienne Rich's poetry?

Doing an essay on her, interesting enough

I just had my first ever grape.
It was red.
It was sweet.

Not only have I just signed up for my Leaving and gotten my exam number, but I discovered my great-great grand uncle died on the Titanic.

Recently I found out that a relative of mine died on the Titanic as well, and for the past hour I've been watching a documentary on the Titanic. That timing :pac:

Ha! I'm doing my History project on Titanic. Spent seven hours in the library yesterday

Any letters / documents / original sources in the family that you could use to add a slight twist to your project?

Even re: why he was travelling / reactions of the family to the news?

I don't do history but that'd be a good excuse for me to be watching Titanic documentaries over studying..
