Have I been living under a rock for the past few months or was it ever announced that there is a new NUIM teaching facility upstairs in Manor Mills? I had a lecture there today and it was surprisingly nice. There's about 4 lecture rooms and they're all very modern.

I knew it existed but I don't know where I heard about it?

I've a sore throat now on top of everything else! Working full time clearly doesn't agree with me :P

I didn't know a thing about it until I got an email saying to go to Manor Mills to which I thought was some kind of joke. It's very nice I must say, the entrance is beside Chill. I wonder what their plan is for it? It's fully equipped with technology, fancy lighting and furniture. There is a huge hall outside the rooms that could easily be used as an exam venue too.

Not exactly sure who uses it. I had an Education tutorial there today and there was another room in use which seemed to me as if it was another tutorial of some sort.

5,000 word research report due Thursday that i've barely started and is all over the place right now..

Lord give me strength

What's a research report? Never heard of whatever that is.

I mean... if it's a report on the research you've been doing, would that 5000 words not be better spent on actual research, rather than reporting on the research? Maybe you could just copy and paste your actual research? Or about 4000 words of your research as a sort of Here's An Example Chapter!

Or is it a fancy title for 'Big Essay'?

Either way, 5000 words sucks! But you can do it. Keep typing.

Basically an experiment we did on the links between personality and behaviour, the point of the report is to validate an objective test of personality. So we've to do up our Method / Results section, Discussion with reference to flaws / improvements in similar types of research in the future, and then Introduction into the general area of Personality, Theories, Psychometrics - Self reports - Objective testing and the Abstract / References / Appendix obviously.

It's grand, we've had 4 of them this year so we're used to doing them, should get it done comfortably between tomorrow and Sunday!

That sounds like a lot of work.
But it also sounds like the sort of thing I like reading about without having to go through the learning of it... like articles in New Scientist or something.

Does anyone know if Primacare still opens on a Saturday morning?

I believe it does!

Primacare is very handy cause it takes medical cards.

I knew the secondary school had classes there but I didn't know the college was using it.

Be slightly ironic if there were buisness/economics classes held there :pac:

Was in there today, and I actually don't think there was any empty units! I assume that won't last long.

Is it just me, or have they intentionally made the wi-fi absolutely useless in JH4?

There used to be a joke about the Computer Centre.

Q: How many CC employees does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: None. They don't change things. Ever. Including lightbulbs.
