    I feel so incredibly stupid!!! Woke up an hour ago with a banging migraine (story of ma loife!!) to an email from University of Maynooth, asking for my student number and password. Half asleep Kellie did so...then realised oh **** this is a virus, nuim would not make grammar mistakes...damnit!
    Emailed and called the computer centre and moodle. Now I can only wait until 9.30 and hope I have not destroyed our lovely website.

    I need to be blonde again, I don't get away with this stupidity any more......


    anyhoosers, back to sleep to kill this migraine and hopefully I will awake and this will all be a terrible, terrible nightmare......*wishes really hard!!*

    Well... if it's FIRST colleges... 17 years.
    I failed everything in that place. Serves me right for applying for practical subjects instead of what I really wanted to study. I even had Maynooth on the CAO form but picked that place instead. Idiot that I was. :rolleyes:

    There's gotta be someone around here who'll beat that easily. I graduated with a guy who'd just turned 80. Lovely fella, in the same class for three years.

    Reminds me of the discovery channel one time on a family holiday in Spain. By the middle of the second week it came to where you'd walk into the apartment and someone would be watching TV and you'd be like, "which one is it " , then they'd be like "oh the polar bear one " or "oh its building of the Shanghai tower one" and depending on which one you'd either go to bed cos you hated that one or stay up and watch it for the 1000000000000th time 'cos you knew it was bearable! There were only five shows on , that played back to back so when I arrived back in Dublin a month later I pretty much was able to have a running narrative of the 5 of them without fail.

    Everything on the History channel is biased though :P

    It really is, love to own some of it

    Storage wars has to be horrendous though. They all just say what they think they could sell it for....never what they actually get for it :P

    True though WW is discovery and it is woeful for it (if you type it into google you'll find reams of crap on the subject)

    Never actually watched a full episode of SW was to mind-numbingly bored after 10 mins to solider on for the next 50 :P

    darrell and his son really have no idea , as for jarrod hes a smart man but his wifes a bítch and he has far too much of a hard on for safes, watched the entire 2nd season and they found more than 8 safes, only 2 had anything in them.

    dave hester, he may be a cúnt , but hes the smartest one there and he actually does make money.

    Jarrod is good despite that flaw

    Dave is great cos he just winds them up into higher bidding (though i do think his slogan is so drawn out it becomes almost counter productive for an auction)

    go look at his website, he turned the whole YUUP thing into a brand, has clothing for sale and all.

    hes worth a few million and has been doing this for years.

    Oh i've no doubt that he's worth a buttload, i just think using an elongated word to bid in a quickfire auction is silly
