    Sitting next to my heavily pregnant friend during Sex Ed class in 6th year was one of the highlights of my year. Lots of babies in my school, at 27 I am very old not to be married with babies, but then I had the nerve to move away, meet a boy that isn't from the same town (gasp) and not want to move back, so clearly I'm not right in the head :rolleyes:

    That's mad, it must be strange growing up somewhere like that. Neither of my friends from school are married with kids (though one lives with an OH who has a child) and nobody from college either. First wedding is the one in dec! And they are 30 now

    I think we're gonna bite the bullet and host a NYE party this year :) House parties on New Years are the best, no drunk crowds and extortionate door fees to be dealing with!

    Cool. I look forward to it. Thanks. :)

    Yeah we're all late twenties now from school and there's only one engagement. One of the guys in school had a baby a few years ago but as far as I know, those of us who've stayed in touch anyway no one else is married/with child/has kids.

    Even a lot of my 'older' friends wouldn't be married or have kids.

    And most of them are all interlinked, so say for example (obviously just random names!) Laura had a kid with Mark when they were 17, then Mark got together with another girl in our year Kate, now they have a kid, and Kate used to go out with Laura's brother or something. Many, many half siblings around, which there is nothing wrong with really, it's just complicated from the outset! One girl in my class had 3 kids by 3 guys by the time she was 23, I always wonder about Christmas morning and stuff, must be a rota for who is with what parent that day. Add that to the fact that everybody in town is somebody else's ex, so if you meet a guy he'll have been with your friend, or friend's sister, etc etc. Messy, messy town.

    I don't like Kristen Stewart either I must admit but I loved the books so I just want to see how this one turns out. It was only €15 for the ticket so I said I may as well because I don't really have anything else to do. There are some extra stuff too, I think there's a goodie bag and stuff. I'm such a child.. :o



    Yeah that's true. We both said things we didn't mean and I'm stubborn so that's why I didn't ring him right away when I woke up.. :rolleyes:

    What are you reading?
    15 euro is good for a whole day at the cinema. Have you seen any of the movies before? I fell asleep in the cinema during the 1st one, but then again I fall asleep during movies a lot. Jacob is worth it alone from the 2nd movie on. :)

    Yeah that's why I booked it, think it's a great deal. It's almost 12 hours when you think about it. First one starts at 2.50pm and the final part will be over about 2.15am. :)

    I have seen them all yeah but I like them so gladly watch them again. I'm probably in the minority with that but anyway.. :rolleyes:

    You're definitely right about Jacob. ;)

    Yup, I'd cry after that.

    God no.

    My OH is a botanist, he's obsessed with plants. So he decided to try to find a plant/flower name he could give Pancake. Very easy for girls, not so much for boys. He found a plant that we both like, and we turned the genus part of the Latin name into a boy's name. Galanthe, from Galanthus nivalis, which is the snowdrop. The snowdrop is my favourite flower, Pancake was born in February, which is also when the snowdrop comes out. Voila. It's a bit out there, but it is only his 3rd name, so really no one will ever see it, except on his birth cert or ID card.

    That's absolutely beautiful! I may be tearing up a bit :o

    I don't know what to do for the day. Newbridge or Dundrum?

    I'd cry after the first 5 minutes. Twilight is creepy, and not because it's about werewolves and vampires.


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭LizT


    No matter how much I liked a movie, I couldn't sit in the cinema all day, if movies are longer than 2 hours, I start to get restless.

    /hipster hat on

    I read Twilight before it was cool coz my sister told me to.

    /Hipster hat off

    She has a knack for reading books and then they'll become famous and made in to movies. It's like she has a magic touch or something.

    I watched the first one and thought to myself, "no". Twilight in my head from reading the books is better than Twilight in movie form.

    I always wonder if teachers place bets on that kind of thing!

    I'd say teachers can guess within a few weeks of getting their first years which ones will end up pregnant before the Leaving Cert.

    I think she meant the kind of girls whose sole aim is to get pregnant in their teens, get their council house and happily spend the rest of their life on the dole. And there is something wrong with that, imo.

    Well, each to their own eh?

    I'm off now. Will post tomorrow.

    Exactly what I meant! How could I not explain that properly?!

    I would like to stick all the needy adults in a hole and burry them please and thank you.

    Speaking of kids names. There's a boy in Jamie's class called destiny. His brother is happiness and their sister is angel. I kid you not!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭Bubblefett


    Weird child names? My friend just gave her baby a name that sounds really really like Indiana Jones- I mean I had to get her to repeat it twice til I actually caught what it was. I forever hum the theme tune in my head now when I see them.

    Oh and there's a Britney, Christina, Beyonce and Shakiera living on my street- all around 5years old. I really wish I was kidding.

    Anyone want to do my Irish labour market research for me? I think it's depressed me enough today

    Its so romantic you watch me while I'm sleeping, me being a teenager and you being an old man in a teenage body.

    oh did I say romantic? I meant psychotic.

    Those books have a terrible message in them.

    Am I the only one who doesn't like New Years?? I just don't see the point really. I think we're staying in this year because we only get home the morning of the 29th, and have a wedding afters that day so I reckon we'll still be wrecked on the 31st

    I'm not a big fan of it anymore,my friends are trying to get me to go a bar in the city that's charging 18 euro to get in :eek: brax from home and away is gonna be there for an hr and then back at midnight for 5 minutes -_- and you don't get any free drink or food -_- I said no fairly quick !

    I don't think I'd pay 18euro to see him tbh. In fact, I wouldn't pay 18euro for any club!
