    Funny how boston scientific would send em to boston, what a coincidence!

    i'll get my coat!

    Anyway, seems people either love co-op or hate it. Seems theres no 'meh' middle ground.

    Hopefully mines ok, Localisation Engineer in Lionbridge in Blackrock, Dublin.

    Dunno where i'm staying yet

    EDIT: 100 posts w00tage!!

    I'm doing Mechanical Engineering.

    Going to Boston would be class - I know a few people there - one of my housemates is from Boston and he's just here for this semester.

    Can't wait for Coop, especially cos of having every weekend off :)
