..that it simply isn't possible to come home sh!tfaced at 5:30 and make it to college for 9:00.

Yeh, been learning that lesson since Tuesday morning! Just getting over it now! I completely messed up my body clock by trying to catch up on sleep the next day by going straight to bed after college, and waking up the next morning and going straight in again, rolled over and gently woke up, ready for a few hours of lie-on, alarm goes off straight away! had to get up and grab a shower!

Also, a side note, learned my shower doesn't have hot water anymore, aswell as barely flowing. It's also very small. Was shivering so bad that morning!

Faith · 06-10-2006 07:24PM

I learnt that the Irish LC is rubbish compared to the English A-Levels. I learnt that I'm a complete idiot compared to the English students on my course.

I've learned that people's defenses will come down if yours come down too.

I learned today that even though she has the biggest, brownest, most beautiful eyes you've ever seen,
that chugger is not worth €12 a month.

Goddamnit, I swear I was salivating. I don't even know what the hell kind of cause I signed up for was!

That Jimi Hendrix wasn't Irish........I know thats it you just laugh - go on have a good laugh "feckers":rolleyes:.......

I don't know why the hell i thought he was Irish, but I was on Wikipedia and found out he was actually from Seattle.

Probably because of Noel Redding who lived in Clonakilty for years. He played with Hendrix (no idea if he was Irish though - too lazy to google it!)

Today I learned that while my girfriend hates cherries - together we still managed to polish off a black forest gateaux in one night. (I had thought it would last until Sunday). Now suspect black-forest gateaux is irresistable to everyone!

Lust4Life · 06-10-2006 11:43PM

I've learned that some of my co-workers who have been on the job for years are not very intelligent.

Oh.... I've also learned that Chamlis is quite silly when he's drunk!

Capt'n Midnight · 07-10-2006 12:59AM

That Dlink's DWL-G700AP doesn't do NAT and XP gets snotty about using a space as an SSID. And the Linksys BEFSR11 can be recovered after a failed attempt to flash it, and that it refuses to get a DHCP address from NTL BB router when you use a long cable :rolleyes:

Demetrius · 07-10-2006 01:01AM

I learned that with a slight spinal-nerve discomfort, one'e pelvis goes numb if one is on their feet all day.

Oh, and archiving sucks!!!:rolleyes:

Adam · 07-10-2006 02:01AM

I learned that you can be terribly attracted to a dutch girl and subsequently find out that she's secretly as nerdy as you are and think you've died and gone to heaven!

Agamemnon · 07-10-2006 06:27PM

I learnt that the war never really ended and that I've been curled up in a muddy trench for the past 15 months licking my wounds while the Forces Of Evil have strengthened their position. I also learnt that I have my fighting spirit back and this time I am going to WIN.

Not to be off topic, but I love the metaphor here. ^_^
That's the spirit; don't give up!

Don't worry you've done twice as many subjects as they have.

Oh and that the PC name for idiot savant is autistic savant. And that most of the early Bond Girls were dubbed over by the same woman.

What have you learnt today?
