I presume they then proceeded to the Buttery Bar for a pint of stout.

Oh, doubtless. You know, I don't like him much as a lecturer, but I have to admit he's truly hilarious. I nearly died from trying not to openly laugh during his explanation of assymetric information through lemons - "poor-quality cars, or to use a more American expression, 'automobiles'" - do you think he realises how insane he sounds half the time and plays up to it? Or is he actually a little bit crazy?

On the notes of zaraba and europerson above: Woohoo! It's nearly Christmas, and as it's past the 1st of December, it's now acceptable to enjoy that fact and sing carols accordingly. I look forward to closing every night out for the next three weeks with "Fairytale of New York"! And I mean that genuinely!

Three woo-hoos:

-My Italian flatmate's mammy [a legend in the kitchen] came over for a week, and cooked dinner for all of us last night and will be doing so again tonight. She's awesome. Hurrah for homemade Italian food!

-I would like to take this opportunity to rave about the learning support service, who are truly fantastic. They sit you down, sort your **** out and show you how to actually do work. Plus, they keep you on track, which some people [for example, yours truly] desperately need. Go LSS!

-My tutor is a Hugh-Laurie-lookin' legend.

Work gave me this large safety mug thing (with a lid and all) and I've had so much tea today it's insane. I used to drink two or three a day out of the tiny polystyrene cups, but this thing is probably closer to a pint and I've had around 3 cups full today. Weeeeee.

Wee indeed.

I'm listening to recordings made by FoT over a year ago. They're damn good ones, too. It was worth the wait, definitely.

John · 05-12-2007 07:53PM

Agreed, they're great and you can all listen to them here:

I am now only one pharmacognosy and four biochemistry lectures away from freedom for a month! Woohoo! What will I dooo with all this free time?

(say study and I'll kill you.)

Time Magazine · 06-12-2007 01:44PM

Woot, 4000th post on this thread.

Darnit! I was so close!

Congrats, Neil.

You got the 4000th reply though! (And it was actually Enda)

Woohoo! Only 4 hours left of work tomorrow, then work drinks & pizza & food & more drinks & more food & more drinks!

I'm in the Hamilton Library, which is super-quiet today, but I was stirred by a steam train crossing over the bridge across Trinity's north-east corner: it was noisy and steamy. It looked cool against CRANN.

europerson · 08-12-2007 01:27PM

Here is the train in question.

xebec · 08-12-2007 01:29PM

It's passed by a few times recently, it really does look cool seeing the old train against the new CRANN.

paperclip · 08-12-2007 02:12PM

What's the best vantage point for me to see this?

ApeXaviour · 08-12-2007 02:15PM

The O'Reilly Institute I imagine. Top floor of the lloyd could be good too.

Podge_irl · 08-12-2007 03:24PM

It used to pass by quite regularly last summer. All the steam/smoke used to come in my window in Goldsmith as I was right beside Pearse station.

xeduCat · 08-12-2007 05:56PM

I took that train from Dublin to Wexford last year. Was a great day out.

Crash · 10-12-2007 12:19AM

I finally made a fair bit of progress in my FYP over the weekend - good steps forward.

I now have two graphics cards driving 12 screens off the same scene - still needs tweaking to get lots of stuff working, but any of the other comp folk will know that this is a pain in the arse :P

as a rant bit though, i dislike coding DirectX stuff.

Agent Smith · 10-12-2007 12:26AM

i finally bought ram for the pc in the study in my house

BUT

i cant remember the Admin password to the pc in the study in my house, and I want to reinstall xp on it

Tricity Bendix · 10-12-2007 05:08PM

I am kay-nackered.

I don't know how anyone has the energy to be full-time boyfriend. I think I could sleep for a week.

Still, woo-hoo for a great weekend of tourguiding and romancing.

The Black Oil · 10-12-2007 07:22PM

My aunt got engaged.:)

Time Magazine · 13-12-2007 02:48AM

Woohoo to access to further parts of College!!

Not only were there photographs taken in the Goldsmith Sky-Bridge with a certain much-loved chess player, there was then further exploration that may lead to great things in the future.

I will never grow tired of walking across that (especially after it sat there taunting me all of last year).

Honey, even after storming off, I called you and invited you to the Place of Mystery.

there are people abseiling in the ussher... some poor foreign student got a bit of a fright when the window cleaner landed on his desk!

Heh, yeah. I think my last words were something akin to 'I am not in a bad mood!' before stalking away. I'm such a tool.

Anyway, you're dead to me because you wrote me out of the skybridge tale. Just because I'm not hunky and Czec. Cry.
