    I went to college for the buzz and to do a degree in something I thought (and still think) is really damn cool. However, 60k a year sounds really nice right now.

    Hear, hear.

    Wish UCD changed the colour of their student cards every year. Instead it's always the same bland white b*llocks, with that embarrassingly rubbish crest on it as well... Utter cack.

    Still... We weren't complaining when you lot had that pink one, that was hilarious...

    Dunno about that now. One lad in particular who gave me a bit of grief just bought a decently sized apartment (including a "room for the kids" :rolleyes: ) and is close to running his own sparky business. Top it off he's younger than me.

    But you will get to call yourself 'Dr. ApeX' - and wait for the oncoming recession.. then see who is laughing

    i got smart ****ers from other colleges asking me if it was just the nurses who got pink student cards.
    green wasn't so bad.

    Nurses? They're probably gold-plated.

    Just wondering, who decides on the colour of the card? Surely the students should at least have some say....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭Peleus


    aww, i didnt notice half this thread was from last year. i had my heart set on blue for this year... i bet it's silver!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,297 ✭✭✭Ron DMC


    I thought we had figured out the rotation at one stage.

    /starts counting back the years.

    My mistake, it's only nearly a pattern, but we haven't seen silver in a while, so that's where my money is.

    I'm hoping that this year they'll go for a change and make it patterned...a red white and blue coloured cross pattern would be jolly well spiffing I think.

    It was Orange is your first year wasn't it? So it's unlikely to be Orange again so soon. Since I've been in college there's been pink, green and blue. So silver would be a nice change, they're not likely to do yellow are they? Yellow, with their preference for faded shades, would be horrible. When was it last purple?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Purple would be nice. >.>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 889 ✭✭✭Bajingo


    Why do they change it every year?Seems like a bit of a waste...but all the same green or silver for me

    So that they can easily see who are the current students and who are the chancers using expired cards.

    Why do they change the colour of the car tax disc each year?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,434 ✭✭✭the flananator


    Please please please let it be orange.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 114 ✭✭scruttocks


    we need a man on the inside... a double agent if you will, who knows this sort of thing.

    I want a glow in the dark one, or one with glitter

    /me sees a new line for the SU manifestos next year...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭shay_562


    SOL for SU President! (I know you're a postgrad, but still...)

    To be honest, nothing so far has been worse than my first year card - pink is just too easy for others to mock. I know I said upthread that purple would probably be too dark, but the Student Travelcards for 2008 are purple and orange and actually look decent enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,699 ✭✭✭Brian


    How about a nice British Racing Green.
