Week's extension on all assignments arrived at a grrreat time for me! (not to be flippant about all this flooding or anything)

shinysiren · 22-11-2009 08:08PM

My friend's studying down in Cork at UCC and she's upset about the pretty campus being ruined. How bad is it down there?

The main campus is okay, a spanking new IT building got completely flooded-computers and transformers destroyed apparently-apart from that the thing is a lot of student accommodation complexes had to be evacuated. I escaped it thankfully, my friend's house got hit pretty badly though. Fair play to our students' union though, they're really being great.

Had an auld walk around yesterday and the council was going around with drums of water to people's houses, I'm actually so lucky I didn't even lose power or water (so far, touch wood).

22-11-2009 09:04PM

I'm glad for you electro

...can't imagine anything more miserable than a flooded gaff.

How did the interview go Shiney?
Mine went really well

shinysiren · 22-11-2009 09:33PM

It went really well actually, she sort of unofficially gave me the job, but I won't be happy about it until I've officially got it. She may have just been one of those people who doesn't like disappointing someone to their face. *shrug*

Glad to hear you're doing ok electro~bitch, her house wasn't hit badly either, but she said she went to see her house from last year, and she would have had to swim down the road! She kept calling me and telling me that it looked very "Day After Tomorrow"-esque.

Tar.Aldarion · 23-11-2009 05:13PM

Well done on the interviews guys,
ERLANG presentation over, WOOO. What an hour, aaaahhh questions. I actually enjoyed it though! Getting good at these things :-p

shinysiren · 23-11-2009 06:27PM

Congrats Tar! I'm still awful at presentations, have a terrible habit of talking to my feet!

Tar.Aldarion · 23-11-2009 06:35PM

Well I set it up so that I had 2 screens with slides and a projector as well, on the screens I could see there was a time measurement thing, how long you were taking and previews of the next slide etc, very handy, helps you think and time yourself. Having a quick look at these and looking up is easier. First time I used that and was actually quite good!
Some peopel use hand held cards, they help them, I don't see the point, I suppose it's just practice! Started to enjoy it. The feeling after is great.
As for talking to your feet, I jsut don't focus on anybody in particular, apart from the lecturer to see what she likes and talk more about that. It's easier jsut to gaze at nothing, ahve some hand movements and blurt it out :-p
If you make them laugh that's good!

Now I have to write a business plan for making a company, this is horrible!

shinysiren · 23-11-2009 06:37PM

That sounds horribly professional Tar! I'm very impressed.

I haven't done a presentation in English for nearly a year though, I have to do them in French mostly,which presents its own problems.

i contemplated using a knife but i like my fingers, i really do!

shinysiren · 23-11-2009 07:16PM

Just start off doing it slowly and you probably won't lose a finger.

maameeo · 23-11-2009 07:21PM

nah... Tar is a whizz at peeling, he is a tater lover after all!

maameeo · 23-11-2009 07:21PM

In that case, just keep him about to do the peeling. I need to get someone to live with me who can lace a corset properly.....

cocoa · 23-11-2009 07:30PM

*looks up*

you never asked...

*heads off to build incredible corset lacing machine*

shinysiren · 23-11-2009 07:32PM

I don't need a machine, just someone with the ability to lace shoes (it's essentially the same), who'll help me. It's difficult to do yourself, I can't get far enough behind myself.....:p
