    I'd like black, just like I said last year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,361 ✭✭✭bythewoods


    Black's so bland though... Eugh

    I want a rainbow student card. Bet that's what it'll be... surely they've run out'a colours by now!

    Our student cards look fairly shíte, regardless of colour.

    Just throwing that out there.

    Red would be lovely.

    Meh, the last red didn't look amazing - looked more pink than anything. The blue wasn't too bad, but I'd go for a darker blue.

    Anyone else wish they got a new picture this year?
    I look so irrationally angry in mine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,361 ✭✭✭bythewoods


    No way, I was having a (VERY rare) good hair day when I got mine taken, so I want it to last for at least 1 more year, as proof that I don't ALWAYS have a Lion's mane.

    I look like I have cancer in mine.

    I'll wait for Jonathan's prediction again, he's two for two thus far.

    I'm going to pray that you're wrong. :P

    Although I could almost make an Irish flag between the two years! \o/ I'd still prefer blue or purple though.

    It'll match the fake tan that the fake "D4 wimmin" who like to impersonate the Oompa Loompas.

    Side note: I actually hope it is - the shinners will have a fit (hopefully - it's funny).

    Eh, me!! I look shockingly hungover in my one. Because I was shockingly hungover that morning. :o Damn Mature Student Society and their free wine.

    So they give you a new card every year but they stick with the same photo for your time there?

    Better make it a good one. I always manage to f$%k up passprt photos!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,979 ✭✭✭Jammyc


    Damn, was hoping for a new photo this year. I have the kind of "take the photo now, for fooks sake" look going on in mine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 484 ✭✭brownacid


    You get the option of retaking your photo when you go into third year.

    The photo taken in first year lasts for the first two years of college. So, repeats excluded, you should get a new photo for third year to last your final two years. You do get a new card every year though. :)

    But you don't have to get it retaken, right?

    While I'm here, can anyone tell me what date freshers' week starts? Or if there's a calendar for the year going around, I'd appreciate it.

    September 20th I think. Lectures and shizz start on the 27th...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭ohthebaby


    Damn, I thought we got a new picture. I look completely different and a lot more awful in mine than I actually do now. Not that it matters really but still.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,445 ✭✭✭jd83


    ITs impossible to get a nice picture on ids i think the people taking them wait til you look the worst and then snap.

    It was red in 08/09. I'm gonna guess blue.

    So, apparently it's blue, from what I've been told (not sure what shade! :P). Apologies if I'm wrong, but it seems to be the case anyway!

    My vote is with blue. Apparently they have a simple rota.
    I'd love a black one tho..

    It seems they do have a simple rota. It'll be red (pink) again next year then green the year after!!

    I dunno, I've been here a few years and it seems almost arbitrary to me:

    '01 silver
    '02 Green
    '03 Blue
    '04 Orange
    '05 Pink
    '06 Green
    '07 Light Blue
    '08 Red
    '09 Green
    '10 Blue (?)

    At my old college they'd say 'What do you think of U2?' and when you made your scrunched-up-and-ambivalent face in response they'd take the photo.
