    Loved your man from havok's presentation. Very well done.

    Got in early for the first round of lectures, smack bang in the middle:) Hate to have had to stand.

    We should facebook each other, that way we'll be able to pick each other out, as I dont feel like going round using a codeword all day/week:p

    Me too :)

    :pac: Huzzah!
    Nice username, I like VU or at least VU&N (think that's the name of the album . . . the one with the Warhol cover). Will hopefully get to see you freshman week and we get to chat about our presumably obscure tastes over a pint or two, assuming you aren't lying about drink being one of your interests (couldn't help but notice) :D
    ps. speaking of drink being an interest am currently training to become a barman in TGI's part time, so if you ever want to hit me up for a decent cocktail to prepare for the lady's or yourself holler ;)

    'Tis indeed the album, and your recognition of my username is a very positive first impression. I expect we'll get along very well! :P
    We shall have to discuss expanding your horizons beyond VU&N, though. :D
    And drinks should never stop at two. :)

    What course requires you take a blood test?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,937 ✭✭✭mardybumbum


    All the health science courses require the applicant to be screened for Hepatitis B s antigen, anti HB core antigen, and a plethora of other tests.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 338 ✭✭ajjmk


    Is anyone else doing the course in Chemistry from the 13th-17th September? I hadnt realised that not doing Chemistry in the LC would be that big of a deal when doing Engineering.. :(

    I am =] I was actually seeing it as an opportunity to pretty much meet some engineering people before anything even starts :)
    Planning on missing the last day though as my debs are the day before!

    I doubt it'll be such a huge problem that we didn't do chemistry for the LC.

    Yeap. And I've already a blood test awaiting me for a different issue. That means like 3 tests at least in 2 weeks...

    So I'm starting occupational therapy and as far as blood tests and vaccinations go I wasn't given a form like the other health sciences such as physiotherapy got. Does anyone know if I can use one of those forms or is a letter from my doctor enough?
