French oral in a few days and sweet fúck all done. I'm clearing my desk tonight and going to leave a french book there to start on tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully that'll encourage me enough. I can't agree enough.Motivation cometh down upon me!

Seen them and met them a couple of times too (I've actually met a lot of the Irish bands I like, I'm not a stalker I swear ). One time they were doing a gig in HMV and then a signing. I already had the album so I asked them to sign a birthday card for a friend who also liked them. They probably thought I was a bit mad. Other quieter, more folky (sometimes) acts I love and that I'd say are worth checking out would be the likes of Lisa Hannigan, Villagers, Fionn Regan and James Vincent McMorrow. There's really such talent on this little island!

Never listened to James Vincent McMorrow but I downloaded some Villagers stuff ages ago to listen too. And I will definitely get the Codes album, love them! For some reason I actually really like Brendan by Little Green Cars. Their other stuff is okay but I prefer that song!

It's somewhat embarrassing that after 14 years of doing Irish in primary and secondary I'm going in to my orals more confident in French then Irish. Looking forward to that moment I come out of my French oral tuesday week knowing I never have to worry about speaking my hobbies, my school and my family in another language ever again.
