    I usually just grab insects and put them out the window. They're harmless.

    If you kill a spider, you've effectively ended any hope of obtaining 625.

    Oh well.

    I killed a giant moth one time, I mean this guy was the size of a golf ball, at least. The disturbing part was feeling it's bones crush. Sorry, I don't enjoy ending lives, but you cannot be that big and scary and in my home and not expect a tragic end.

    HAHAHA. oh god


    This one time I was in English with my friend and there was a tiny spider dangling from the roof, so it was hanging right in front of us. So we grabbed the end of the web/stringy thing it was hanging from and started moving around, messing with it, it didn't seem to care. Then all of a sudden it SHOT like a bullet at my friend's face, I didn't even know spiders could propel themselves through the air at supersonic speed before that. :L

    That reminds me of when they used the unforgivable curses on the three spiders in Harry Potter. :( </3

    Got a bursary, they go through all the EU applicants and award it to the one with the 'strongest cultural background'. I've been to Dáil na nÓg and the like, so I got it!

    I'm the exact same, everyone was stressing about how squished together their exams were and I was laughing them going 'haha, I have 5 whole days to study for chemistry, hate to be you!' Now they're all finished. Oh, how the tables have turned :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,778 ✭✭✭leaveiton


    In the same boat with chemistry, thought 3 days and Tuesday morning was loads of time. Haven't done anything :( And there was me thinking I could get an A.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,391 ✭✭✭Mysteriouschic


    It seemed like a good idea with the days the 6days I had in between. Maybe it's not and just made me procrastinate even more. I wish I was off already :(.
    I've not put the days of to good use. I just decided I need a break from all the studying that it'll do me good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 921 ✭✭✭reznov


    Chemistry's grand. As long as you write your CAO Number, you're good to go.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,813 ✭✭✭Togepi


    I got to shake hands with one of my teachers after chatting about the exam and thanking them for everything. It was magical. <3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,576 ✭✭✭Coeurdepirate


    My Irish teacher and I hugged at the grads, and me and my French teacher are pretty much a couple :p
