It's to ensure that there is a good mix of beliefs etc. You should provide accurate information in order to ensure the right people get appropriate support.

Wow settle down there tough guy, try make sense of your own comments before you start with the big dick slinging.

earwax_man · 13-09-2012 06:05PM

What the hell is wrong with you guys? It's a pre-freshers' week introduction thread, not a thread in which to show how much of a dick you are.

Anyhow, I'm Edmond. Most people call me Ed for short. I'm from Cork, and am 18. I'm studying engineering and I don't know anyone in Trinity [yet]. I like languages and stuff. I'm very shy, so if you happen to see a very tall guy at a language stand or anything else a bit odd with brown hair, don't be afraid to talk to me.

I love baking, so I'll bake you goodies if you're nice

I apologise for my recent comment, which has since been removed. I didn't intend it to be taken up like that, although now it is hard to see how it couldn't be taken up that way

WOOO! Another guy doing HHD.. we're a few and far between bunch, not many of us going around!

skyscraperblue · 14-09-2012 08:39PM

Hi there! I seem to be a bit late to this thread...

But yeah. I'm Karen, doing Maths, getting the train from Laois everyday

I know exactly ONE person that's going to Trinity, and I think she has a bunch of her own friends to hang around with, so ye can basically consider me as by myself! But hopefully freshers week will change that.
Speaking of. Other people who are alone & not living in halls, what on earth is the plan for freshers?! Are people literally just gonna wander around?

Good to see that Im not the only one, im sure theres tonnes of people in our situations, freshers will be grand anyway, just congregate around all the awkward looking people lurking in shady corners, chances are, thats us boardsies

Can't wait for Monday! Should be a blast. Don't know anyone doing my course though ( Science) .

Unfortunately due to the My tcd portal being ridiculously slow , it hasn't updated itself with the correct course and I'm unable to complete my registration.

Edit: so it actually turns out I don't to complete registration till after selecting modules. Which is grand. But I wish the my tcd portal would display science as my accepted course and not engineering.

Hello there fellow science student! What modules will you be choosing to study? I've settled on maths and physics , with geography as a likely candidate for my remaining credits.
Maths and physics cuz I really enjoy learning about them and with geography as a sort of half interesting filler. It's either geography or biology and I really dislike biology despite it being somewhat interesting.

I'm going to be doing maths, chemistry and biology, probably one of the most common choices :P Biology was my favourite subject in school, I find maths really interesting and chemistry I could take or leave sometimes but I really really hate geography so chem it is :pac:

Hi everyone

I bought mine online.

NSNO · 15-09-2012 07:30PM

I got mine online last year - it's grand. No reason not to do it that way, really.

I think my dislike of biology is due to the way it was taught to me in fifth and sixth year. My teacher was a bit crazy and I really didn't enjoy the class. I spent most of the time half asleep. Agree with you on Maths. I absolutely love it. After a summer without it I hope I'll be able to get pick it up again quickly.

For me picking the last module was the hardest , as I didn't want to do any of them , yet still had to choose one.
