Is there any societies for the non sporty people? :P

General rule

Societies = interest things like game soc, disney soc, fem soc etc

Clubs= sports things like football, rugby, swimming etc

so yes, yes there is

Anyone else living in Beaufield Lawns? Looking forward to getting to know the neighbours.

Crescent, Beaufield is a grand spot.

So sick of it that I moved up on Sept 2nd.

Anybody know how to work out a 1st year Arts timetable?

I kept getting 4 modules and no tutorials.

Figured out I was doing both semesters!
Haven't picked subjects yet but I'm thinking geography and french are most likely 2 of the 3.
Will we get a proper timetable at registration?

What do we bring to registration and what are ye bringing to yer accommodation?:)

Yeh have to bring a few bits of paperwork or copies of them and a way of identification ie passport.

I'm not bringing too much for the start, towels, pot & pan, few other bits for the kitchen and just bedsheets and that.
Don't want to clutter with everyone else so see what's the story with them and there's a tesco up the road i think for things i don't have.
You heading up on your own?

Yeah might do the same! Are you gonna stay up for the whole of orientation week? Yep I am :L are you?

Lol after inviting all my secondary school friends to stay over any night they want throughout the college year and now I read the campus agreement saying overnight guests are strictly not allowed. Gonna have to hope they all forget that offer <.<

Haha. That's funny.

Depends largely on your subjects.
When I was in first year I had one law tutorial a week, one Irish tutorial a week and one every second week and two French tutorials. Plus an hour language lab each for Irish and French.

What subjects are you planning on doing?

Well geography and French were ones I was planning on but I haven't picked a third. At the moment I want to go on and do primary teaching so I was thinking Nua Gaeilge (Even though i detest irish) or history maybe even psychology :L that's how undecided I am haha

Right, well if you're doing languages, prepare for more tutorial hours. That's just something you're gonna have to put up with. It's worth it, though, because they'll help with your grammar and language skills, immensely.

If you detest Irish, by the way, I don't think I'd recommend doing it in college. You really won't do yourself any favours if you pick up a subject you hate, and you won't get any joy out of it either.
All your subject choices sound solid enough, though. I think it's one tutorial a week for history, but MCR can point you in the right direction on that one!
