    THAT WAS HORRIFIC.

    I had a feeling Heaney would show his face today!! :D knew I made the right decision not doing his poetry XD

    Did the A on Text 1, the B on text 3 and the story about a ghostly presence :D
    Went so, so well :D

    Text one was lovely for the A part :')
    Was debating doing text 2's B part but I love formal letters too much :pac:
    I had a plot for a story involving a ghost thought up from last night so the title worked perfectly <3

    I think my whole school answered question A on text 1 :pac:

    Nice paper overall! Wanted to do the letter but couldn't decided if it was formal or not so I did the talk :/

    Seamus Heaney showing up on Paper 1.. The plot thickens.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭Kyro


    I laughed when I saw Heaney. Now Dickinson surely has to come up haha.

    What were the choices for the B parts? I remember last year someone mentioning how an obituary was a likely option and of course I went to learn it because it was strange yet interesting :P

    Of course youd love that! :P
    a news bulletin, a class talk and a formal letter!

    Radio talk, Talk, Formal letter :P

    Why are you assuming Heaney won't come up tomorrow? Maybe putting him on paper 1 was to make him unexpected on paper 2...

    Regardless...still going in with my four poets and Heaney is one of them :p

    What can I say? T'is my inner emo shining through!

    Class talk is always a favourite for me. Class talk about the influence someone had on your life I'd guess?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 112 ✭✭Kyro


    Seems like most people did A from Text 1? I did mine from Text 2 and B from Text 1.

    The positive and negative influences on young people in society, I believe.

    Influences in the lives of young people today, positives and negatives. Easy peasy :P

    Regret doing my A question from text 3 :L loved the short story titles!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61 ✭✭iWin1010


    Well I'm glad that's over!
    It actually was a fairly nice paper.
    I did Text 1 Section A, Text 2 Section B and Ghost short story.
    My timing went out the window however but I managed to finish all 3 sections :)
    Only problem is I didn't have time to read over my answers.. :(

    Smashing paper.

    I'd actually be so disappointed to do that as a question B because it came up as a personal essay in 2003 (possibly 2005) and I wrote such a good essay I wanted to frame it :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,222 ✭✭✭Calvin


    SEC taking the piss by putting Heaney on paper 1 instead of paper 2....rats :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 574 ✭✭✭a0ifee


    I loved the article about irish people's obsession with weather!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 256 ✭✭Saskatchewan


    Got a mention in paper 1.... Who knew I was so famous :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 42 K6Y


    Omg those essays were horrible, I was looking through the past 10 years yesterday and there was always at least one decent personal essay or article but this year they were all rubbish.. ended up doing a badly written 4 page descriptive essay (which I've never done before) on the 'exotic things in life'... fml
