    I've realised today that I am pure interested in a lad I work with, which in itself probably isn't great; no honey where you make money, but it's good because it means I think that I'm finally over my ex

    HURRAY

    That's an important step. I've been unattached almost a year now and a few weeks ago I tried to convince myself "You seem... single...?" was an acceptable chat up line.

    Scientific journals are yet to identify apathy as a pheromone.

    I've been single over a year now and I'm beaming that I did because I feel like I've grown into myself you know? :cool:

    Someone seeming single is always a good sign :D:D;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,891 ✭✭✭iamanengine


    The first while after a break up can be rough but I think the sadness soon or at least eventually turns into relief when you realise you're better off, and hey, being single ain't all that bad :)

    Yay for us singletons!

    Finally got confirmation that I have a house to move into once my lease here is up. I need to scrape a deposit together pretty sharpish, but yay for not having to go looking for houses again. :)

    I'm playing the best football I've played in a long time since changing position and feel the fittest ever. And I'm getting a haircut in the morning.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,068 ✭✭✭LoonyLovegood


    I get to see one of my best friends tomorrow. And then I get to queue outside Tesco for an hour so my sister can get her hands on the CAO points. (She's also promised the LC forum that she'll get them, so I HAVE to now)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,009 ✭✭✭✭wnolan1992


    I have to ask... why would you need to queue at Tesco to get the CAO points?

    Obviously they sell the next days papers very early that night/late the night before!

    I feel bad for not knowing this "obvious" fact now. :P


    Srsly though, you could not have paid me enough to queue for a newspaper when I did my LC. I mean, the papers realistically don't arrive until what, 2-3am? And people can check their offers at 6am? People needs to chill. :pac:


    Yah: Speaking of Tesco, I got cheesecake slices from them. My good lord they're bloody epic.

    A friend of mine done that for herself, her course turned out to be 495* (only some who got 495 got in if anyone doesn't remember CAO) and she had 495 points, poor girl had an hour and a half of absolute torture before getting in

    Personally, I think I made the right decision by just sitting in my warm bed listening to happy music all night the night before offers came out. :P

    Leaving Certs be crazy.

    I'm glad I had zero CAO points anxiety. My first choice was the lowest honours degree points course in the whole country. Got 120 points more than I needed. :D

    Heh, now that you say that, that could be the reason I'm so confused about this... I was 175 over the previous years points for mine and ended up with 140 to spare. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,068 ✭✭✭LoonyLovegood


    I was in Wales when my offer came out, CONVINCED I wasn't going to get my course. Look how things change?

    But yeah, the poor thing is petrified, so it'll be at Tesco for about 4am so she can tell if she got the course or not.

    Jesus I'd have died (not literally :pac: ) if that was me. The * just means completely random selection of those with those points doesn't it? So cruel, imagine having the points but just happening to not get your dream course like.

    Then again I got the course I wanted and regret picking it. :pac: At least that's entirely my fault though. :P

    The year after that was my turn. I'm a night guy anyway so being up until 5/6 is nothing new to me so I obviously did it CAO night. I was a HEAR student so CAO points didn't really matter to me, seen the points at about half 4 and was 65 off the CAO cutoff, and I had resigned myself to my number 2 choice. Queue me getting my number 1 at 6:01 and losing the rag :P

    Fecked things up when in college though and about to defer my medical repeat for the 2nd year in a row (if it's even possible, been putting it off since Thursday) so not every happy CAO story has a happy ending


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,157 ✭✭✭✭HugsiePie


    Shes not taking it but my sister set the point barrier for the course she has down as her no. 1 :P

    I was one of those crazy people who went to the shop at 7am the morning of the cao offers. In my defense my post doesn't come till around 11, at the time the internet was down at our house (stupid middle of nowhere internet) and i was doing a new course and had no previous years points to compare my results with.

    Now, that I could understand, since it's not THAT unreasonable to go to a shop at 7am.

    But I dunno, I'm just never going to get going to a shop at 4am to try and get an early copy of a paper rather than just wait until 6 (it was 6 the year I did it IIRC, sorry if that's wrong)...

    But hey, whatever makes the kidz happy I guess! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,068 ✭✭✭LoonyLovegood


    She was the most popular person on the LC forum last night!

    She got the two courses she's looking for, so see what she decides. It's gonna be a LOOOOOOONG week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 468 ✭✭oseia


    She must have so many thanked posts after that. :pac:

    Fair play to her offers-wise!

    I was really worried about something that was completely outside my control, but it turns out that it actually went far better than expected and I'm so thrilled about it! (I have to be vague, but yeah, good stuff happening)

    We had Christmas dinner in our house last night. I made potato gratin with parmesan and rashers sprinkled over it, sage and onion stuffing with sausage meat, and a beef wellington (beef slathered in mustard, wrapped in a layer of mushrooms, a layer of ham and a layer of pastry). One of the lads did caramelised veg, and one of the girls did appetisers.

    Couple all that with cheesy Christmas music, Christmas crackers and alcohol, and it was a good evening.

    I made chocolate cookies then for dessert, and we all collapsed in the sitting room and watched Home Alone followed by A Christmassy Ted on the projector.



    Oh, and I think I'm finally finished my Christmas shopping now.

    OH! And this new fabric softener I'm using smells heavenly.


    Everything's coming up wnolan atm! :pac:
