yeah i agree, even though there was some strange things in it it was definitely one of the better books..although i may be saying that because i had a really good teacher too

Chick

buttery

ditto on the nice teacher she was surprisingly cool for a chemistry teacher!
Come to think of it dont think i ever used the revision book either, except the day of the mocks maybe :S in a blind panic wen i realised how little i actually knew

Pet

Well I had a fairly rubbish teacher for 5th year, so my 6th year teacher had about 75% of the course to get through, I can't really blame her for not going into enough detail or making it boring. She WAS very nice however.

That book...it was good, but there was SOME amount of shyte in it. Reams and reams of waffle. Thank god I never have to go back to it again..

Thats me out so lol

Ooh, a fellow vegetarian??

Chick

Chick

Heh, yeah. When I was at my debs, my friends thought it would be funny to sneak some meat into my risotto, as if I ate one bite of it I would die or something.

I don't take proper care of my nutrition though, I don't get half enough protein. If I go back to athletics I'll probably have to go back to meat too I spose.

Chick

buttery

yeak kinda worried bout my debs. here you go, here's a plate of lettuce for you :S.

If you dont eat meat ur supposed to take iron and protein -apparently! youd think id know more after takin vitamins n ****e for the past 18 years wouldnt ya

It depends on the hotel I suppose. You want to make sure they know beforehand so they can cater for you. but there's probably other vegetarians in your year..

I do take vitamin pills but not enough protein.

Meh.

Chick

Yeah we had to order meals ages ago, so they do know. theres only me and one other girl out of like 100 people!
The hotel seems really nice from what ive seen anyway. its in bloody newgrange tho... bit of a trek!

Are you sure it's not THE Newgrange Hotel, in Navan? That's where I went, the food & band were very good, and Solar (the niteclub afterwards) wasn't too bad either (although it stank of filthy Navan boggers).

Chick

buttery

Yeah Pet it is THE Newgrange hotel in Navan, sorry if it looked like i meant somewhere else! Glad you had a nice time there, at least know I'll now what to expect

Oh dessertcircus -i read that page u have a link to. I have nothing at all against ppl who eat meat, and i dont not eat meat because of cruelty or whatever. i just dont realy like it to be honest lol! oh and if i did eat meat i dont think id feel guilty about it either.

John

buttery

It's a classic page though. I really liked the fact that he got emails complaining that he mispelt "insane", that was hilarious.

David19

Lol yeah the insane part was very funny. I've been reading that maddox site for a few months now. Its funny.

Chick

buttery

Id never heard of it b4, like the look of it tho!

sleepingbeauty

buttery
