First day back at it after a week sick - and think I spotted two boardies: Waltons and later on Grimes.

Welcome back! 9am on a Saturday...what a good first spot back . I noticed that there was no mention of my handwriting

Roll on Quant Economics for Monday and then I'm finished Hurray!

Land law today. It was grand. There was a lot to the paper but I think I answered it well. Besty did amazing.

Land law this morning. It went quite well so hopefully I can make up for my poor showing at commercial law yesterday!

All 3 law finished now and only one left on Friday!

PS: I didn't do amazing! Hullaballoo's modesty only exists online, he's the one who did amazingly

I'm sorry Waltons, but your handwriting just wasn't pretty Anyway, what I noticed though was your ring. Superman ring???!

And yeah, it's great to be back on a Saturday morning! I was so worried that I might sleep in and not hear the alarm clock, because I've had a mad sleeping pattern throughout the whole week, that actually I ended up being wide awake at 6am!!

Yeah, my handwriting is horrible I do, however, have a superman ring though! Well spotted

I was the exact same in regards to sleeping in. I set my alarm for 7.45 and was shaken awake by mein mutter at around 10 past 8 asking didn't I "have an exam to go to"

So, the big question. Which invigilator are you?!

OT: In retrospect, I am happy with my essays, considering guidelines given to us in tutorials

failsafe

Did anyone else do Financial Management on wednesday? I was told it was a guaranteed 1st but i was sceptical. The lazy (yet brilliant) lecturer sets a one question exam and rotates the same case studies, making it really easy to predit whats coming up. There was one case that everybody thought it would be, and we all just learned it off on wednesday morning.

There was a big cheer in the exam hall when the exam was given out and everyone turned over the first page!

Scraggs

My exam this morning wasnt too bad...I know I answered one out of the three really well so heres hoping it that makes up for the other two!

Waltons keeps ignoring me:(....I'm not totally crazy honest!

Oh and I think Rain_On was invigilating:)

Edit got the name wrong... twas MeowCat I think... one of those few people that give off that cool vibe:)

EDIT Take 2: I actually havent a clue who it was now ...but I know it was a boardsie!!

Waltons

Gah, I didn't ignore you again, did I?! :eek: Awfully sorry, old bean

Quant Economics went well, think I got an A.

Had a funny moment, seeing meowCat from across the hall

Yeah, poor Scraggs got haunted by the cat today: waited at the same bus stop this morning. Sat her exam in the cat's section. And got her id checked by the cat!!
We don't get to choose though which sections we do nor which rows we check the attendance, so don't worry, me no stalker!!

I recognised you right away from the pics, but I didn't know how you'd react if a total stranger says hi to you or starts smiling at you, early on a Monday morning before an exam! And in the exam hall you looked really focused on your paper -- though not that happy at times, so I decided to not confuse/disturb you by any smiling or so.
You seem to be happy with the exam now though.

Don't you guys also think that it was horribly COLD this morning in the Shelbourne hall?! I was FREEEEEZING!

snickerpuss

Irish art was decent though not helped by falling partially down a bus stairs this morning and wreaking the fingers on my left hand.
Pity it was the wrong one...

Pythia

Anyone else do Intermediate Micro today?
I think I did well, but I also think there was a mistake in question 3. Have emailed lecturer and will see what she says.

dajaffa

Anatomy practical was grand, but the examiner kept checking I palpated the right points which was soooooo off-putting.

Mostly due to the fact that I was contemplating sums and then realised that I'd been staring pretty much directly at you for a fair while

Strange - opto's usually by far the easier of the two. That said my FYP was opto so I was grand at it, but did he not make it as predictable as ever?

We got nailed by have two questions on lazers, no laser threshold current derivation, and no Avalance photo diode question!

History was so so. I think my nine years war question was good, my plantations was ok, my 1641 was whatever I could scrape together from doing an essay months ago.

Russia tomorrow will be the end of me. So not prepared.

were you in this afternoon? there was an actual cat in the exam hall. apparently people tried to lure it out with milk.

which one are you anyway? i must've been talking to/wandering along next to you at some stage by now.

exams today were quite boring. i hate MCQs - about a million people always forget pencils and erasers and i end up being a conveyor thereof for the entire exam.

Stepherunie

Survived equipment today - they were nice and put filtration on.

Now I just have to worry about hospital studies on thursday.

Irish Revolution - half of what I'd prepared didn't come up but still managed two good essays and two pages of waffle masquerading as my third. May not have been brilliant but I was reasonably pleased.

Chinafoot

Bleurgh. Exam wasn't great. Age of Charlemagne. Layout of the paper completely changed from previous years (the number of questions was halved!). Did one really good question, one alright question and my third was 4 pages of waffle based around 3 or 4 facts...:o

I think I did enough to get by though so fingers crossed I can pull it up in the next one.

Hermione*

Ugh, my paper had eight questions ... he doesn't like us to waste time choosing between a wide array of questions. Three of them I couldn't have answered if you'd paid me. My third question also had barely two pages, which worries me more now than it did in the exam. I don't think it had too many facts either. Still, hopefully, two out of three should cover me!

Scraggs

My exam this morning went fairly well I reckon. It was the one I was looking forward to the most coz its the subject I enjoy the most. The question on iriseoireacht/colúnaíocht was phrased differently than I had expected but I still think I did grand. The ceist on filíocht was absolutly wonderful -I couldnt have written a better one myself...I was so glad I was able to write about Cathal Ó Searcaigh coz if any of teh others came up I would have written some serious cac!

anonymous_joe

Is Cathal that fat gay poet from Donegal?

Scraggs

Yeah thats the one:p
One of the girls in my class is his neighbour and ya should have heard what she had to say about him... it was rather crude to say the least!

I think I was standing beside Aristotle for about 5mins or so in the restauranty place...too afraid to say Hi in case it wasnt him

Hermione*

Sin é

Edit: beaten by Scraggs. Must type faster

Umaro

Sin é!!

I vaguely remember learning off something about his poetry stemming from the emotional desolation of God-forsaken Donegal or something along those lines for the Leaving. Can't remember if I needed it or not, but it sounded good.
