The woman found dead in Lucan this morning was a former teacher of mine.

Awayindahils

Ed i actually found the first comment really out of line. One of the most influential teachers i ever had either commited suicide or was murdered and was dead in her house for a week before someone found her.

Crash

Ed, out of ****ing line. cop on. posts deleted.


Really sorry to hear that hils.

Edwardius

maybe a little. Oopsie. I had an ex teacher get a fatal dose of the cancer and wasn't too bothered, so was assuming teachers didn't figure too highly on the old "sad when they're dead" list. Lookin at it now, I suppose it's different, especially seein as you liked her and she was actually murdered and not found for a week. Sorry about that.

God damn wild kittens in the hedge in my back garden. I only caught one and it clawed the ****ing hands off me. My friend's meant to be picking them up tomorrow, and eh, they're completely wild, and in my hedge, where I can't get them. ****.

Still homeless. Need house by tuesday. Show up to view house, shake hands with potential housemate, look at house, offer deposit "hmmm, well I've arranged to talk to some more people this evening", see woman entering house to view after I leave. Shit. Yet another reason to embrace mysoginy.grrrr.

Having to get up at 5.30 in order to make first train at c. 6.17 in order to get to trinity for 7 in order to get locker. What a pain in the arsé. I first said: " 7, no bother"; now ive actually realised what a pain it is. End of Moan

Grrr Goddamn repeats. All my friends are gone on ahead. It's like starting college all over again. Bo-rse. (It's a cross between b*llox and arse).

misefreisin

i have been turfed out of my degree. apparently you need a 35% average in repeats to be allowed repeat the year. that is two years of my life i am never getting back. pissed off? MUCH.

The_Radiator

What course and year are you going into? Is it your second time repeating Misefresin?

It is now October, which means that college is starting soon, which also means that study is starting soon. Bah.

Get onto your tutor and be prepared to put on your best puppydog eyes/cry. Make it look like you want to do the course more than you want your next meal/a full house of limbs. I know some people for whom this worked.

Edit. Still homeless. Must wait till every house seeking female is accomodated before I even get a bloody chance. What people don't seem to realise is that chicks are as messy, if not moreso, than lads. Damn them all (except for recreational purposes).

To lighten things up a bit, College is back!! Woohoo!

Oh and Freshers' Week has started. Europerson and b.ie curious came out the schticks with me. I hereby bags the first October 2nd party photo.

ApeXaviour

Moan I'm up too, but only cos I have to be in work (well project work, sitting in an office reading scientific papers or in a lab fiddlin with laser and other instruments) at 9. Which is 8am GMT. Not exactly much of a time difference but it's enough to make you grumpy

John

I'm up three. I've got classes in TCD all day today and tomorrow. So I'll be there for fresher's week but stuck in the Hamilton building

Pet

I was up early too, I have loads of **** To Do today; find a stand in tutor, explain my tale of woe, get my **** from home to halls, hope to god my internet has been switched on, unpack, etc. No fun fresher's week for me. :-/

There are still options out there that don't require living in a house / apartment. You could:

1. Buy a barge and live on the Grand Canal.

2. Buy a tent and camp out on the cricket grounds.

3. Squat in the SU place in house 6, tell them you're an anarcho-socialist living a lifestyle contrary to societal norms to fight the system, they'll probably let you stay.

4. Become a member of the travelling community

5. Live on the streets

You see, no need to panic at all

I got a mate who's actually seriously talking about doing that in oxford

2. Buy a tent and camp out on the cricket grounds.

Might do that. Gonna plough it and sew spuds on it too, and protect the tent with landmines.

3. Squat in the SU place in house 6, tell them you're an anarcho-socialist living a lifestyle contrary to societal norms to fight the system, they'll probably let you stay.

I ain't no hippy. I'll shoot the ****ers and take the place over though...

4. Become a member of the travelling community

I hate travellers

5. Live on the streets

Slept rough before by accident (got coma'd up drinking) no plans to do it again any time soon.

Got the sister's couch for the week. Gotta move before the inevitible fight!

Edwardius

Damn freshers. Jailbait standards are down too !

If you can't get one, go to the Senior Tutor's Office here.

My timetable is meh at best. Looks like I'm going to have to quit my job - I'm in until 7pm two evenings, 6pm on Tuesday and 5pm on Monday. My shifts generally start at 6pm and it takes more than an hour and a half to get home at peak traffic times.

And after I went in to the library to see what the story was for a job they informed me today that the queue to work for them is about twelve months' long. So much for me and my six weeks.

Shit.

Seriously dodgy picture, Enda.

RagShagBill

So here's the thing.

In my morning fervour, this JF forgot to recheck the list of things I had to attend. I knew Italian was on at 12pm, and I knew it was on the 5th floor of the Arts Block. However, I couldn't remember the exact room, and being - at that stage - an entirely sober JF, I was too shy to approach anyone. In brief, I missed the hour long Italian thing.

Will this prove fatal? Or is it All Good?
