Don't worry - I failed most of my MT exams last year, and I did grand in the end so relax.

People keep telling me things like that and I keep hearing them and understanding them, but being entirely unable to relate or apply them to me.

In response to Enda's post, I don't think you've done anything wrong. If the girl is being looked after properly, then you have nothing, about which to worry.

I did quite poorly in my SF MT exams too, including nearly failing Intermediate Macroeconomics. i went on to get a II.1 in Intermediate Economics in Schols. So there you go.

Was very nearly late for my exam this morning after going to the wrong bloody part of the RDS (I know, I know, entirely my own fault, but still, annoying). More annoying is the fact that my body has picked this week to finally get sick (I've been on the edge of a cold since about week 4). Ah well, at least this morning's exam went well...

Troglodyte · 12-12-2006 5:12pm

Exam didn't go particularly well this morning. Badly prepared and had a hangover (very stupid of me to go out last night). I'll be lucky if I pass, tbh. And the weather was bloody awful.

gargh forgot to ring the office thingy and find out if they want me to fill in their little form too...

Ok, deep breath hils

I agree with you on this though. Comments like this:

Right_Side wrote:

are pointless, mean-spirited and a likely deterrent to any of the people who browse here but never post - who wants to get a reaction as harsh as that to something as innocuous as Troglodyte's post?

Right_Side often drops into threads solely to say something spiteful about someone else; there's no effort to engage in what other people are saying and no useful contribution to the TCD board. He needs to cop himself on; if he dislikes what everyone is saying so much, then why bother posting at all? I doubt I'm the only one who wants to see an end to the petty and antagonistic posts that he seems to specialise in.

Oooh.

On another topic, I'm in the Hamilton Bulding. I wanted to look over some things before I go into my exam in Goldsmith Hall. However, the whole place is taken over with open day stuff. Where are these couches, of which you science-enders speak?

Pet · 13-12-2006 9:15am

Go up the stairs in front of the Panoz entrance and they're ahead of you.

europerson · 13-12-2006 9:16am

Thanks.

That's quite correct, I probably do deserve to fail.

However, the fact that you're right doesn't make you any less of a complete wanker.

No, we don't know each other (thankfully).

Could someone please do something very nasty to the driver of the pnuematic drilling thing between the Lloyd and O'Reilly buildings. They started at 6:45 this morning and haven't stopped since.....

Edwardius · 13-12-2006 12:34pm

Errrr, it's his job.

Edwardius · 13-12-2006 1:07pm

Tits. Think I got the plague, well dizziness, funny eyes and cold sweats anyway. dang.

Hey, I'm sure it pays the bills and the guy probably deserved it for stealing that loaf of bread. Apparently a head will twitch in response to hearing it's name several seconds after decapitation, so it probably hurts more than we give it credit for. Also, I doubt the guy with the drill is using it for the same purpose as our friend here, unless I'm missing something....funny!

No, he only deserves to fail if he doesn't know the course material.

Maybe it's because he's not doing so well in the Mens Lawn Tennis ladder.

Pet · 13-12-2006 4:32pm

Or maybe it's just because he's a cunt.

In other news, due to many parties this week, I have been unable to get any work done, and that's not looking likely to change for the next few days. The guilt, oh the guilt.

Rant? Heard this a while back, it's brilliant!

Right_Side · 13-12-2006 7:14pm

Troglodyte I'm so sorry for posting such a politically incorrect post. I really hope you pass your exam after preparing poorly and going out drinking the night before. You definitely deserve to pass over the other people who have been working hard.

Also, to everyone else I'm really sorry if I offend you by saying it as it is I will endeavour to reply in a more "charming" way.

Perhaps the mods might take a look at these posts though as they weren't exactly "charming":

With this sarcastic little post you've managed to pretty much confirm what I said about you. Now go away.

europerson · 13-12-2006 8:10pm

Let's just all calm down.

I have two exams tomorrow. What gives? It has forced me onto coffee, which is always a bad sign.

ApeXaviour · 13-12-2006 10:01pm

Right_Side banned for 2 weeks for trolling.

Time Magazine · 13-12-2006 10:12pm

Good man Apex! In Right_Side's defence, he seems like less of a prick in real life, but I've never really talked to him so I might be wrong.

Sangre · 13-12-2006 10:21pm

4000 word essays are gay, I've had enough, Im going home.
