    True.
    You don't realise how things work here. Seb is a different specie to all other students. Seb studies or generally does any work = fails, Seb does absolutely nothing like a bum = Honours!
    Also true.:D

    Only got one result back for the (few) assignments I did this semester; 60%/B-

    Score.

    Yeah I have one 5,000 word essay due for the day before. Definitely have to start going to the liberry this week, the procrastination has gone far enough!

    Hope I get that Invigilation job I put in for too. €13 an hour - not to be sniffed at.

    Indeed, and you can easily bump it up by accepting bribes too.

    Oh dear, I just spent the last two hours making Christmas tree decorations out of paper and crayons playschool style to put on the tree I made out of a large twig. My mental age has dropped considerably. The worst thing is technically I'm meant to be the mature one but it was my idea :/

    Ah procrastination... the one thing that makes the brain cancer that is the PvP section of the World of Warcraft forums readable.
    I procrastinate at a PhD level!

    The radio and the planning of my move out packing are tearing me away from networks and mammo stuff today - focus i cannot.

    Damn it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,755 ✭✭✭elmyra


    In between exams on wednesday I had four hours of perfectly good cramming time. I went out to the car to get away from the noise of the RDS and everything...and then proceeded to spend four hours watching people reverse park and giving them marks out of 10. If I fail, on my head be it, apparently I don't fear it enough to do anything about it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    I don't seem to get The Fear (tm) any more about exams, this is NOT a good thing. I used to rely on it to make me study...


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    Yea that has left me too. Just a sort of stoic acceptance now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭snickerpuss


    I think never having christmas exams in college before is making my brain not really believe that i have one tommorrow morning. It just won't learn. And i'm on boards. Again! Argh!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,158 ✭✭✭Stepherunie


    I went to Dundrum, then I went to the movies then I went to the pub, I feel good!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,270 ✭✭✭singingstranger


    It's surprising how often I get people on my MSN wondering what they can do to bring the fear back.

    I tend to point them here and ask them to visualise their parents' faces when a certain financing question needs to be asked.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,053 ✭✭✭Cannibal Ox


    Why have I spent the past half hour rolling dice across my table, just to see how many times I can get all sixes to come up when I have an exam in two hours?
    I tend to point them here and ask them to visualise their parents' faces when a certain financing question needs to be asked.
    I looked at that, and the dice predict that my parents will not pay any fees. Hrmph....beginning to feel the fear effect, thanks for that. I think.

    Boards.ie is surely responsible for masses of time being wasted. Stay off www.onlinefootballmanager.co.uk too, if you like that kind of thing.

    I'm into year 3 of a two-year MSc with still not ONE WORD (!!!!!!!!) written of my thesis. It's on Wine Marketing, by the way, just in case anyone has any interesting ideas about what slant I should take...

    PM me at rediguana@eircom.net.

    Grazie!
