RAG Week 2008. Worst timing EVER!

    Okay, so who in the name of bejaysus' idea was it to put RAG week on at this gawdaweful week of the calender??? RAG week is always followed by a study week so you can get as fooked as you like during the entire weer and postpone worrying about non-intoxicating activities such as eating/sleeping/STUDYING until the aforementioned week after. The reading room is FULL at the minute people!! When has that EVER happened during RAG week before??? The first/second week in march was always free of deadlines to allow us all to go wild and let loose! Also, since RAG week was usually later in the year it means it was lovely and sunny throughout, and the entire college campus was full of people sitting/drinking/dancing/generally acting the eegit outside in the sunshine-not huddled inside trying to escape gale force wind and rain as they are this year! Put my ranting down if you will to the fact that I am one of those people in the reading room at the minute, attempting to finish a thesis which is due on Friday-so I'm a bit of a sick fish considering I'll probably miss all the fun and such down in the SU. But as I've mentioned already-I found it hard to get a seat in ere this morn with all the studious activity going on... Is it simply a bad callender week for all things RAG? Or is this year's lineup so disappointing that a large proportion of students would rather hit the books than the beer?:confused:

    Seriously though, I think you're procrastinating your thesis. Knuckle down! RAG week can be over rated.

    You'll reap the reward in June with a big fat first, while all those having fun now will be panicking over their repeats. Remember what you are there for...


    ...I expect it's not English, though.
