Mine started today. Oh the joy! It was english, and oh boy.. good luck to the poor teacher who tries to read my writing. The last page was rushed.. (Poetry) and i didnt even get to finish, so i spent my last 30 secs jotting down reasons why the question wasnt done. Heh. Im also screwd for the geography exams. Thanks to inefficiency on the teacher's side of course. Economic geography just has the be the most daunting part of the course. ARgh. :eek:

Orals just have to be my weakest point in the subject. A million and one things begin to pop up in my head, that is NOTHING to do with the francais. C'est incroyable =/

I actually love irish orlas too!
They're a right oul' laugh.

French ones are, unfortunately, disgusting.
The first question I was asked in my actual oral last year was about the health service. Seriously! Not even anything about my family- the freakin' health service.

Hm. WELL...... The looking forward to irish orals most definitely doesnt apply to me. Im pretty sure that i ll start mouthing off some french phrases instead of irish. Its happened on a few occassions =/
But, im not worried. I can safely say irish wont be counted in my leaving cert

Cause i hate seeing whether i was right or wrong right after a test it really really gets to me mental and puts a downer on my day it was really the last thing i needed to see and then i get worried whether i failed or past so yeah =/ i just threw it in the bin once i got near one.

Got a short german test in the morning aswell as Irish listening and a geography test on rivers...oh the joy of it all.

Told her that I had shoulder length hair up until the day before I went back to school, and I decided to get a haircut, of course being french she thought this was hysterical.

Christmas exams in the evening?! We just got a week off school to do them, well not off, we were in doing exams... (I'm too tired to actually make sense today )

Definately do-able if you can write fast! I had to write like 16 pages in a two hour english exam last week. Granted I thought my hand would never recover, and actually after the week of exams the muscles (which I didn't actually know existed!) in my hand/finger were sort of tender! Don't think my hand will make it through college :P Just keep writing until you can write no more!

Aye the perks of going to a certain school i Dublin i guess i actually like the old 1 week of total exams where as now its just some teachers picking random days out and setting them in the evening tis too much!

Yeah im fast enough to write that amount im just worried by the time i get to the 3rd essay my writing will turn into a series of loops and squiggles :P
