    As previously remarked upon (ages ago), pretty girls out in force once again in the library.

    I remember last May a friend of mine from outside UL had to meet me here for something, so I tortured him by taking him on a tour of the library! ha!ha!ha!

    Are you saying I don't? :pac: Music section is where the cool people go :rolleyes:

    I predict levels of make-up useage to increase throughout the exam period as tiredness shows through the layers of mascara already applied. It's tough having been studying in the the library all day til 530- can't miss Home and Away- (don't forget the study breaks at 10,11,12,1,2,3,4 and 5- and a quick chat with Sinead across the way at 1030,1130,1230 etc), early to bed at 12 (because its exams, like) then having to get up at 0600 to get the makeup on to look good again for the morning.


    Apparently

    I picked up some Tesco brand Red Bull when I was in town earlier since my attention span is non-existent. It's crazy stuff. I had one can and my hands are shaking and I have so much energy and want to do so much...


    ...but I still don't want to study.
    Can't beat Aldi's red thunder, 6 cans for €2.20 or something like that, I go through so much of it but I find it so good for studying.

    I would love a Red Bull now, Im trying to get through my BIM study, but I also have a splitting headache...:(

    I don't think large amounts of caffine and sugar will help that.

    Still, I gotthe house to myself, and have music blaring from my laptop.
    So it's all good:)

    That is the biggest retard module going. The lecturer is sound out but jesus, don't bother your arse studying for it!

    I dont like ECONOMICS

    I've written an essay on tourism, but its fairly airy fairy tbh, I just cant be arsed doing much more.

    I'm going on to do demographics next, but with the amount of notes I've got for it, I'll be all night doing it...

    Then that leaves just one more to do...probably CAP, but I think everyone will choose that, and it'll be marked harder as a result...

    Oooohhh I dont know what to do :confused::(

    i did the one on inequality, it's pretty straight forward.. i wasn't going to do it cause i missed the lecture but reading over the notes its grand and the past questions on it have been alright too..there's a reading for it on public folders and that basically has everything in it..
    i did tourism and cap as well, my cap one sucks so im prob going to have to go back to it over the weekend..

    I was in the library ALL day from 10 this morning till 6, finished studying management principles and microeconomics, I wrote up really good notes on the computer, if you want them pm me your email.

    I've barely touched BIM but I got like 30% out of 40% from the computer tests so it should be easy to pass, but those exam papers are from the old module, we are the 1st year doing the revised course so those exam papers are more of a guideline.
    Still though it looks fairly easy but I wont be doing BIM next semester as im doing business with german and when cyour doing BIM 2 ill be doing german. Eoin is a legend though.

    Paddy Buckley is the legend of BIM 1 that I remember.

    I do not know of this "Eoin" you speak of.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,366 ✭✭✭ninty9er


    Ah had coffee with Paddy this morning. Paddy's PhD is coming to an end so he's no longer teaching staff AFAIK.

    My dog is determined that I am not going to study. She can't understand why I'm home and not lavishing her with attention as usual and she is trying everything to get my attention. She has tried staring at me forlornly. Sitting on my books. Putting her toys on my laptop. Hiding so I have to go look for her. She pushed her bed down the stairs. Now she's wedged in behind me so I can't sit comfortably. I will not give in though. I refuse.
