    Santa brought a laptop.

    .....

    Am I the only one with parents who obviously hate me and want me to fail in life? Am I?

    I was given an mp3 player the morning of my applied maths exam. For some reason. I had planned on, you know, cramming for it that morning but naah, I spent hours in utter frustration trying to get windows to recognise the damnable mp3 player.

    Just don't get addicted to computer games and you'll be grand!

    You have great foresight. Got a new laptop the christmas before my junior cert (even tho i had one before that but it was a pain to use, so i never did), so yeah, I'm fúcked for the Leaving cert too.

    If you ever want to succeed in life, DO NOT put games on your laptop!

    Nonsense, there's no harm in playing games between lectures... ... and then if the game goes into the lecture time, it's a crime to end it early!

    I believe salman was a guy who posted a thread bragging about cheating in the Leaving Cert, who then got a metric fúckton of abuse from everyone.

    But there are plenty of educational websites out there. Would you not just use your laptop for educational purposes and nothing else?......

    Ah, I know!

    My parents, those inconsiderate fools, are getting me a laptop for my 18th.

    RE: Salman.
    That chap was hilarious tbh- the amount of abuse was, quite frankly, hilarious.

    She's in the RCSI doing Medicine and seems to love it. She's still writing for the Irish Times, her column is in the Education section I think, on Tuesdays.

    My sister bought me Desperate Housewives season 1 for Christmas, and I bought season 2 off Ebay the other day. Not getting any study done!
