    Mine was in first year, second Monday of the second semester when we got the first semester results. I did brilliantly and after College I went out with all my mates. We came back to UCD and had a party on the campus. It was good times. I have had other good days but that sticks out.

    What about everyone else??

    That's easy. The day I left it. No contest.

    Funny to look back on now: day after my Debs... coming into college utterly in pieces. Still wearing the tux (my own black tux, but had removed shirt and bow tie and replaced with Chelsea jersey... classy). So incredibly hungover. Friends coming up to talk to me, I'd just recoil and screech ''Don't talk to me!''. I had showered and shaved and put on aftershave that morning, but people still claimed to have been able to smell drink... what the ****... Good times alright.

    I've been in UCD since 2002. It's at the stage where I'm really sick of it.

    Jesus 8 years wtf??...

    Last day of term 07 was incredible. Great weather, music blasting and thousands of people drinking on the pitches.:)
    nearly forgot aboput that day, was unreal.
    any last day of term or first day of term are always great. me and my mates usually start drinking around 10 then head to student bar and lunch time, rarely make it out that night tho. this friday counts as a last day of term in my opnion so more of the same...

    I couldn't pick a day. I like the summer days where you go in, go to a couple of lectures, play football, then hit the pub. Good times.

    stoopid UCD ball

    So far mine has been when I was in Macroeconomics and Rodney Thom's mobile went off and the way he reacted turned a dead lecture into a lively one.

    That same day,my seminar for German Political Culture felt strange.I looked down at my feet in horror.You know that feeling when you notice you're wearing odd socks? Replace odd socks with odd shoes and have yourself a wacky day.And the best part was the two pairs of black runners I have are so similar except the brand,no one even seemed to notice:D:D

    Charging down the concourse with 50 posters and my trousers falling down

    UCD had much more soul and character when I was a student there from 1994-2000. I believe most of that has all but dissipated.

    Not at all. You just have to find it. Too many people expect the good times to come to them.

    Last day of term 2007. Great weather, people drinking on the pitches listening to music. Good times!

    Hard to pick one really. I do recall a history lecture in first year where the lecturer was either drunk or doped up on something as he kept slurring his words.

    If that was the medieval anti-Christ lecture I was there.
    I remember the lecturer struggling for ages to get the lid off a bottle of coke. When he finally opened it he looked at the bottle in confusion and then closed it again.

    Last day of 07 was wonderful, the classic Beatles, the arm wrestling, the weather...

    My best days were probably in first year though when it was all still new and exciting and the Philosophy Society seemed to be able to provide limitless supplies of free beer.

    The last two days in UCD were excellent.
    Tip Rugby on the green between the science and vet science buildings, was epic.

    Sunshine was priceless, Loop the Loops at Centra were nostalgic and the sheer buzz of so many people not in lectures, was unbelievable.

    The day only fell short in our inability to find this apparently, mythical Ice cream van!

    March 5th 2008. Handing in my blasted thesis and seeing the look of shock on a lecturers face when I told him I didn't look so shockingly bad from pulling an all nighter, but rather from a rather serious hangover caused by the student bar the night before.

    Boards Beers Sept 2007 - a great night and the night that caused me to get involved in the Union

    A really random night in Merville Last year with a crate of beer, a bottle of Jameson and Some west coast cooler and some class company. Infamous texts were sent and the look of utter disgust when my housemate returned to find 3 drunk beings at 2am made the whole thing utterly priceless.

    Rad Soc comedy debate 2008. Blooming hilarious even if I do say so myself.

    Oh and scaring a load of first years during Freshers week 08 by charging down concourse whilst being chased by a few people and eventually ending up selltaped from head to toe. Some looks lad....
