Open Day

WHirl7

I was checking out the schedule for the Open Days next week and was wondering if anyone can tell me roughly how long each of the talks will go on for?

Long enough for you to realise that it was a waste of time going to the open day!
Unless you've got a specific course in mind or you need to check out some particular facilities then if i had the choice again I wouldn't have gone...
You do get a day off school though


I don't know how long the talks go on for. IMO you should look at the course you're planning on doing. Look at the module names and the module descriptions, also don't think cause it's college that a subject might be more interesting.
That's a mistake i made, I have no business doing Finance modules.

It's cursed. Stay away.

What pestulance shall befall us this year do people reckon? Personally I think frogs raining from the sky would be kind of cool and biblical. Would also give me a use for that giant net I stole from the local aquarium.

Heh. We had the fire last time, mumps before that, a bunch of lads with Geiger counters the year before. Any other tales of misfortune?

Radiation, Mumps, Fire.......Zombies seems like the next inevitable stage.

Think each lasts for about an hour, never went myself but I can advise you to go to Ken Maddock's thing for chemistry, he'll do explosions and stuff and it's really enjoyable!

It's gotten exponentially worse.

Cool, trying to plan how I can make it to the talk for each course I'm thinking of doing. And I'll try not to walk under any ladders etc before friday and i should be ok!

Last year - Fire

This year - Godzilla, or at the very least a minor zombie apocalypse

infamous Z-day... it could only happen when the planets align oh and on the open day.

At least I have a plan...

Duddy

Yeah usually 40 mins to an hour. President's speech is quite the boring though...

Last year fire, this year floods, it has to be and is the only thing that makes sense

Next year shower of Locusts.

LeixlipRed

Locusts are freaky. Let's hope they only descend on new campus.

5Aces

Im worried now for my safety, should i get out of bed to go in and study or maybe i should play it safe?

Michellenman

Stay in bed. Everytime. Shower of locusts or not.

juicyduckie

Noooooooooo! What ever shall we do?

Think I'll stay in tomorrow and drink tea. Sounds like a plan.

Zombies would be fun though...

Eh, there's a marquee!! There's disaster waiting to happen!!

"Children, see how I demonstrate the power of the chemical world with my big box of chemicals, now I know the marquee is not well ventilated but that shouldn't be an issue. *Fiddles with chemicals*. Child, why are you lying on the floor?? Ask that other child lying beside you to stop shaking like that please!"

Also, they have signs for Pugin but one of them points into Aula, a condemned building. When will they learn?? Tis' cursed

CaoimH_in

send the children to be eye balled by decades worth of old priests!
