    Thanks guys! Lawd, looking at last year's big trig question, good lord. In fairness I would've gotten the a part (55 marks!) and at least a partial credit for the b part but the rest of it...I'm just sitting here wasting my time by staring at it in awe...I really hope we don't get anything as scary as that. :o

    The robotic arm? Some of my attempts at that were absolutely lol-worthy. Translations and constructions and pretty much everything on the Maths course apart from the actual right method

    Our teacher told us not to worry about that robotic arm question that it caused uproar last year and they wouldn't go near it again! If they do when they're correcting it the vast majority of the marks will go for the earlier parts of the question!

    Incase anyone cares (probably not) but in the Eurovision semi finals we came 8th, Lithuania and Estonia were the 2 countries that qualified for the final but did worse than us in the semi.

    We got 6 points from the UK in the semi. If I remember right from when I looked at it last night, the scores from the 2nd semi were more evenly spread. We got something like 54 points but whoever came 10th in the 2nd semi had like 64.

    Is anyone else being force fed bad food by their parents? As in ice cream, chocolate and sh1te?
    First time ever I've actually started a routine workout and watching what I eat and BOOM, the other buys a tonne of Kinder Buenos, Jaffa cakes, and Ice cream. She just brought up a bowl of ice cream, and I swear to god it was over half a block.

    For our graduation we're doing a time capsule that we're are going to dig up as part of our reunion in 20 years. I want to put in a questionnaire kinda thing so I'll have something to hopefully laugh about :P

    Anyone have any sugesstions for questions I could answer? :P

    This, since the mocks. But between now and the 5th I'm eating properly, no fizzy drinks, crisps or icecream and I'm sticking mainly to dark chocolate.


    Now that I look at it I'm really eating quite primal.

    Hey is anyone planning of going to collage in Dublin? I am hoping to go DIT, Cathal Brugha Street.
    I was wondering if anyone know of good accommodation around there? I was looking at the National Collage of Irelands campus but it hard to find where exactly it is.

    If anyone has any idea how that campus is please let me know, or if u kno of another campus close by that would be good too. Thanks. :)

    It's days like these I'm glad that we're only 3 days away from finishing. Some people seriously need to get themselves in line.
