Leaving Cert 2012-13 *OFF-TOPIC* (hideaway) thread

They're so boring I can't bring myself to study them. I'm about half way through all my subjects revision-wise and all I've managed for Irish is an essay on the Gathering

Legion.

Had an English mock this morning so I probably won't bother with anymore study until this evening. Was fairly easy, he changed the Macbeth questions to give us two we had never done before, so we would have to adapt on the day which was a pretty good idea.

As far as Irish Pros go, I don't think I'll revise at all. They're only worth like 5%, and considering the amount of work/detail in them I don't really think its worth it.

I'd love Oisín to come up and just a question on it being a Bealoidis story or something.. I would hate to get Dís/Hurlamaboc and kind of hate Cáca Milis too.. that's 3/5 I don't want.. Come on An Gnathrud or Oisin! :P

Is it just me or is "Dís" impossible to answer a question on? Nothing happens! My answer is going around in circles.

Dís I think is grand, just talk about their differing wants and needs, and the how we see the strain on their relationship!

I think most of the prós is okay, excluding Hurambloc, haven't done a tap of work on that!

I'm leaving out hurlamaboc purely because it came up last year and I'm not bothered enough about the poetry/pros to care :pac:
Speaking of which, what poem came up last year?

Yeah I'm not doing anything with Hurlamaboc... Same really with An tEarrach Thiar. I only have have 3 poets lives' to learn off so I love when they ask for the life of the poet in the poetry question... easy marks !

I've been leaving-cert zoned loads in the past week its actually dreadful. Flirtatious texts have turned into "have you got an aiste on Imirce I can borrow" or "did your teacher give ye any tips".The most normal non-lc related thing that i've gotten texted was about one direction tickets. God help us.

This is worse than friend-zoning. I dont think i will ever know how to start a normal conversation with these girls again.

I'm starting to worry with everyone talking about Caca milis, we never studied it. Was it compulsory? (I am HL btw)

My procrastination attempts have hit a new low. Sat down to study Lenin/Stalin for history then got sidetracked thinking about communism, read the entire Wikipedia page for Che Guevara and decided it would be a good time to go to town to buy a Cuban cigar. At least if I fail the leaving I will have a promising future in the Socialist Party .

Is it in prose that it comes up, if so does anyone know the difference between 2A and 2B? I remember my teacher telling us in 5th year that we weren't going to study Caca Milis cause it was too dark, that we were going to do a different one instead.

Did ye do seal I Nepal instead? Cause our teacher said we did caca milis instead of it. I think that's for 2B not entirely sure though.

Yes, you did An Lasair Choille instead of Caca Milis. They give you an option between those two in the exam.

Me too. If only for the simple reason that I would have an hour and a halfs work done by now. Left to my own devices I have just managed to drag myself out of bed and now plan on wasting more time by having a shower.....it'll be nearly 12 by the time I start now.

As far as I know Cáca Milís and Lasair Choille will always come up together, so if you have an Lasair Choille done you don't need Cáca Milís!

At this rate I'll be rolling out of my last exam with the amount of junk food I'm eating..
