From: Cork
Interests: Playing sport more than following it, although I am sort of getting into the Premiership this year... Science, man!! And maths... Generally nerdy stuff like that is always good... Movies, I suppose.. Eh... Is socialising an interest? Socialising... Oh! Music (anything with a rhythm :P) Emm... That'll do..!
Clubs and socs you would like to join/have joined: *finds list of societies*

These look worthwhile for me, even though there are wayy too many to get involved in them all:

Amnesty
Art (maybe)
Children's Aid
Comedy
Dental
Film
FoMSF
Hot Beverages
LGBT
Live Music
SVP


Actually, would it be very unusual for someone to join a society completely separate from their course? Because I wouldn't mind joining a couple like Physics & Astronomy or whatever...

Clubs... I kinda want to join all of them!! :P
