Was going to start a new thread but this seems a bit too OT so I'll just stick in in here.
How are you all supporting yourselves for college? I've noticed a fair few here are moving out for college and I'm beginning to think I'm the only person worried about the financial side of things. :pac: Are you all going to try balance jobs as well as your degree? If worst comes to worst, I think I'll try find a crappy little job, but I really wanted to not have to work too much during college. I was thinking of teaching guitar and clarinet and doing geography grinds for JC and LC, and hopefully most of my rent and stuff will be paid for with grants. I'm also going to hopefully be working in Woodies this summer. So what are all your money making schemes, or do you reckon few grants, be grand?
I'm hopefully gonna be able to get a job in Aberdeen. If I was staying here I'd give biology and economics grinds, but considering I'm heading there I don't know if I'll be able to.0 -

I'm hoping to get a job over the summer but doubt I will, and then I'll be screwed for work in Limerick Grants will get me through hopefully but it won't be easy. Please someone employ me! 0 -

In London.
I went to the wrong terminal by mistake I had a feeling it were wrong but I didn't know if there was another stop.
I just went through security there and had to walk around lmao.
It was so awkward and I always get flights by myself.
Then my flight was delayed like 2 hours didn't arrive til 12 then the passport check took ages .
I actually can't decide where I want to go to uni I was thinking on the plane. I can't decide it's so difficult. And whether it'd be Ireland or England
. Everytime I make the decision I start overthinking being indecisive lol. 0 -

I have an amazing book for Applied Maths, but I think it's a limited edition :pac: They were on sale for like 6 months and I had to get ordered online and atm I don't think you can get them? It's called "Applied Mathematics - A comprehensive course for LC". Otherwise there's a new version of Oliver Murphy's Applied Maths book which is meant to be good
But of course the physics teacher website is good too.0 -

Cool! I'll definitely look into that! Are there any specific app maths chapters to look over? Any which encompass major areas? Projectiles to start? Collisions? Or just vectors?0 -

I had more of a social life yesterday than I've had in the past year. :P Epic day - went shopping, bought loads of clothes (well, loads for me :P), visited cousins and then went out and ended up talking to a good few people I've pretty much not talked to at all since we graduated last summer. AND I bought Pokémon Soul Silver, it's amazing. 0

I freaked out and ran leaving the bag in the middle of the floor. I have no idea what it was. I just saw the legs running under the counter.
Ahhh that's terrifying! :eek: I've been clearing out my room all day and i'm constantly twitching and jumping thinking I see spiders 0 -
