    What song lyrics best sum up your Leaving Cert experience so far?

    For me it would have to be Johnny Cash:

    " I fell in to a burning ring of fire"

    And you?

    "Can somebody help me coz its gettin harder and harder to breathe.." :D:D

    Not really though, i guess the bit of "My Way" by Frank Sinatra could sum it all up!

    Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
    When I bit off more than I could chew.
    But through it all, when there was doubt,
    I ate it up and spit it out.
    I faced it all and I stood tall;
    And did it my way

    feeder just a day

    'don't wanna be a clown
    Gotta get my feet back on the ground
    Before it pulls me in

    How come it ended up like this?
    And who's gonna catch me when I'm coming down
    To hit the ground again

    All by myself!'

    Is it just me or is the leaving cert the loneliest place in the world,despite having your whole class around you,its incredibly lonely! Just you and the exam!

    I always find myself singing oasis songs to myself in class. the shadow-projection q in tech drawing got me going earlier in the year... "Cast No Shadow".
    i've a question... why does everything teenage girls find memorable have to be soundtracked by green day's good riddance? i doubt "time of your life" could be used to describe the o so joyous experience of writing non-stop for three hours flat while the sun shines outside. maybe im wrong, but this certainly isnt the time of my life.
    my song to sum up the exams thus far would be foo fighters' new one, best of you, or audioslave's be yourself. simply because they're of the time and have a bit of the feck what others want attitude

    back in the day when I was enjoying myself this year, Toots and the Maytals made me feel guilty with "Pressure Drop":

    "Hmm hmm hmm, yeah... [3x]

    It is you (oh yeah)
    It is you, you (oh yeah)
    It is you (oh yeah)

    Cause a pressure drop, oh pressure
    Oh yeah pressure drop a drop on you
    I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
    Oh yeah pressure drop a drop on you

    I say when it drops, oh you gonna feel it
    Know that you were doing wrong.

    Hmm hmm hmm, yeah... [3x]
    I say a pressure drop, oh pressure
    Oh yeah, pressure drop a drop on you [2x]"

    The way he sings it too, he has got this huge voice like he is god or something, bloody scary.

    However now with the pressure dropped on me at this stage its The Music`s "Jag Tune" thats keeping me going. Its really up beat and makes me feel happy before and after the exams. Origionally when I first heard this song the meaning was more about girls I`m crazy about. Heres bits of it:

    "I've been thinking
    Of what I've got to say to you
    Should I leave it?
    What'll happen if I do? yeah....
    ...I'll be nothing all the same
    You don't know me
    And when I'm good I'm coming round yeah

    (Chorus)
    My time is of the essence
    My time is settled in
    My time is of the essence
    My time is spent with you, you got me goin crazy
    Cos time is of the essence
    My time is settled in
    My time is of the essence
    My time is spent with you, you got me goin crazy

    I went someway (repeated about a million time)

    (Chorus)

    There's something inside me that keeps ticking on
    There's something besides me that tells me it's wrong
    There's something inside me that keeps ticking on
    There's something besides me that tells me it's wrong"

    My friends and I have been constantly quoting lines from "Mean Girls". It's obsessive, bordering on insane - but we have such a laugh. One of us even looks like Lindsay Lohan (pre coke-induced anorexia).

    "Glen Coco. Four for you Glen Coco. You go Glen Coco"

    "I was half a virgin when I met him."

    "Regina George is flawless. I hear she does car commercials - in Japan."

    To those of you who have no understanding whatsoever what the above quotes been, watch Mean Girls; It's a highly under rated film.

    Mean Girls; It's a highly under rated film.
    Under rated! I`ve always heard great things about it. The only people that don`t like it are guys who are1nt comfortable with themselves and can`t admit they like a girls movie.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,788 ✭✭✭Vikings


    I liked it.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Well I guess I meant overlooked rather than under rated. In that I saw it advertised and immediately thought of it as a crap teen movie. But it's brilliant. I own the dvd.

    Gosh. I wanna watch Mean Girls now.
