    what will everyone be doing before you get the results and after you get the results.

    i will be gettin up at about 8 and having a few cans to settle the nerves and then head down for my results about 10.

    then that night even if i do ****e, i'm going into town and i'm gonna get drunk and go mad.

    I'll be lying on a beach in Salou all morning...then will club the night away!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭*marie*


    The night before, me and all my friends are going to stay in one of our houses and have a few drinks, watch dvds and stuff. Sober up in time to go up to the school, go home and get changed, then hit the town!! I'm going to celebrate no matter how bad/good I get on.
    Btw, does anyone know what time we can go pick up the results? Is it 9 o'clock like?


  • Registered Users Posts: 418 ✭✭:Keith:


    I've heard nine o'clock.

    Getting very drunk, both before and after. Before to calm the nerves, after to celebrate/drown my sorrows. And I've heard 9.00 for getting the results from school, but I'm guessing it varies from place to place - the only thing I know is that getting them from school gets them a few hours earlier than going online.

    il be like Innervision...
    lying in a beach in Gran Canaria all morning..then head out to pub then club!

    dont see point of not opening your results and waiting for college offers..what if none come then atleast you cuda prepared yourself as ud hav a fair idea what u got or not :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭Innervision


    Yeah, this wait alone is hard enough, why prolong it?! I'd imagine that'd be nearly impossible, knowing you can check them at any minute...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43 Errant11235


    What date are the college offers sent out????


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭shay_562


    I plan on leaving my envelope closed for about 15 seconds, long enough to get out of the principal's office (damn if I'm opening them with that vindictive bitch watching and waiting to mock me for not doing well enough), but anything longer than that...no, not a chance in hell. I can't imagine hanging on to it for a week and not looking at the results, I think I'd go nuts. Plus it seems kinda pointless - once you have the results, why not look at them? If you're borderline, then don't get excited about a college course until the first round offers, but at least look at the damn score...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 362 ✭✭the smiley one


    hmmm, I think I could wait. I would be best pleased never to hear the word "Leaving Cert" again, to get my course ( :) ) and never to know the actual results. Actually, that would be pretty perfect......but hey...

    :)

    60 man party on the beach the night before then drive up in the morning with all my mates packed into the car with the long tedius 25min drive to school to open the letter that will seal my fate


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 11,362 ✭✭✭✭Scarinae


    I'm so disorganised, I don't even know what time I'm meant to be going into school to get my results.... I hope my friends know. I might be in Kerry anyway so may have to get my results off the Internet.
    I don't know what I'll do in the evening cos I don't know yet which county I'll be in, but either way I am going to get hammered


  • Registered Users Posts: 205 ✭✭*Roisin*


    I'm getting my results through the post, which doesn't come til at least half 1, so I'll just check mine on the internet.

    Depending on the results I'll either stay home and cry, or head in Galway city for one of the best nights out in ages! Probably won't come home for days, until my mam puts out some kind of police bulletian to track me down because I haven't given her my results yet! :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,094 ✭✭✭Beau


    I will probably get no sleep the night before. When I get them and be delighted with what I got I`ll stay in town with my mates and grab a few cans. Later on I`ll head into Smyths on the square where hopefully everyone from the 4 schools in navan will be and then I will buy some buckfast to drink while we take a long taxi drive to Bucks.

    It was a great nihgt last year when my mates got theirs so I assume this will be even better.

    What a sausage fest!!

    Anyhew, I will be at the school for 9. Grab my results and then come home get ready. Meet the missus and head out for a night on the town although I would prefer a house party to Cork City on results night. It will be impossible to get in anywhere. Bushing would also be a great alternative!

    Give me a break, just because i said "60 man" doesn't mean that there will 60 men on the beach. It can be used to emply both men and woman

  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭Beno


    sorry if i seemed to agressive
    twas a long day and there is an even longer night to come


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,945 ✭✭✭D-Generate


    I was only joking mate :)
    Sorry for the stress hehe


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 141 ✭✭scorpy


    aren't we supposed to have gotten some kind of PIN number for getting results online? I don't think I got one of those...
    anyway, going down to the school on results day is going to be horrible. but the relief afterwards, no matter how I did, will be SO good! ^_^

    Hate to break it to you but she'll know the results before you do. My principal knew everybodys before we did last year

    ah come on...ill buy you a drink ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,479 ✭✭✭Volvoboy


    I'm not going to open mine !!!!.................. EVER!!!

    i've made a decision that i'm not going to open mine as i have a job as a panel beater and my results dosen't depend on them,

    so no scandal, no tears or fears about it!!!!

    Yeah, I know, but her knowing is one thing. Her standing over me while I see them myself and making bitchy comments about them is another - I don't plan on giving her the chance.

    nobody likes bondi, and yet everyone still goes.

    kip imo. wouldn't go if you payed me.

    Where else has things on?
