Pride and Prejudice and Perfunctory Work Ethics

Emerald discusses the CAO in his trademark family-oriented ultra-conservative devout Christian style. Seriously, he doesn’t say fuck at all. That’s the devil’s word.

Summer's Coming…

Okay, I am perfectly aware of the fact that it’s cold, rainy and all in all very grey but think about it guys, there’s not much time left until we’re finally free. It’s an utterly unbelievable thought and it makes me do that girlish squeal in my head as just for a while I manage [...]

Back and (not) ready for action

This time yesterday I was in Stockholm.. Now I’m sitting at home after a day at school, a day spent realizing how completely screwed I am for June but also how even the last ten days wouldn’t have helped. My options for tonight are sleep, eat or study. But I’m on facebook. Reliving the past [...]

I can’t decide whether to be extremely happy that we’re almost done, or extremely freaked out that it’s so close, so, naturally, [...]

My Bad Gaiz

In case you were wondering about that email “I” sent you…

Optimism and Tea

Not much to report. Back to school today. What a complete balls. In case anyone is wondering, we’ve got roughly twenty-one school days left. I like it. It’s little facts such as this that enable me to trudge in and out of school everyday, as opposed to being dragged in by the ankles, fingernails grappling [...]

Surprise, Bitches!

Emerald’s first post on leavingcert.net, where he slanders his blogmates and generally makes a nutsack out of himself.
