Well it’s all done and dusted. It’s pretty hard to believe. I know it’s taken me far too long to get back here – Internet woes. Anyway, the results: Irish B3 English B2 Maths B1 (Ordinary) French B3 Geography A1 Biology A2 Chemistry D1 475 points. Initially I was absolutely gutted – especially with Chemistry. [...]
I woke up this morning with the same apprehensive feeling that’s been dogging me for the past 2 weeks – oh noes, the results are coming , I’m scared I’m scared I’m scared I’m scared. Then through the fog of tiredness I had the most wonderful realisation ever: the wait is actually over, I have [...]
When all through the land / The students were saying / “Ah sure, it’ll be grand” At least, that’s what I’m telling myself. I’m a little like Valerie in that every now and again I get that tight feeling in my chest. What if I don’t get my minimum 550? What if I don’t get [...]
I’ve been writing drafts of this post for days on end and keep meaning to post, but every time I come back to it my feelings have changed. One minute I’m calm, relaxed, and totally unfazed then the next minute I’m completely freaking out. It’s quite strange. Last night I discovered that I’d been thinking [...]
At 2.18 am this morning I got one of the most important emails of my life. I wasn’t awake for it-I was going to get up at 5am to start monitoring it but I figured results aren’t going to change, no matter how early I get them so I set no alarm. Throughout the Leaving [...]
…with the sound of ME BEING FINISHED! And music, obviously. Well. That was something, wasn’t it? The past week was the longest 7 days ever to exist. I honestly felt that Music would never arrive, that I’d be trapped in this sort of “almost-finished-not-quite-there-yet” time warp thing forever. Evidently, I am not. Music has been [...]
Weekly recommended allowance of calcium from the cheese in the title! I was sitting in today’s Chemistry exam I had it all planned out when I saw the paper. “Fucking Atomic Theory” was to be the beautifully elegant title followed by the inspiring “Well failed that anway”. I love Organic Chemistry. There, I said it. [...]
all that can be said to describe chemistry is eughh….. My relationship with the subject went the way of an unstable nucleus today,breaking down with the emission of any knowledge I may ever have had of chemistry. Don’t get me wrong,I loved chemistry and still do but it’s kinda like the way you still ‘love’ [...]
I know I’m a little bit behind but hey, better late than never right? Ok so first things first, yesterday’s French exam. I thought the comprehensions, like Annah, were nice. The first one especially although I was a bit more vague on the second one. Also very happy about the lack of questions on the [...]
Ok…..I was a little sad coming out of biology today,nothing to do with the paper but cos i realised just how much i’m going to miss it. My class maturely shouting “willys” throughout the sexual reproduction chapter and playing who wants to be a millionaire..it really was the best…= [ Much like the class the [...]
