Leaving Certificate Results 2008
With about a week left until the leaving certificate results 2008 will be released. The day we have been eagerly awaiting and concerned about. And now it’s just around the corner. All i can say is that worrying is absolutely pointless. What’s done is done, and I’m sure the majority of you are in that [...]
Construction Studies
I have no longer got an ounce of motivation nor care towards my final two exams. After spending the last week off relaxing myself and switching off, I find it extremely difficult to switch back into exam mode . In my opinion a week is far too long. I found it even hard to push [...]
Guten morgen Deutschland and Fellow German-do’ers
Nein danke. So German starts on Friday. I have two days to do some preparation and I’m not quite sure what to focus on. Being a native German I already speak German, however, trying to get the rules of German grammar into my brain is impossible. I’ve had 2 different grinds teachers and a teacher [...]
Day 3 – Maths paper 1
After yet another night of only 4 hours sleep, I got up again at 6am to look over some notes and practice a little. The exam seemed fine at the start. I had a quick glance over it and told myself that I was going to make a good effort at this. The first question [...]

Day 1 – English Paper 1
This morning was different. I woke up, and my mother went to the shop to get me fresh rolls. Something I’ve never experienced in this house before. And I’ve been promised a fry in the morning! Maybe the leaving cert isn’t so bad after all? So I ate some food, hopped into car and tuned [...]
3 days and counting
Three days and counting. Its a bank holiday weekend, the sun is splitting the rocks and all I feel like doing is heading out to a beer garden and enjoying a cold pint of cider. Perhaps the leaving cert should be in winter, which would make it a lot easier to study. With little or [...]

LCVP – Written Construction – practical Engineering – practical Art – practical Although many of these seem very daunting at times, they’re actually not that bad. If you’re doing LCVP then it might be [...]
