Hey, I’m Orla, and I originate from Leaving-cert.net’s original Rejectsville. Found myself wandering down Bitter Boulevard for all of 10 minutes after getting the boot, before swiftly making my way to Acceptance Avenue and becoming a content commentor. However, big shout out to this year’s bloggers, they’ve done a great job. They’re pretty prolific and perfectly professional, to allude to some alliteration. Kudos and a [...]

Be Smart, Don’t Try Be Smarter.
Maybe it’s a mixed-school thing. Personally I think it’s a female thing, but without doubt it’s not female only. People, wonderful people might I say, not being aware that they just like anyone else have their limits. To be blunt, people who think that they’re the cream of the crop, but in reality are nothing [...]
why can’t life be more like pokémon??
I really really really really really wish life was more like pokémon!! wouldn’t everything be so much easier? no need for an education if you just train some super class pokémon and then kick everyone’s ass! I bet gym leaders never had to go to college, or members of team rocket for that matter. I [...]
They're heeeeeeeeeere…
Well that’s day one of the mock, pre, whatever exams down. For me it was English Paper 2. That’s right, Paper 2. I should probably point out that I’m not going to give anything away on any paper, in this post or in any other, at least not without an express warning. No point ruining [...]
The School – New RTE Series

Never before has an Irish school given such unlimited access to film-makers, allowing camera crews to document every aspect of school life. Principal Eamon Gaffney was initially [...]

*insert clever introduction here*
Wilkommen, bienvenue, welcome… How wonderful it is to begin at last. In truth, I am FREAKING OUT. This feels like an exam, except maybe worse, because instead of some unknown educator in twinset and pearls I am examined by my own peers. Ah but I am overreacting. Maybe it’s because I’m too conditioned to everything [...]
One day Left!
Just one day left to this big mess that is the Leaving Cert! After an English paper fiasco and many a tear, it’s time to celebrate. I would also like to congratulate all the bloggers on completing their exams and to thank them for providing us with such great and entertaining blogs during the year, [...]
English Paper 2: Philadelphia, there I go.
ZOOM. Okay, I’m just going to give you an insight as to what it was like being me this morning. I got up at five to read Macbeth quotes like a madwoman. My appropriately towards the poetry went something like this, “shit shit shit shit if Bishop isn’t there I’M GOING TO DIE”. And I [...]
