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 know I’m a bit late to the party in regard to Irish Paper 2 but I will say it went swimmingly. The poetry questions were quite nice, except for the fact that the Nil Aon Ni codarsnacht question and the Faoiseamh A Gheobhadsa codarsnacht question were practically one and the same – what [...]
So then eight weeks and its all over, eight weeks? Thats it.A nice round two months and you’ll never have to say pardon madame, je ne comprends pas la question. Seems like yesterday I was walking the crowded hallways for the first time. I’ll be honest I’ve never been much of a worker and I’ve [...]
I’ll put my hands up and admit it, occasionally I will laugh when particular emphasis is placed on the word oral in a classroom. Some people laugh at the result 69% in an exam, but sniggering at the word oral is my dirty little secret. However that doesn’t mean I’m going to discard it as [...]
Irish Paper two went more or less the same way as English Paper two. I thought I was wonderfully prepared, but when I saw that An Bhean Óg question I almost had a heart attack. Cíoptha?! What the hell did Cíoptha mean?! I later found out it meant “torment”, which filled me with cíoptha as [...]
French. How I’ve hated it for all these years. How it’s made my blood boil, my stomach churn and my head ache. As of about 1pm this afternoon, I can safely say, I will never EVER be using it again. That’s it- our awful relationship has come to an end and I for one am [...]
I’m just out of my Irish Paper 2 exam, and I’m feeling very emotional. Today was the last day I’ll ever have to speak/use Irish- EVER. (Unless of course I decide to do the Leaving Cert for a third year in a row, which I can safely say will NOT be happening. No matter what. [...]
There are various things in this world which I simply do not like. Things that grate on me, things I detest. Milk, for example. It just doesn’t taste right. There’s also the colour orange. It makes me feel aggressive. Could I forget people who spell the word “College” as “Collage”? Please, they don’t deserve free [...]
I felt completey ready for French, there was nothing that could be thrown my way that I couldn’t speak about. I strode confidently into the exam, document clutched between my hands. I laid the envelope of photos on the desk when go tobann, I realised that what I had so happily carried with me was [...]
A student as smart as could be had to integrate X to the 3 She said “X to the 4, over 4 I am sure” But was out by a constant of C! I’m afraid I can’t take credit for the above piece of genius, but I thought I’d share it with you all. Anyone [...]
