Just a thought about Valentines Day...



This week alot of people will have spent alot of money buying gifts for the ones they love in order to prove their affection. Some people will love their gifts,and others,depending on what their partners idea of a romantic gift is,will hate their gifts. Everybody likes to receive gifts and I for one am no different but is it really necessary to spend a small fortune to prove to someone you love them,or is it just another commercial holiday? Surely you can show someone they mean something to you without buying them expensive gifts. I am personally on the fence about this but then again i am happily single so this year it will be just another day to me!

Rag Week!!!!

Rag week started today! After the last four years of it not much has changed, the line up stays pretty much the same with the hen and stag on tuesday,the wedding wednesday and the main ball on thursday. Normally i go to atleast 2 or 3 of the rag week nights out,however this year im only going to one which is the wedding! I would of went on thursday but its a mystery tour and as its fifty euro a ticket it could turn out to be a waste of money if its no good! So i think this year i will skip going to the main ball and just go to Amber or Silence because atleast there if it's not a good night i can get a takeaway and a cheap taxi home. Then again a night is what you make it!!!

Fitness week!!

This week i found out i would part of the group organising the event for the thursday of fitness week. I didnt actually volunteer to do it, i was selected when i wasnt in class! Im not a overly sporty person,infact these days the only remotely sporty thing i do is dance after a couple of drinks! Maybe i gave Meave the impression that i was! Anyhow its a good opportunity and we have a couple of ideas that everyone can take part in! So we will be expecting everyone to get involved including lecturers!!
