First Year Diary

First Year Diary by Aine Fogarty

First Year Diary by Aine Fogarty

Well it seems we’ve reached the end. If I’m being honest I didn’t think I would even make it this far with the diary but I’m grateful I did. When I first started I was worried I would regret it but most of that worry was due to being scared. This experience has been my first with a newspaper and I’m proud and thankful for the experience.

First year diaries: Procrastination

First year diaries: spring cleaning

By Darren Casserly Now that we’re in midway through the semester the workload is increasing again. I really missed not having four assignments due in a week. I could have done with a couple more months of no assignments, but what’s the point of being in college if we’re not here to learn. On a completely different, but at the same time, similar topic, (unofficial) RAG … [Read more...] about First year diaries: spring cleaning

First year diaries: second semester improvements

By Darren Casserly Now that we’re back a few weeks, things seem to be getting back to normal. However, with most of the tutorials only starting up again this week it left many people with a fairly sparse timetable, well for me anyway. The added space for the most part was nice, but there are times when I had a few hours off in between lectures and there is only so much time … [Read more...] about First year diaries: second semester improvements
