The Night Before

» by Gav in: Study, Twitter

So… the night before.

Rather than flood this thing with details on the minutae of how well they’ve been going, I’ve created a hashtag on Twitter which will make it a little easier.

Catch the ‘Gav’s Finals’ widget on the top of the sidebar, or use Twitter Search.

See you on the other side…

Stand by your (wo)man…

Cheating guilt will ensure you agree to everything. Why else would he agree to all this?

Lewinsky was the best thing to ever happen to the Obama administration it seems! They got their shopping list delivered from Bill and they got their girl.

Of Fridays and Finals

» by Gav in: Study

So. The exams start on Monday (officially Monday week but I’ve got one on Monday, lucky me and my bizarre timetabling).

And as panicked as I should be/kinda am, I’m feeling very strangely divorced from the whole thing. It’s like I’m doing someone else’s stuff. It’s just not really registering that this is my own degree I’m playing with here.

I’m sure it’ll pass.

My best friend won’t live in the country this time next week

» by Ciara in: friends

The above has just hit me and I think my heart has ripped open. Don’t expect me to make sense for a while.

Cuirfimidne chun bóthair arís inniu
Chuig aerfort Bhaile Átha Cliath.
Deireadh an tsamhraidh buailte linn
Mac eile ag imeacht.
Eisean féin a thiománfaidh an carr
Tús curtha ar a thuras fada.
Ag mionchomhrá treallach, míloighciúil
Meilfimid an aimsir.

Staidéar ar ríomhtheangacha
A bheidh idir lámha aige.
Béarfaidh sé ar an bhfaill
Faoi spalladh gréine i Houston, Texas.
Tar éis slán a chur leis
Agus greim láimhe againn ar a chéile
Pléifimid na buntáistí a bheadh aige thall
Nach mbeadh ar fáil sa bhaile.

Gealgháireach, fuadrach a bheidh
Na stráinséirí inár dtimpeall.
Ní bhacfaimid le cupán caife
Siúlfaimid go dtí an carr go mall.
Deireadh an tsamhraidh buailte linn
Mac eile ag imeacht.

It’s a certain someone’s Birthday…

» by Ciara in: Birthdays

…. but Jimi Hendrix and I don’t talk anymore since that ‘incident’ in the late 60s, so it’s lucky I now have Reilly in my life to fill that 27/11 burfday void.

HB to my sine qua non, keep up the good work old chum, that getting old with me thing. GREAT SUCCESS!

My cyber pressie to you:

(Above video and such ilk only allowed once a year mind… )

This however, Kevin ‘I’m deadly from 2 yards’ Foley… more of that please?

LYF xxx

UPDATE:
He just found out he got into Mensa. Nerd-a-riffic.

Away for the next month

» by Gav in: Study

…on-and-off, my finals starting next Monday and all that.

So, eh, next time you see me, I’ll be 22.*

I leave you in the very capable hands of Miss Ciara P Brennan, BCL, who will guide you to your nearest emergency exit in the case of a sudden drop in cabin pressure.

Cheers for now,
Gav

* Unless, of course, you see me at SoundCheck on Thursday night. When, come to think of it, I’ll be 22 anyway, so, eh, ignore this remark.
