I’m a BESS boy!
Firstly, if you didn’t read the Sunday post yesterday, go read it now, I didn’t write all that crap for nothing.
Offers for college just came out, and thankfully, I’ve managed to get my first choice, Business, Economics and Social Studies (BESS) in Trinity. Let’s take a look at what I said about Trinity and BESS a few months ago, shall we? Click here.
Trinners for winners, BESS for the best! (I’d like to thank Ciarán for that little saying, I’m sure I’ll fit in really well using it).
The course requirements went down by ten points this year, at 470, so with my 510 I comfortably got in, with 40 points to spare. Yeow!

That course has a bit of a reputation for the whole “D4″ thing, but that’s bollocks to me. Great course in Ireland’s most recognised college, I’m happy! Also, D4 girls are loike sooo hawwwt (I’m never going to try doing that again).
I hope everyone is happy with their college offers, let me know what you’re doing! I’d particularly like to hear from any fellow Trinity-goers, or any other future/current/past BESS heads. Fancy a pint in the Pav?
What happens from here? Grants and books etc? Feckin’ effort. Exams? Study? Pressure?
Fuck this, I’m going travelling.

You love D4 girls, don’t deny it- I’ve seen you in action!
I too was offered a place in Trinners, and I’m a good 45 points clear of what’s needed. I’m going to defer it I’m afraid… Year out time!

Also, I hope you enjoy becoming the new Laura Brady.

Ciara : Sorry to hear that. You might get it on a second round offer, no? Did you get offered anything today? Think about all your options before repeating

I don’t think I will get it on 2nd round offers, oh well only 17 still young enough to repeat gonna ace it this time

I’m happy you got your course, but you probably know my opinion about Trinity..actually you probably don’t (you were way too drunk) hehehe.
