A Message For Leaving Cert Students

Irish Leaving Certificate Students got their long awaited results last week.
Helplines were very busy over the past few days as nervous students and their parents called to consult with guidance counsellors manning telephones and offering future hope and assistance.

Per reports approximately 4,000 ordinary level student callers have failed mathamatics. This has left them with very limited college options in 2010.

Another huge issue of concern for many other callers was the level of points needed for all hoped for courses next Monday. Points are set to increase for many courses, particularly in the medical and other related areas. But points are also set to fall for courses linked to the building industry, for architecture and for law.

However for many, an anxious few days lie ahead, as they await the publications of the college place offers from the CAO,expected next Monday morning at six o’clock.
For those of you who are anxious or feeling let down by life take a look at this video.

Sometimes, in life, it is necessary for a man with no shoes to meet a man with no feet.
So if you don’t attain, immediatly, your hoped-for expectations, don’t worry, pick yourself up and give it another go.
You will succeed if you follow that which you hold passionate, so dream big.

Where There’s A Will There’s A Way

Hello you animal lovers out there. Meet ‘Missy‘ the tiny eight week old pup from Thurles, who thinks she is a cat.

The Great Escape (One Dog’s Interpretation) from G Butler on Vimeo.

Highly intelligent ‘Missy’ is the only daughter of a female Cocker Spanial called ‘Sandy’ and was conceived following a one night unscheduled liaison with an unidentified black Labrador Retriever.

Abandoned by her mother, at just four weeks, for continuously acting the pup, Missy was hand reared by her owner and now prefers the human touch to those of the canine variety.

Just like most women, Missy has a mind of her own and as you saw from this video clip, is very head strong when it comes to being caged, in her four foot high wired dog compound.

I wonder if we had a word with her could she help us find a solution to our present economic problems.
