Best/worst moments of the semester?

[rtsg]

...so, I hate revision, since I've been doing this all day so far, I decided to start up a new thread. What have been your best, worst, funniest, unfunniest etc etc bits of the semester or the year in general?

I'll start off on a negative surprise surprise...though there have been some fantastic bits to this semester it has been well crap on the whole, partly due to hall lacking something, but I don't know exactly what. I reckon there is less hall spirit this year. Something that may help is to get more bloody freshers on this board and liven it up.

[angel_kohaku]

Hall sucks because there is no me!!!

In my day... everyone used the Chattan board. Come on Freshers!

Can't really comment about what the semester in chattan was like, but I have to say I do like the tea and coffee evenings now. It just makes it all a bit more social than people coming, getting coffee and fucking off.

Actually bad points are that stupid card system, because it means I can't get into my halfway house!

The hell?? Who gave Riho tact for Christmas?

But last year there was less hall spirit than in my first year... and this year there is less than last year... I dunno, my world has hardly been rose-tinted, and I did spend most of last semester either asleep or at my computer... so maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

I enjoyed this semester mostly, but thats compared to last year when I was a bit shy and quite a lot less sociable. Towards the end I picked up on what alot of other people were feeling though, something wasnt quite the same, its hard to say what. Maybe after a break, some exams and another break I'll appreciate life in st andrews a bit more again.

Low points? I was slightly ill from about week4 all the way through to reading week, that was a bit crap. Then I worked myself into a panick about mid-term exam, which wasn't really neccesary. And I got into a bad sleep pattern, still havent fixed that.

High Points? Going to rocksoc for the first time was good. I got to know alot of people better and made more friends than I did in first year and having acadmeic children was mostly really cool. And although its really geeky I enjoyed work too, lungs are awesome.
Also the quote of the semester for me: "I'm off to bed now; bon appatite!"

id say this has probably been my best semester, i couldn't put my finger on why tho...

Why do I end up defending my personality on every thread?

[kay_red_uk]

yup my best semester too . I can't remember who was all there i was just sobering up and it was quite late but when fyfe's friend micheal came up to st andrews and the pair of them sat in the small tv room in a laughing fit... that was pretty funny

[wally]

That was rather banterous

[wally]

Personally, I'm not sure what people mean by a lack of hall spirit this year, I've enjoyed the semester, learning lots of new things in my classes and I've had fun outside of class as well

[Jono]

This semester was pretty alright.

I can't be fucked giving a definitive judgement TBH. As we all know, I've given up making judgements in general. Which is probably a good thing considering the judgements I could make!

Lets see; Worse moment was probably when I had to leave for Raisin weekend, thereby robbing my Extended family the joys of hefting all 12 stone of my fat arse into a skip full of broken glass and jagged metal!

Best. Well I think we all know the answer to that! Thereby making me "The least single person here!"

No offense, Jon, but that statement might just be enough to make me go hang myself... not only am I on the Sinner at half past midnight on New Years... I also just realised that that is horrendously true...

Alex and Jon?

I'll see you a News Year Eve alone, raise you a boyfriend-hundreds-of-miles-away-getting-hit-on-while-dressed-as-an-elf, and now I'm going to eat another box of biscuits.

And Jon, I think several people on E-floor can testify to you being far from the *least* single person in hall.

I'll raise you a New Year's Eve in a car with my parents driving along a deserted Scottish hill with wind and rain buffeting the car. I would go away to eat a box of biscuits, but we have no food in the house, so I can't.

All of you?

I'm all in with working an abnormally exhausting 9 hour shift at the hotel, coming home to shit TV, then being the only one in the house still up past 00:10... alone and on the internet... still up at 4:30 (called your raise there, Jon) playing Football Manager and listening to 2 and a Half Men (the TV show- before any wise asses try and quote log that)... then up again at 9:15 to be back at work for one of the worst shifts of the holidays at 10. (on the tiny plus side I was paid double time for my 6hrs today)

Right

Best moment - probably seeing Miss Green's face at her surprise party. Apart from that, not being in St Andrews for the majority of the semester was my highlight...

Worst moment - realising that I had to spend 3 weeks straight in St Andrews at the end of the semester and going crazy in the last week.
