I've done a catering course, in college for the past two years, a NVQ Level 1 in catering and BTEC Introductory Diploma in catering and hospitality. I've got the qualifications, so I dont have to go to college anymore, now I just need to find work. Specifcaliy in some sort of catering business as i'd like to become a chef.

Nobody actually told me how much coursework DCU gives you :( I barely have time for work! Not that I need a job... I mean i've never been short of money, but it kept me occupied... until I actually started at DCU :(

In case anyone didn't know, I'm doing advanced physics and chemistry majoring in Quantum Theory and Scientific Developemnt at Dublin City University. It's such a mouthful, but ist cool :D

Holy crap!

I just do chemistry by itself and I think I don't have any time. Do you enjoy it?

Uni applications = the biggest head ache ever.

Im so glad i found this thread. I know so much about uni and uni courses (so please fee free to ask) but I still have no idea what to do and im 22! i've looked at every course up and down the country. Im pretty bright so getting in shouldnt be too much of a problem. I obv want to go to a well respected uni, but i have no idea what I want to do! arggh its so frustrating!

I love drama, i also love teaching and being around kids and cultural studies and tourism also interests me. Sorry if i sound big headed and clueless but i really dont have a clue! has anyone ever been in my situation? and of course id love to study abroad!

I found that even if you think you know what you want to do, you will always have doubts about if you really enjoy it after a semester. I think that maybe it's best if you take a selection of papers in what interests you, and see where they take you (there's bound to be subjects that you really dislike after a semester).

For my BA I started with a major in Modern Languages and taking papers in Linguistics, German, Italian, and International Relations. After a semester I dropped Italian. During the second semester I stopped doing my IR paper because it was too complex, and I perservered with Linguistics although it was soooo boring.I'm now a German and Political Science Major, and although I am yet to do a pols paper, I did write an essay for someone (she even got a A- for it :( )and realllly enjoyed it.

Just remember Char- try new stuff because for all you know, it could be something you stick with :)
