Cheers & Jeers

CHEERS

The new Monster Energy Drink Ultra Paradise: According to Griffith College footballer Conor Keeley, this new flavour tastes like a fat frog cocktail, which is kinda like paradise.

CHEER: The Netflix series about cheerleaders at Navaro College in Texas. This series will have you in your feels like never before. We’re not crying — you are!

Hot YogaYoga: Done in a heated room where participants get real sweaty. Fun and relaxing and a good way to detox your body. Also a nice way to relieve stress. Perfect for winters in Dublin.

Getting a New Car: The Freedom to move around. No more bus and LUAS!

Swimming in the Irish Sea: Great form of recovery after exercise. You just go for it and dive straight in. You feel amazing afterwards. Rejuvenated! Try Bray beach — you may even spot some of the lads from the Griffith College Templeogue basketball team (AKA Order of the Healing Water) Many believe the mystic waters give Lorcan Murphy his jumping abilities.

Jeers:

Dublin Bus: The bus stop monitor said the next bus would arrive in 15min. I went to the SPAR to get a bag of crisps and when I got back to the bus stop, the sign board said the bus was not due for 43min.

Zero-3 hour work contracts: You get a job and then are told that you are guaranteed zero to three hours each week. What the actual fuck?

College coursework: Too many assignments. Everyday there is something that needs to be done. No time to relax. It is just a lot.

Getting older (closer to 30): Social pressure to settle down, have babies, and become a proper adult.

Trump not getting impeached: The Republican Party is looking out for the interests of one person as opposed to the interests of a nation.
