Why is it so dry? - Nottingham Chat thread

I know!! Seems like other people have managed though..

arghhh, how?!

Online registration opens on the 1st September at 12pm. That's what my portal thing told me anyway!

I know, that's what it tells me too.. However, the IT guy told me that I shouldn't register at the self-reg place Which was a bit strange I thought.. Where else can you register?!!?

You probably can't register on the selfreg page because you're a postgrad (well, I think I remember you saying that...)

Undergrads should be able to use it ok though.

Nope, not a postgrad, doing the Msci IR & Global Issues.. But it's an undergrad masters...

I'm a postgrad and I managed to do the self reg thing - but my portal still looks the same as it did when I got my offer in February!

How the hell did you get into listening to Kaizers??? Anyways, I shall have to teach you Norwegian too then!! Just be warned; I only teach the Western Norwegian dialect

Hehe that's fine :-) From what I understand, Kaizers are meant to be singing in some form of dialect....I assume when they sing 'ikkje' they mean 'ikke' and 'eg' is 'jeg'? But it is amazing when you suddenly realise that 'drøm' is not in fact drum, but dream...thus making much more sense!

Well, it's quite a long story, but hey, just make sure you're sitting comfortably :-) basically, my brother showed me this animated video on youtube, something to do with war I seem to remember, and the song in the background was 'bak et halleluja'. I though it was a pretty cool song, very different from anything I'd heard before, so I probably wikipedia'ed them, and started searchng for a cd online. Only to find they're all really expensive. Luckily I was going to Berlin with my school, so I dragged my friends into a music shop and managed to find their live cd. I've loved them ever since! Their new album is awesome. I just love the fact that they sing in norwegian pretty much all the time. I was planning to go over and see them in Norway this summer, but it was just too difficult and expensive to get to...one day!

Anyway...back to topic! (slightly). Have you heard of the norse society? I'm sure I found it on a list somewhere...I will definately be joining that!

I've not heard of a norse society, have heard of the Nordic one though.. I will not be joining that though!!

Ah, that's what I meant....and why not?! Hehe. Actually I guess that must be a bit weird.

So what (norwegian) bands do you like? I youtubed 'norwegian ska' and this amazing song caled 'the shepherd' by Domi came up, which I was pretty impressed with.
