    How busy is the library these days? My exams were over over two weeks ago and I need to go in to print some CVs, but I won't bother until after Friday if it's still hoaching.

    It's quietened down.

    I went in to take out a book today and there were computers free on level 2.

    Empty. Exams finish on the 18th. Also the story I heard was that the Zumba dude went and punched one of the guys, but that could be made up.

    Apparently some guys from the top bit of the gym kept filming girls in Zumba classes on their mobile phones. The guy who runs Zumba kept stopping the class and going to complain about them downstairs. I was never at classes where that happened though. Now it looks as if Sandy Zumba has quit for good :cry2: He had a Farewell Zumba but I didn't go to it as I had an exam.

    I think there must be more to it than that though because I'd imagine it'd take more than some idiots and their mobile phones to stop him doing all those full classes week after week
    Ah ok, that sucks... I was never quite comfortable being onlooked by the gym-goers, but it clearly didn't put people off (or me when it came down to it :P ). What jerks to be filming! Think what we need is (a) blinds for the top gym but (b) Zumba classes on 8 hours of the day... they're clearly popular enough!

    Checked exam results today. Cracked already. This is gonna be a long couple of weeks.

    (In my defence, I know at least one of my papers has been marked...)
    Aren't they sending out emails when exam results come through again? I've told myself I can't start obsessing till June.

    Guess it's harder when it's your finals though!

    I haven't heard about that, although word on the street* is that I'll have to wait 'til June 11th. That is definitely sensible.

    And yeah I guess, I've got conflicting feelings about my exams/dissertation so it would be nice just to get the results through!

    *the street outside Viper at 2am after an all day session, right enough...
    I think I heard the 12th, I think we will get an email although of course that means MyGlasgow will immediately and catastophically crash.

    Edit: Deadline does appear to be 12th

    I've heard everything has to be out by 15th of June so honestly I'm expecting them July kind of time...

    IIRC the emails we got for Christmas exams told us our grade so there was no need to then go on mycampus, the issue was the results were normally up on mycampus a few days before the emails got sent out!
