Flying Sparks Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Hellooo my dear friends from green, peaceful Ireland :D I live in Vienna, the capital of Austria, and I just got the offer from a teacher of my school that I get one of four university places at "Waterford Institute of Technology". I haven't finished school yet, so I won't start studying there - it's just for one month. I'll be there in February next year and I was wondering if any Coldplay fans are at this university?! ;) I heard it's the third biggest university in Ireland.. I'm very excited, I've never been to Ireland before and it's a huge thing to get away from home for a whole month to study with strangers... Anyway, I was just interested in finding out what Waterford / Ireland thinks of Coldplay :wink3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifi Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Helloooo :) I'm not from Waterford, but I've been there plenty of times and it's beautiful :blush: You'll find LOADSSSSSS of coldplay fans over here :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifi Posted November 1, 2005 Share Posted November 1, 2005 Well waterford is a county :) the town is actually pretty small though :idea2: but it's full of pubs and they're always fun down the country :lol: I'm sure you'll love it! You just might find it a bit difficult to understand the accent :stunned: :idea2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying Sparks Posted November 1, 2005 Author Share Posted November 1, 2005 Yeah, I was already worrying about that.. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifi Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Don't worry too much, I'm sure not everyone from the college will be from waterford :idea2: :) and some accents are really mild and easy to understand :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
