I would like to formerly welcome Na Gael Óg into the world blogging, maith sibh leaids!

Ceapaim go bhfuil sé in am díobh fíor suíomh a fháil áfach, ach, sin scéal eile.
And as a general message to all Gaeilgores, this is in English for democratic reasons,: “if you want to save the language all you have to do is be cool, look at Hector and Seán Óg-each contributing a huge amount without actually signing any more bleedin’petitions”
I’m sorry, its been a bad week for petitions. Someone gave out to me for refusing to sign a petition about DITs decision to close the library, wait for it, a full half hour early!!! We really need that extra half hour of procrastrination dammit-I aint lettin the man take it away-fuck you motherfucker!! PriCK!! Fuck the man, man! Fight the Power!! The wheels of (the drinks)industry are greased with the blood of the student(and parent/gaurdian/pimp/grants system). I am so sick of DITs monopoly on library opening hours, I mean, I have absolutely no intention of being in a library until 9.30pm but if I were a better student I might consider it-bleh etc.=Insert Jokes Here=
Man did that post die a death, there won’t be any postmortem here children

The ‘Glór na nGael’ petition over FG’s policy for making Irish optional for the L Cert was embarrasing.

That whole debate really confused me. After switching from violently pro to anti and back again I decided to just stay out of it. Its a bit like this ‘half an hour of English a day’ thing. On the one hand it completely neuters gaeilscoils in Dublin but it may be vital in gaelteacht areas.
The LC is an interesting one though. I was brought up with more or less fluent Irish but despised it before I finished 4th year due to consistently awful teachers teaching a terrible course badly. I think Irish has to be optional out of respect for the migrant community but also, I believe that ‘a language/any language’ should be compulsary
