Not really a quirk, but I think I spotted that HalcyonSky dude in uni today, around the cafeteria at lunch tyme.

Was in a rush to get to class though, so didn't really spot him proper. But the hair and mopey face looked similar.

/contribution.

PS. Yeah M, sup?

Does Halcyon even go to Newie? :s

Found out today that my GIS subject wasn't in fact credited, and now I have to do 3 subjects next sem instead of 2, eating into my job-that-I-don't-have time. I enjoy the fact that I applied for this in November, and have been notified 5 weeks after the cut-off date for adding new units. Now I'm probably going to rethink all 3 subjects so it doesn't get too hectic..already have 10 days of intensive school which will be exxy.

And my retard assignment was due today and there were so many fucking rules and regulations. Not entirely sure, but I may already be penalised 11.8% for having 118 words over the 1000 page report (I fucking tried :(). At this point, if I do get penalised, I hope my lecturer gets stabbed or something :)

EDIT: Cbf atm but tell Corinne I'll check out train times and shiz for Wednesday and let her know tomorrow :)

That's what I thought, and was why I was tripped out.

My eyes aren't that bad, are they? :/

That sucks balls. 1% penalty for every 10 words over? Wtf? Usually it's something reasonable like they give a 10% buffer over and under the word count. Shifty.

Yeah, what's happening Wednesday that I don't know about?:uhoh:

I'm sure there's tonnes of guys that look like Halcyon that go to uni haha.

Yeh it's 1% penalty for every 1% over. Limit is 1000. Not entirely sure if it applies to that assignment though. His specification was 'no more than 1000'. So far he's been a total dick to me though so I have a feeling I will lose out.

I think I'm on to something with trying to be here by 8:30am. No traffic and pick of the parks ftw. The only thing is that I dont have much work to do so I'm kinda bored :(


You're doing what with my gf?


Take a camcorder.

And you have to get up when? I agree, it is better, but not every day.

Leave a note on your dashboard saying the ticket machine is broken and you don't know what to do or something. I've done it a few times (though yeh, really was broken)..never mind the fact there are other machines. They're always kilometres away.



















If you get a fine it's not my fault. :eek:

I'm only at uni for 2.5 days most weeks, so it's all good. It just means I have to wake up an extra 30 minutes, and even then I spend most of the morning watching Spongebob and Today.

It's awesome, you leave 30 minutes earlier and get to uni an hour earlier.

Today's 'quirk', though it's more an annoyance, and it's been longer than today, are fucking ants who would prefer to crawl all over my clean tissue box and tissues and ignore empty glasses/plates/crumbs.

Wot?
