    Well if you don't want to share with people because you don't like noise you are really going to be looking at forking out a lot of money, so it is probably the best choice. I don't like noise either.... grrrr my stupid yank flatmates are generating a ton of it right now, and I am trying to...

    hoyts fox studios

    If you are going by PT, catch any of the buses that depart from stand C (I think, maybe it is B) in Eddy Ave at Central, on the side that the park is on. The buses arrive really frequently. Buses such as 372, 393, 395 + more (there are HEAPS) all travel right near Fox Studios, either down...

    Scurvy the new scourge of uni life

    Argh people didn't read what I was saying or maybe I was confusing. They act as if I am saying I am poor and suffering at uni which is not the case. If anyone read closely, they would have seen the phrase "centrelink makes me a happy camper".... I have been on centrelink payments for 2 weeks...

    Scurvy the new scourge of uni life

    The problem with deferring and trying to save up is this.... if you live in some shithole town, it's really REALLY hard to find enough work to earn the money.... and if you have to move to find work you end up spending most of the money on living away from home anyway, so you may as well go to...

    hoyts fox studios

    I used to work for Cirque du Soleil at Fox Studios.... the worst part about working at Fox Studios is trying to get out of there when there is a major event on like the footy.... absolute hell, no matter what type of transport you are using!

    CSU Vs. UTS

    I know it is really hard to get jobs in Bathurst, I have had friends move up there.... it's because students make up such a large percentage of the town.

    Scurvy the new scourge of uni life

    You can survive off YA + RA + 236 a fortnight..... but just. It also depends on how much your rent is (so basically where you go to uni).... but in regional areas and "uni towns" it can be really hard to find a part time job... so many students, so few jobs. YA + RA depends on whether you...

    Mao chic

    Yeah it's kind of weird. Like there is that shop Mao and More in Surry Hills that sells lots of that stuff. Some of those Chinese propaganda posters are kinda funky though. Even though I am a lefty I am not a believer in communism, and know about the atrocities committed by communist...

    Scurvy the new scourge of uni life

    YA + RA does not encourage part time work. If you earn more than $236 a fortnight (a figure which has NOT risen since 1992 despite massive increases in the cost of living, including the introduction of the GST) you start losing 50 cents in the dollar of your payment.... plus then you lose...

    Yeah I watched some of it, they played it on Fox 8 on pay tv once. It was a really cool show!

    Yahoo Word Racer

    I've played it many a time, however sometimes you type in a real word (more valid than some of the words in their dictionary) and it says it isn't a word! What the!!

    Week of Craziness!

    Sometimes the books get recalled when you have them, or other people want them so you can't reborrow. Sometimes library books are just easily forgotten about!

    What do you consider as being important?

    The future of accessable tertiary education Australia's immigration policy (particularly mandatory detention) and how we should change it to make it work in a more humane and effective way Trying to find solutions for problems in the third world Trying to find a way forward for...

    Outback House

    Yeah, the guy who wanted to quit was a bit annoying, but at the same time it would have been a bit of a shock and they left him out on his own with the sheep when he had no experience with it. I reckon he will slowly get used to it and come around. I think that Mr whatever his name is had a...

    Anyone watching? It is going to be a great series... I cried when Ali the sheep died.... Anyone else feel they will become addicted to this show?

    Teaching-Primary

    I don't do the course, but I am from Albury so if you have any Albury questions fire away. I didn't know they had Primary teaching at Albury.... it must be new? I thought they only had middle schooling and early childhood?

    CSU Vs. UTS

    I don't study nursing. But I can tell you that the social life at UTS would be less than at CSU Bathurst, esp since you are living on campus. We have sporting teams etc, but there isn't the same community atmmosphere that I assume there is at CSU Bathurst. Plus because it is the city, there...
