    Using Money Overseas

    Travelling for holidays, cheques are reasonable considering it's a one off thing. However if you're staying long term, you might consider a debit card. I know a friend who did open an account in the US when he studied there however the opening procedure is a bit shady considering he was a US...

    Studying Shakespeare

    I did it this year and would reccomend it. If you don't get it, don't be shy. The tutor is willing to practically spell it out to some students sometimes. I enjoyed it and learnt beyond Shakespeare in my understanding. However, with that said, it's not always for everyone so if you're not...

    Nbl - Nhl - Nfl

    I'm a huge NHL fan and it kills me that I can't get to see most of my favourite games. And it's the most to the point sport I can ever love.

    Laptops for Uni

    Re: Laptops no offense but unless you're very organised and very well prepared, it's possible that a laptop will hinder you in writing notes depending on how your way of writing down notes is. Even in high school I hated turning on my laptop because I prefered to open a book, write a title and...

    Laptops for Uni

    Re: Laptops Some people go to lectures to sleep man! I've used some to eat my lunch. To be honest, I'm old fashioned and love the pen and paper. And the laptop isn't worth a one hour lecture.

    Ice Hockey

    Just go to a local match, they're dirt cheap and though the skill is very low, there aren't as many fights as there were back in "old school" nhl. Nowadays you can't guarantee a good game with fights what with the weird nhl schedules.

    Another of those Journalism/PR questions

    Hi I'm currently close to finalising my preferences considering I'm very sure that whatever I get will be more or less the same. Nonetheless I'm planning to do Arts/Law at Monash or Deakin whether it's via internal transfer or straight up. I've considered Arts/Law at Monash straight up mainly...

    Ice Hockey

    I want to learn to play too but I can barely skate in a straight line. Not to mention I probably play terrible hockey. Fighting in the AIHL here will get you kicked out and probably penalised (can't remember) mainly because a lot of the players are just regular guys and no one wants them...

    Where do you want your degree to take you?

    Be a Sports Journalist overseas! Whoo! Seriously, it's one of my dream jobs and if I got a chance to do it with poor pay, I'd be there in a flash.

    Ice Hockey

    Spoke too soon, he got himself two goals. But it's nothing against Marleau.

    UMelb vs Monash BA/LLB

    I was just about to mention the new scheme for UMelb. But don't sweat too much on picking high dream courses on the top, it's pretty much what people do. I'm pretty much in a similiar position as I'm having troubles with choosing what Uni and choosing the right direction You mention Melbourne...

    Ice Hockey

    The Sharks are one of the teams I love, not to mention I have Toskala on my fantasy team. But Cheech needs to get his head out of his ass and smooth out that funk. Finished my exams already so I've got lots of spare time.

    Practicing Law Overseas

    Really? I thought it was limited to what they offer. Nonetheless I'll try to ring them up one day (one day might not be anytime soon) about it.

    Journalism

    Haha yeah, I wouldn't rely on putting just an address in the portfolio. Not unless you were some sort of sensation. I just meant as one of the many examples of a portfolio, but I was mostly wondering if it was acceptable or tacky to do so.

    Ice Hockey

    Oilers represent! Well I'm going to Montreal to go see some Canadiens kick some ass, they're no Oilers but they'll do.
