    legal humour

    The guy wrote writes that blog recently graduated from Harvard law and has a book deal because of the anonymous lawyer stuff. :) It's pretty entertaining when you're procrastinating.

    recommendations for foundation

    I second Chanel Vitalumiere - great (light-medium) coverage, fantastic texture and colour for fair skin. It'll last you the best part of a year which completely justifies the price. Another good one, if you can get your hands on it, is Shu Uemura Water Perfect. It doesn't feel like wearing...

    Scholarships

    True, but that clause was applicable to both scholarships in this instance. Some one-off scholarships might not have it. Certainly the $5000 is less than the $10,000, but conversely, the $10,000 is more than the $5000. And I'd rather take the 10 grand. :p

    Scholarships

    Do you mean you have the outstanding achievement scholarship and a faculty scholarship? Or you're hoping to hold both? Because I wasn't aware it worked like that. I accepted the distinction scholarship from the faculty of business and economics and had to turn down the scholarship for...

    Enforcing word limits

    So, I just wanted to know in general: how strict is the eco and bus faculty about annoying things like words limits? i mean, in law we were given the rule: one word over 1000 baby and half a mark off. but with these rather floppy ecop and govt word limits, i want to know what i can get away...

    GOVT1105 Assignment

    Is the cover sheet where it says it should be? Because when I type in the link it goes: sorry, nothing here. Gah.

    Law Faculty Welcome Day... n e pt. going?

    It comes with the course outline you get when you buy the readers. :p OR you can find it on WebCT and you can order the readers from studentnotesonline or something like that in MyUni. You know, I was almost enticed into crashing a maths lecture to hang with a friend of mine, until she...

    Blackboard enlisted me in course I don't do?

    Same thing - I can even see the results for Mid-semester exams 1 and 2? I wonder if it's an invasion of someone's privacy...:p Wow, 35.1% of the class failed Exam 1 and 32.6% failed the Exam 2.

    Timetable

    I got mine...and it's pretty spiffy, if I say so myself. It even works with my work schedule. :) Barring 2 hr lunch breaks, I have all back to back classes: 9-6 Monday, 10-2 Tuesday and 10-4 Wednesday. No classes on Thursday or Friday.

    stories and novels in second person..

    Half of mine was composed in second person. Well, admittedly, although I did a short story, the half in 2nd person was actually narrative verse. Still... [50/50] I've flicked through the Bride Stripped Bare and thought it was horrendous. But maybe that's where I got my idea to use 2nd person...

    Major/Minor

    Nah, you can't overload and pick up electives/subjects from an outside faculty if you're in Comb Law. I've tried just about every avenue. The Dean's office said it was against some senate resolution or another. Pity - was very disappointed. BUT should you be able to find someone to cave in and a...

    Power in Society or World Politics?

    World Pol is available second sem. I'm taking Geopolitics in sem 1 and World in sem 2 - I reacted in rather juvenile fashion to the Power in Society description (much too powerplays, argh). Not sure if geop. and world pol are too similar, but oh well.

    commerce/law question

    It's up on WebCT. I found it when I was messing around with MyUni yesterday. But it's still too early to be reading it, much less starting! :p

    So who am I doing law with? :)

    I've managed to lose that piece of paper. :( And I only had a chance to glance at it briefly - caught something about reading materials and that was it. Ah, habitual ineptness surely can't be kicking in already! :p
