    What UAI would you be content/happy with?

    Anything over 75 will make me happy :). I'm not too fussed-the truly revolutionary people in this world didn't go to university and look at their effect on the world. And, as the poem has it: To follow the path: look to the master, follow the master, walk with the master...

    2 Gap years?

    Not sure, will probably do it illegally to earn a bit and to experience the culture, but to work in eastern europe LEGALLY involves massess of red tape, so will work, but can't put it on my resume because if they check up...well....yeah. :).

    2 Gap years?

    Myself and my friend plan to travel across russia/europe (from Vladivostok to London) in 2010, but are probably going to take 2009 off to raise money. We have wanted to do this for quite a while. I am planning on doing an apprenticeship as a sparky (electrician) and hopefully becoming a...

    The Woolworths Thread

    Dude welcome to the phenomenon called woolworths clones. I think its a sad thing that people lose what makes them human and become so obsessed with the whole 'sales, sales, sales' mentality. That AND they're so obsessed with reaching the top that they work from opening to close, say after day. I...

    The Woolworths Thread

    Give them a few weeks notice, probably one month is sufficient but maybe 2 if you can handle waiting. Just don't quit with short notice-you're burning a bridge that you might need later on if you do that.

    Sex before marriage, would you or wouldn't you?

    Question: If everyone's having sex then how could that person feel special? To be special you need to be unique in my opinion. and to be unique in our society, in the 21st century, in terms of sex, means to wait. Now there could be some flaws in what I've said but in my opinion what you said...

    Underoath

    What do people think of them? They're the kind of band which reward those who look beneath the 'screamo' tag. Their lyrics prove that =). Did anybody go and see them when they were in June?? It was funny because they played at the roundhouse (UNSW) which is right next to the Law building, so...

    Sex before marriage, would you or wouldn't you?

    True, maybe 6 months was a bit TOO long =). Basically (in my opinion) wait until you know that neither of you are in it JUST for the sex, but that you genuinely love each other-whether that time is 6 days or 6 months. But I'm definetly not one to go hooking up at parties and shit. If you wait...

    Sex before marriage, would you or wouldn't you?

    Hmm.....I'm not Christian or anything, but I DO believe that sex is not something that should be given out freely at parties and shit. I think you should wait until you are in love, and have been in love with the person for a few months (6 at least)-I think its wrong (but not labelling the...

    Tips for travlling to Europe

    Take Euro, as most countries in Europe use the Euro as their currency....it's worth shit all aussie dollars (1 Euro=FOUR Aussie dollars!!!) but itll be worse if you have to convert it over there, I think. Pick up the lonely planet book 'Europe on a Shoestrong' (make sure its the LATEST one)...

    Quitting Wooles!!!

    Same-work at woolworths is a golden example of 'you sew what you reap'. If you're unreliable, show up to work late, and dont pull your weight, then what reason does everyone else in the shop have to be nice to you and make the shop a nice place for you? I really enjoy my work at woolies, and...

    has anyone Volunteer Work?

    Rural Fire Serivce looks awesome on your resume mate-it's not dangerous at all, as the safety requirements are extremely well made to suit all types of volunteers. I've been doing it since I was 16 (miniumm age) and it's a great way to help people. Makes you feel real good about yourself. Just...

    Anyone else thinking of becoming a firey when they leave school? Im dead serious about it-anyone know anything about it that could be helpful? All help/information is greatly appreciated. P.S I'll probably do an apprenticeship in Electrotechnology before I apply....
