    hot email tip: options > global options > display options lets you change the colour scheme. 'azur' is probably the best one.

    What Clubs and Societies did you join today?

    and i didn't join anything because i don't want to buy an access card this year, and didn't end up going to o-week. i'm in the facebook groups for gaius gracchus, SASS and a few others, so i'll still get their event notifications anyway.

    What Clubs and Societies did you join today?

    GOVT is a popular subject, but unfortunately PolSoc is the shittest thing on earth. (maybe two social events in the whole year, one of which is limited to honours preparation students, and then the occasional lecture from someone semi-notable. compared to almost any other discipline's society...

    Do you buy a yearly train ticket?

    for a flexipass you can specify the exact start and finish dates, so you could just get it to run until the last day of semester 2, or buy one at the start of each semester. (and you can get concession on yearly flexipasses, just not on yearly travelpasses.)

    4 out of the 5 people i've asked so far missed the notice to sign up for concessions. usyd has really stuffed that one up.

    Semester 1 Timetables

    if you're going to be living on campus or close to uni then take the four-day timetable, since that avoids the five-hour block on mondays. but if you have a long commute take the three-day timetable, because you don't want to be commuting any more than you have to.

    Do you buy a yearly train ticket?

    if it's a ticket to the city then yes, you can travel to or from any CBD station, which includes town hall. and since granville comes before fairfield when you're travelling home, yes, you can get off there.

    Semester 1 Timetables

    can't be bothered posting up my timetable, but in summary it's 3 days, not many hours (i think someone's stuffed up at the timetable unit, because one of my subjects is meant to have 4 contact hours but i've only been given 2), massive breaks everywhere. can't change it at all because most of my...

    Do you buy a yearly train ticket?

    flexipasses let you travel anywhere within the bounds of the stations named on the tickets. so if you buy a wherever - city ticket, you can get off at the city or anywhere before it. i know this for a fact because i've done it for the last two years.

    Travel pass for train & private+public buses

    yeah, there's not much point going to the extra expense of buying a travelpass to cover the brief trip from central to usyd when you can just train to redfern and walk from there.

    more or less impossible to find a place on campus that fills all three criteria. (especially in the first month or so of Semester 1 when all the first years decide to be cool and buy all their food on campus, so manning and wentworth are completely packed.) just go to broadway or newtown.

    The Official NRL Thread

    i wish i could believe this will happen. unfortunately queensland still have a biggish lead in talent, and all other things being equal i think they'll get the four-peat this year. that'll be humiliating. predictions: -bulldogs to rebound and make the 8 -rabbitohs to fail miserably, despite...
