I must say, O-Week was a complete surprise. I was thrown in the mud, had cordial & water poured on me, was rolled around in sand, manipulated into wearing a toga to a party that was definitely NOT a toga party, ran through QVB dressed appallingly and then jumped into a fountain, had goon poured...

I got a call AND an email from my mentor, his name is Dan. He will be wearing a green feather boa lol.

I work as a receptionist at a Doctor's surgery and I do the billing and close their batches - translation: i add up the amount they make and send and recieve it via Medicare. We have 4 doctors there, and on average they make about $1200 a day - and they don't specialise in anything. GP's are...

LOL well just for the record, I am definitely NOT a 'princessy' type girl - they shit me. But at the same time I'm not going to be walked all over, I don't mind getting messy and looking retarded, but I don't particularly like to be in pain for no apparent reason either. And if I were in the...

My favourit book for the moment (I change quite frequently) is probably The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. An excellent writer, best I have seen in some time and a compelling story line. I think its Love.

How do they actually make you do that crap? Why can't you just tell them to piss off lol I'm there out of necessity, not out of a ridiculous need to be accepted by anyone, and since they can't exactly throw me out, why couldn't I simply tell them to get stuffed lol I'm boarding, not joining a...

Yeah not exactly comforting is it...

What's the Big O? And yeah no playing in sandpits for me thank you lol I hope the underage activities won't be crappy because I want to do Big Girl Stuff! lol

lol yeah I'm not 18 until mid April... and from reading some of the other posts it seems that the baby freshers are the ones picked on most, and apparently we need to invest in a fake ID if we want to enjoy O-Week fully lol

no i haven't yet. I'm going to be a so called 'baby fresher' and am a little afraid lol should i be worried?

Hey, yeah i'm going to St John's this year. Are you a fresher?

Thanks for the tips! My teacher just tells us to study everything equally b/c it's all important and blah blah - she's not very realistic lol. I wish I wasn't tired... I'm considering taking a power nap for about an hour so I can really concentrate, but I plan on finishing SOR study first...

I too am cramming last minute and staying up all night. No one to blame but myself. I am the worst procrastinator - take now for instance, on here rather than studying. Anyone have any tips on the best method of studying for Ancient? Modern I can retain, but Ancient seems to go in one ear and...

Re: Two exams in the same day? I have modern tomorrow, one day break, extension english on Thursday and then Ancient and Religion II on Friday.... it makes me a little homicidal thinking about it lol

Re: The Poem Was About A Dog? I thought it was titled 'Darwin' because there's a Darwin Island that is a part of the Galapagos Islands, I just assumed that was the specific island he was referring to...

(Sorry only just saw this reply) I'm not sure whether you misunderstood my point but what you just said -That was precisely my point! People recognise that fat people take offense to being called 'fat' but society fails to recognise that those labelled too thin may also take offense. And...

Childhood to Yr 6 = doctor Yr 7 to Yr 9 = lawyer Yr 9 to Yr 10 = foreign correspondent Yr 11 t- Yr 12 = maybe journalism but realistically I'll probably just do something in a Bachelor of Arts and then get a job and hopefully use those skills. Hopes and dreams lost because of the HSC lol a...

Agreed. The media play a negative role in just about everything. They've stopped simply informing people of current events and now change around every story to suit their own agendas. Just to mention - I still can't believe Australia voted in the Labor Govt and Rudd. How utterly pathetic...

This is the first I've heard of Rudd banning skinny models, and quite frankly I think he's focusing on the wrong issue altogether. Australia now has the largest percentage of obese people. This, to me, is just as bad as anorexia/bulimia if not worse. Obesity has become acceptable within our...

My half yearlies are coming up in the next couple weeks and I have been studying Trotsky like mad, but i'm just really not understanding! What were his major contributions? What was he opposed to and what did he agree with? Did he agree with the NEP? Dates - im really confused with the dates...
