oh hi guys, i'm in arts, i didn't see you there - was too busy wading through all the pretty girls in arts

Re: The Official Cricket Thread Nothing, usually the people that talk about her - who are male - go all fanboy and go "OMG OMG OMG". In my experience. That's what I figured about it. Anyway, caught the replay of the whatever the match was last night... got to watch the first ever super...

Scream. was expecting something scarier

Re: The Official Cricket Thread I'm going to go out on a limb here and posit that you're female, because how else can you describe Mel as "that chic"?!?! Also one thing has been bugging me about the Big Bash - I watch it sometimes because it's on, and cricket is cricket and... I don't mind...

It's not work experience they want, it's relevant work experience, mostly. If you're looking for a job just for money, then it doesn't matter. If you want a job with a view to helping your career, you should get in on internships and summer vacation scholarships and things like that.

Which university is this?

Re: The Official Cricket Thread oh you mean Mel McLaughlin? yeah she used to host the A-League stuff on Fox

Yes, you want to know your hours you're available beforehand - you don't really want to chop and change early into the job because you just made a new timetable.

Yeah. I finished November 23 and I go back on like March 3. Yes, because MQ breaks are weird (i.e. two weeks mid-semester break) and other stuff I'm sure too. Here are the 2013 dates of breaks: End of Year Break: to March 3 (includes O-Week) Mid-Semester Break for Semester 1: March 30 to...

I got into football (soccer) refereeing just in the past year. That was fun, I got paid to exercise pretty much, and... yeah. So if there's a sport you're into, umpiring or refereeing as a job could work.

Information systems are about the programs companies use, so yes it is the application of technology to businesses. Designing software is more on the software engineering side or so...

Casual job? Not full time? It could work. I had a casual job, I worked weekends during uni, and that was fine. I have other friends who work as baristas and stuff and they take one or two days off, but they're Arts students anyway so they have those days off already... but their social life...

No problem. If you have to work to come to uni, then... well, that's non-negotiable then. You sound a lot like one of my friends actually... she's extremely busy, and the last time we properly got to catch up was October, and since then it's been two random sightings. I'll say this though...

Re: The Official A-League Thread. so how about those ffa sanctions huh (srsly, i thought we'd have more fans of our own national league here...)

Personally, I'm an advocate of goal-setting structure. Allocate time for work, yes - but it should work towards goals like "Write a practice essay" or "Complete two past papers" or "Finish all homework", instead of "I will do 2 hours of Modern History, and then 2 hours of Business Studies...

I'm going to say straight out, from my (selfish) perspective: it's a bad idea... for your (uni) social life. I have a few friends who have gotten internships and now work full time, with a part-time uni load. I never see them, pretty much. We have to go out of our way to catch up. I went to...

Commerce is generally regarded as better at UNSW, but for Law... arguably Sydney would be more prestigious. Toss up. As ifrit said, do some research on the important stuff. Imagine a week at uni - and research everything you're not sure about, like how you'll get there, or where to get food, or...

99% of the time, if you don't do well in a course, it's attributable to you. Everyone has to deal with the same lecturer, the variable is yourself. There are tons of resources available, and lecturers are generally very approachable and willing to discuss their subject area with interested...

Well, there's only three "Level 2" Finance courses. FINS2624 (Portfolio Management) FINS2643 (Wealth Management) FINS2622 (Emerging Capital Markets) Now I did the first one and that was quite mathsy (for finance) and that's based more on pricing bonds and stuff, I have friends who did the...

ah i have one of those (not the same kind), i call them 'electronic keyboards' although i worry my terminology may be slightly wrong... nice, what sorts of songs? I'm guessing more contemporary stuff?
