Re: Creative Writing: Hints Regarding structure, look at different short stories and identify similar patterns in the way they have been written. There is no be all and end all "perfect" story pattern (or our lives would read like newspapers!). If you're really struggling, think about drawing...

Don't look at how "hard" or "easy" a subject is.. it's hard to compare courses that way. Look at what you'll be doing and consider whether it's a fit for you as a student. For example: Are you good at managing your time? Will you be able to work on a major project between study for your...

Yay Sunny! :)

You should contact someone at the Faculty of Engineering (http://www.eng.unsw.edu.au/) or School of Computer Science (http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/) about your degree. They should be able to point you in the right direction regarding subject choices. It is possible to do five subjects a...

wtb alienware :drool: (btw, i think it's staticice.com.au?)

I'd go for extra RAM, and get normal DDR ram (not DDR2). An extra 512mb will be useful for CAD work and will be nice when running games. Other than that - if you want to shell out more, why not a better graphics card? 6600GT is end of the line for that series. (Though I hear it's still a...

Uhg. Apparently I type fast, but I haven't tested for some time.. if I'm really concentrating my accuracy is up around 98% but generally it's 95% or so due to changing my mind about how to spell things ;p I think it's about 100-120WPM. I'm going to get RSI, so it's not that great :p...

Is it working now? Could be the browser needs updating, altho I think you might have covered that. Or which browser are you using? Anybody else using the same ISP could be having traffic problems to that site?

I recommend .. but don't necessarily do .. a reformat every six months - a year. Generally if you have your hd partitioned it shouldn't affect any of your files (and you should back 'em up anyway) and it gets rid of all the crap that accumulates without needing to install more programs :P I...

Slightly OT, but Top Gear related so I thought I'd post: http://www.topgear.com/content/timetoburn/sections/galleries/other/awards05/01/ Top Gear's awards for 05, a photographic preview. :D

Graphics wise, I'll clarify Sunny: MOST laptops have inferior graphics cards to their desktop equivalents, mostly because of space (literally), heat and cost. Having said that, I had a Toshiba Satellite with the works once, and that had a better graphics card than my desktop at the time...

I'm not sure how much information I can divulge, but I'll risk the wrath of the powers-that-be.. Registered Bored of Studies members will be allowed to edit the wiki, and yes, it's integrated into the current user database so you won't have to register if you're already a member of the...

Just to let you know, the issue is under investigation. The HSC is, unfortunately, sooner than it looks. :)

Wow, nice thread Slipstream. :) I'm Phoebe, I live in Hurstville to the south where every car is a Camry ;) and I've been into cars for a while.. I guess since I met some friends who are into imports. I love to drive, I'd like to try drift one day (been to a few skidpan days as a passenger...

The guys (and girls) here can give you good advice but we need exact brand and model names for each of the components. The difference between two letters can mean a few hundred dollars and a variance in quality. :)

My suggestion would be to create a layer where the "contact bliss and eso".. part will be located on the actual site, then draw a white filled rectangle (or any other colour really). Move it to become the top layer, then set it to "lighten" (or something like that); it will make the top part of...

I tend to buy books which aren't on my wishlist before I do buy the ones which are.. something to do with perfection (perfect cover, perfect price, perfect font.. long list). A few books I want: * Goedel, Escher, Bach - Douglas Hofstadter * Crime and Punishment - Dostoevsky * any of the...
