    Jackass

    I always swore I would never stoop so low as to waste $10 on seeing the movie, but Thursday was my day off from uni and a friend and I had nothing better to do so we went along to see it...well...I can't say I enjoyed it but it did have one element that made it watchable: Johnny Knoxville. That...

    Hey sorry it took me so long to get back to this thread! Nah, I'm doing journalism, although I guess this semester the courses are much the same anyway cause of Contemporary Cultures/Comm. & Info. Environments/Power & Change in Aus. So yeah, each Mon, Tues, Wed I too sit in that freezing...

    timetables

    Some faculties gave out timetables on enrolment day, others are apparently being distributed during the O-week faculty welcomes. I got mine on enrolment day (I'm in Humanities & Social Sciences) and, like what you saw on the website, it's pretty bare...I think I've got about 12 hours a...

    I went in for the welcome/info sessions/campus tours yesterday so I could get an idea of where everything was, how it all ran, etc. It was a pretty good day but I don't think it would make a particularly big difference to your first few weeks at UTS had you not gone. I couldn't be bothered...

    English texts you actually liked!?

    The Real Inspector Hound was great, sooooo much better than Snow Falling On Cedars and The Big Sleep!! Even my Ext 1 teacher despised The Big Sleep. It was awful... I also grew to love Ros & Guil Are Dead. Didn't like it at first but saw a production of it (the one in Erskineville where you...

    Who's seen Chicago?

    Thought the movie was awesome...Catherine Zeta Jones did an especially good job in her role As mentioned in an above post, I also loved "Cell Block Tango"...cinematography (of the whole film) was great, and done by an Australian apparently!

    The guys totally took the wrong approach with the balancing on the log thing. Of course they were gonna keep falling off with the way they did it! IMO, the best way would've been to walk quickly so that they built momentum and could've like propelled themselves along the log...of course, with...

    Who's going to what events? Are you going to everything, or nothing? Personally, I'm undecided...I know I'll go to the undergrad welcome and my faculty welcome (Humanities & Social Sciences) but beyond that have no idea what will be worthwhile and what won't...

    welcome to the uts forum

    I have to admit that I was initially turned off by the UTS tower building because it didn't look like a "real" university (I had grand visions of studying at USyd or UMelb based almost entirely on the fact I liked their respective atmospheres). When uni became more of a reality, though, and I...

    PIP award ceremony...

    I was at the ceremony tonight! Traffic was a bitch and I got there like 20 minutes late though...ah well, what can you do? I was the one that went up the front and the MC-guy was like "You look nervous". I totally was!

    michael moore

    Never got to see The Awful Truth and haven't been along to Bowling For Columbine yet, but read Stupid White Men and loved it...then again, I suppose I'm slightly biased in the way that I view George Bush in much the same light that Michael Moore does...although you have to take everything that...

    So what did the dux of your school get?

    I got 98.55 and don't know of anyone in my year who got higher than that *excuse me while I blow my own horn here* so I guess that makes me dux...(my school uses UAIs to determine who gets it)...next after me was a 97.45 and then a 96.9, followed by some in the 90-95 bracket...this was at a...

    Usyd january 2nd day for high achievers

    Still undecided as to whether I'm going to go to the USyd High Achievers thing tomorrow...I got 98.55 but the only thing I applied for there was a Bachelor of Arts (UAI last year was 77 or something) and it's like my 3rd or 4th preference...then again, I'm going to the UTS Advisory Day on Friday...

    2002 UAI's

    98.55 I'm absolutely stoked...Thursday night I punched my results into LazSeeker and it came up with 98.55...I laughed and laughed and resigned myself to the fact that it was never gonna happen...set my sights on something between 90 and 95... But hey, LazSeeker turned out to be 100%...

    impeding sense of doom

    That sorta happened to me too! The day of my English half-yearly (so what was that, like early April or something) I got so sick with stress, and actually had to leave the exam room to throw up. From there my stress levels rose and fell, usually in line with my assessment schedule, but as the...

    would you go to......

    University of Melbourne!! This is where I would absolutely love to go, but it's competitive so I'm not getting my hopes up too much...first preference is Media & Communications, which has an ENTER of like 98 or something (ENTER is directly equivalent to UAI) and then second preference is Arts at...
