    PC experiencing sudden blackouts

    My computer has been misbehaving lately. :( I get random blackouts and my monitor says that it doesn't detect a signal and I'm forced to restart. It'll do this every time about 5 minutes after I login to Windows. I got frustrated today and started pounding on the keyboard and everything worked...

    New focus for 2008?

    My sister is doing her HSC in 2008. I realised that she'll have a different AOS focus and I'm wondering if any information has been released about this? Do they get new specimen papers?

    Which intro GOVT subject should I choose?

    I'm looking for a filler subject as I have 6 spare cps to use up and the GOVT subjects look interesting. Are GOVT subjects anything like ECOP1001 for those who have done both (not in terms of content, but in the way diverse thinking is embraced)? I'm choosing between these three intro GOVT...

    Treadmill Recs

    It's getting really cold and I'm getting too lazy to go for runs outside anymore, and much much too lazy to drive to the gym, so I thought I'd buy myself a home treadmill. There's so many to choose from though and the price range is crazy and I don't want to spend more than $2500 on it if...

    Portable DVD Player?

    I've been thinking of getting one for my parents to have on long car trips but I don't know what I need to look for in a decent portable dvd player. The main thing would be screen quality and audio quality, but also something not too clunky. Two earphones should be able to be plugged into it...

    Ecop1001

    I've got some spare credit points to throw around so I wanted to pick a fun/easy subject to learn something I'm interested in and boost the WAM. ECOP1001 has been marketed to me as the easiest subject in Eco&Bus, and I want to get your opinions on this. What are the...

    The Perfect Face?

    Having had this conversation recently with a few friends, we came up with really different ideas of what was the perfect face. Shows how subjective the 'perfect face' can be. It does seem like the ideal of beauty is slowly widening, past the ecocentric beach-blonde beauties of the 80s. Just...

    Has anyone received email confirmation of enrolment yet?

    This is second yr and above enrolment by the way, I'm sure it works differently for 1st yrs. I paid on the last day they were due through the phone and I've been waiting for a confirmation for a while now. Has everyone else received any confirmation of enrolment yet? Through mail/email or otherwise?

    How to wear these boots?

    I've just bought a pair of tan boots that look remarkably similar to the Chloe Pirate boots in this pic: They looked nice on, but I've realised going through my wardrobe, that I haven't a clue what to wear them with. I'm not a fan of shorts and skinny jeans so those are out for me. I guess I...

    2006 Grammy Fashion Picks

    Not many really great outfits this year, though some that were nice: (Oh vey, didn't realise the pics were so huge. I haven't discovered an easy way to resize the pics yet.) Beyonce - looks to have lost some weight, but wow, wish I had curves like that! Carmen Electra - Just really classy...

    Online shopping sites you love?

    I'm a huge fan of online shopping, so I thought it'll be nice to have a list put together or reliable sites to buy from. It can be sites for clothes, bags, sunnies, cheap designer stuff, makeup, music, books etc. Anything you'll tag for future purchase from basically! Just give a link to the...

    Do you prefer to be overdressed or underdressed?

    By nature I'm more overdressed than most people because I like getting dressed up and trying different outfits. At the same time, when I'm wearing something bummy I feel shy and less like myself. So I think I prefer being overdressed, even if it means having ppl whisper "Look at what she's...

    Has advertising here gotten you many good students?

    So it seems that anyone and everyone who got a Band 6 in anything is advertising their tutoring services in this forum. :) So has it worked? Anyone actually found a long-term student/tutor through here. Personally, I find the best way of getting students is when a current student brings in...
