Get a Yellow TravelPass. It will get you unlimited travel for the whole week bounded by Bondi Junction, Waitara (via North Sydney), Epping (via North Strathfield), Camellia, Parramatta, Chester Hill, Panania, Jannali and Olympic Park stations. So this will cover your train travel from Narwee to Central and from Central to Epping. You can also use it to go to the City or Parramatta or Chatswood during the week if you feel like going somewhere else. Also, it will cover your bus to and from Epping station to Macq Uni. It is $22 on concession. You can get higher and lower colours too, but this one will cover you.

Haha its made so much of a difference being able to drive into uni. No need to hurry, i can study and get home whenever, get there 15 minutes till the lecture or tute starts.
