depends on what time you finish in the afternoon if there is a student crowd walking back. if you finish at like 3pm, there is alot of usyd'ers walking back so there is no need to worry. but there isn't any need to worry if you are walking back at any other time as well... ive walked to redfern at 6pm and it was fine. there weren't that many of us walking back, but there was some. and plus there are always coppers hanging around the station area during peak times.

What if u want to stay in the library and study?? :confused:

If it is that scary...i'd need to leave uni early and won't have time to spend at the library i guess. :(

i walked it once and it took me 35 minutes!

man, u musta been sprinting all the way or something
??!!! Geez, you two must walk alot slower than me. It takes me around 15 minute max to get to uni, and I guess I'm used to 15 minute power walks since I've been walking to school for about 8 years now and each trip takes like 30 minutes. Oh well hopefully I'll have a car soon.

Trying to find parking will be another story though..

Actually, I'm going to uni tomorrow to get some paperwork sorted out, so I'll see if I can remember to time myself walking from Central.

I walked from usyd to circular quay and it took me 40 minutes. I think 20-25 minutes would be more accurate.
Again, people seem to be doubting me (directly or indirectly).. hmm maybe I'AM tripping, like I said I'll time myself tomorrow.

If I take longer than 25 minutes, I'll shout you all out for lunch. Erm.. all of you who doubted me that is. :p

I have to agree with ya. I would rather walk & it only takes me like what? 15 mins to get there

Today afternoon a friend and I were walking along Broadway Road to the car after kung fu training and some group of Abbos went up to try to intimidate him. Some of them are just giving Aborigines in general a bad name, it's quite a shame.

What course are you doing? I thought you were doing science too, lol damn. I'll take a blind stab and guess that you're doing either Arts or Law????????????? ......................

I actually wanted to originally get into BSc (Nutrition) & BHSc (Exercise & Sports physiology) but the frikken UAI rose about 3 points. But that's irrelevant now because I'm leaning towards doing graduate medicine in which the BSc will do me just fine.

it depends on where u are u c, eg. if ur near carlslaw- then u can catch a bus to central from city road (under the wentworth bridge) or if its closer- u can also catch a bus from parrammatta road. but these buses cost like 80cents.

also there are security shuttle busses that run after 4pm i think- and it takes u to redfern for free. :D
