Hey all...
Just wondering for all you first years whether on campus or off having moved out of home how have you found settling in to uni life...
Is anyone out there finding it really hard?
or
Is this what you where born to do?

I'm loving it!

Coming from a hole to here, tends to have a better impact on you......Theres no reason to miss home.

As for the sydney people, I spose I can't be in your shoes for now. But I'm having the best time!

Hate It!

Doing teaching/psychology. I absolutely hate Uni in Bathurst and am thinking of quitting - I want to be a PE teacher but I don't want 4 years of being somewhere I hate. I might do Psychology by DE but then what the fuck would I do with a psych degree? I want to be a counsellor.

belar86 --> where you staying and where are ya from? You've crossed the cenus date so don't drop out, even if you go DE or something. Could always wait it out and then apply for a transfer somewhere...


I'm loving it here though. Got drunk after the footy last night. Lots of fun

Bla Bla Bla

Belar86... who are you? You do my course... Haven't been on heer for ages but wanna kow if you statyed with the course or not. And Fro, i live about 50m away from you and it's people like you who made me hate this uni in the first place... but i love it now cos there are somany more people than the ones like you here and they always say with the bad come the good and i've figured that out now... that said, i reccomend CSU Bathusrt to all you peeps considering it, it's awesome here... especially if you live on campus (traditional diggings particularly...)

Cheers Guys

(traditional diggings particularly...)

Yeah, I have two friends that (to the best of my memory) are staying in the traditional diggings, and they seem happy there. Plus, when I visited, I stayed with them, and it was a nice enough place to stay.

You know, though, this bundyy/Fro confratation has made me realise that I was kind of hoping that there wasn't a high-school type social system when I finally got to University. I mean, I accept that there'll be asshats wherever you go in life, but even after you move hundreds of k's away to live on campus?

*Sigh*

I am a Wagga girl too, and although I'm not at Uni, quite a few of my friends are living at home in and around Wagga and they have settled into Uni community and culture easily... Get yourself involved in as many groups as you can, and you'll make heaps of varied friends easily...

I have a few friends doing Maths and x teaching (with x being either IT or Physics)... Please, if you get in on PREP, don't go ahead and get a 99.00 UAI anyway!! (Grrr! at my formal partner!!)

Sorry Fro :(

Can't believe i randomly jumped on here to find a reply to a vent that wasn't evensupposed to be posted... Sorry Fro, you know i love you!! Just stupidity on my behalf I guess, a misunderstanding... whatever!! You're an awesome kid... And for the record, for all those who might've thought something of that last post of mine, disregard it.. Fro's a champ, everyone loves him and if you end up here @ CSU, there's no doubt he'll make you feel welcome as all hell and will keep you laughing!! Have a great holiday fro, go easy on the alcohol :) Hope to see you back a little early... I promise my dormies won't run around with your undies on their head. Take care xx
