o-week (2 Viewers)

[glycerine]

is it important to go to allll of o-week? i would ideally like to attend, but there's one day in particular (weds 22nd) i'm going to have to do a full day of work training and it's important so i can move permanently away from my shithole department and into somewhere i actually like. i was just looking at the program and was thinking maybe trying to get my shift done as early as possible (although this would be 5pm at the earliest) and going to the nighttime stuff.
thoughts from people who've already started?

[carrotz]

if you can't make it a particular day.. don't fuss too much about it

i should have applied to be a PN before feb

seems like fun and a chance for a new way of developing some skills

[peepee]

is it important to go to the official welcome? i work in an office in the city andwill have to beg for time off...

 

[Logistics]

Nothing is important at UNI if you ask me.
Only thing important is your Assignmnts and Exams.
You don't have to go to any of those things.
It's just people talking stuff that you'll find out for yourself later on.

nah not really, its really just a whole bunch of people in academic gear, greeting you.

 

[dan_viper88]

Do you think im better off going to o-week with (welcome and tour) or is it better to just do saturday 25th all day session. Whats the diff, if there is one? Or is orientation a waste of time all together, should i go?

 

[ioniser]

O week sounds like shit at uts,all my friends at usyd and unsw have all these other organised events such as dance parties,movies to be played,and some djs playing music throughout the day

wheres the uts crew to orgainse all this stuff?


uts union>shit

uts union>shit

You know that's a pretty ambiguos comment "uts union (greater than) shit", that means they could be gods! lol
I just wish I could meet someone I knew (or that would atleast talk to me.) Sweiously I tried starting conversation with some different people, some simply IGNORED me and walked away others said something in reply THEN walked away... Am I doomed to know no one?
