I am tossing up whether it's worth going to o-week.
What does everyone else think?

I started a different uni course at a different uni last year, and I went o week, and hated it. I found it boring and unnecessary.
But at the same time, I suspect that this is when people will make most of their friends and stuff, so maybe it is worth going...?
It's just I have to move to Wollongong and stuff, and if I go to o-week I will have to rush to get down there, where if I don't I'll have an extra week to move in. I don't want to have to rush if o-week won't be worth it.

i suspect the university hasn't organised much for O-week. Unless your living on campus, nothing notable will be happening.

and "north-west sydney" is pretty far away.

I think O-week is really about 2 or 3 days for domestic students. The first 2 days of the week are more for international students, and their enrolments. Then over wed - fri you get domestic orientation stuff. If i remember my O-week correctly (2002), i only had like 1 day of stuff. The rest of the time was just spent with mates and going around the uni doing stupid stuff. And town was packed at night. Theres a thing at the unibar on Thursday night too of O-week, thats for the first years. And thats about all i remember.

Hmm, I've come to a conclusion: I think I'll give o-week a miss, except for Thursday when there's some stuff relevent to me going on.

We wait in a line and get our names marked off. :)

Or we can not bother. I know I rarely used my diary.
