Biochem should be on WebCT soon anyway, so you can grab the lecture notes from there.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

It was really intimidating. I barely knew anyone and I'm socially inept.

i felt the same way :S , but im sure it'll get better in the tutorials coz of the smaller class sizes, we'll get to know people better, as opposed to lectures where hardly anyone talks. so dw

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

Yes, until March the 31st which is the census date, otherwise known as the last day to bail from Uni - the numbers drop significantly after then, and when you come back after mid-term break, you'll notice less people.

Oh and I spotted Phanatical today. [/random]

I wouldn't have a clue what you look like.

I've always hated main campus, because at the Con I could just lie in the corridors and sleep if I had long periods between classes (I never did, though I did sleep in a corridor once). I've found a rather nice sleeping place for the 4 and a half hour break between my morning and afternoon classes now, so that makes me pleased - though I'll probably stop going to the afternoon lecture.

Don't worry.... I found first day of first year exactly like that as well... It'll get better soon, there is a lot of buildup to uni and what an experience it is- understandably when you get there it is going to be a letdown. But first day isn't reflective of how first semester or even first year will turn out- and first year isn't even reflective of how your time at uni will turn out to be...

You will get used to uni and if you are anything like me, you have to get used to classes, lectures, timetables and new places before you can get used to the people and actually start making friends. It will take a little bit of time but its not gonna be intimidating forever.

first of uni today... it was all right for me... abit lonely... lol everyone i befriend with ended up having a friend of their own and so ditches me after class lol

They will learn... people try and hold onto high school ties a lot at first... but soon it changes... they will grow to be more open to other people once their high school friends ditch them for other people or for study.


*** It was a good day for me... realised I actually know people this year and know where things are! Spot the first years was fun- they all dress up and try too hard to look "cool"- either that or they are talking on their phone outside manning saying "but where is this manning place?"

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

Yeah, the first years will stop turning up. Despite the fact that they're paying for their education now ...

Don't get it, don't need to. I'll just turn up to everything...

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

Why do they stop turning up? Considering I am paying for my education I'm going to do everything I can to get the most out of it, which means turning up for everything.

French 1631 was fucking mad for talent.

I sat at the door when it finished (half an hour early) and I swear to god the ratio of attractive to non attractive women was 6:1

Can't wait for tutorials...

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

Tutes are alright...I liked them. But fuckin lectures - gayest place to meet people ever.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

my 2-4PM ACCT1001 lecture threatre was so boiling hot, not to mention the 100 or so people there as well.

i did remember what the lecturer said (not specifically along these lines) "at usyd comes prestige, but what comes with prestige is old age..."

Considering anyone can turn up, you're not really paying for your lectures. Plus some of them are so boring it's better spent doing other things.

Recalling from last year, human bio in semester 2 was overloaded on talents.

Going to stop turning up to linear. Except maybe the quiz.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter

Question: Every time I visit the student centre, there's a ridiculously long line. I have to get some stuff sorted, but my timetable and laziness doesn't really permit me to wait in that thing. Are there any times when the student centre isn't busy?

God help me. I'm in your Lecture.

P.S - I could tell it was Brogan as soon as my pants started leaking as I came within earshot of his sexy voice.
