Had a busy last couple of days. Thurs and Fri I was at uni helping out with Degree in a Day, so all the selective school types were there. More stuff happened on Thurs though:

- Helped Faculty of Pharmacy with DID--escort kids to the various labs and stuff (and if any of those kids happen to stalk me here on BOS they would know straight away who I was)
- Walked all the way to Central RTA to get green Ps, which I got. My photo is fugly because the guy didn't count down, unlike at my local RTA, so I'm stuck with a weird smirk for the next 2 years. Pooh. At least it's not my full licence. And I've completely forgotten how long it takes just to do anything at any RTA. 1.5 hrs to do a 15 minute test and get my licence. Though admittedly I did queue up at the wrong counter (they didn't label it as licence test counter).
- Walked all the way back to uni for pharmacy revue meeting....yes, it's happening when I never thought possible as pharmacy kids are so...boring. Looks like we've got something good going here, plus a couple of YouTube videos thrown into the mix is always entertaining.

Haha yeah, my job is at uni, hence why I've been going in so much. I think since my last exam on Thurs, I've been into uni four times out of a possible six weekdays. That makes it...1.5 + 1.5 + 8 hrs = 11 hrs worth of work. Ah well, I like uni anyway. I'm such a uni junkie, I can see myself staying here for a very long time....lol, that reminded me of Alistair Cowie (Union guy), he's been at uni a long time.....

Just out of interest I decided to see if WebCT had changed yet and it has:

Went to Westpac bank to open up an account with them. Had to sit through a 20 minute interview about my future financial goals. Found out that I qualify for a $300,000 home loan and a creditcard. I refused the credit card. I know that would be my downfall.

Hopefully I can get my money together before the increased First Home buyers grant ends in July next year.

Conclusion: Westpac branches aren't as nice as my former traitor bank ANZ but it sure has better products.

Plan for today: See a gig tonight at a gay bar on Oxford street.

Yeah but what can you get for 300K?

I mean the subject pages are progressively being removed. That's actually really fast--I remember last year they didn't take it off till late Dec. Maybe it's just the particular subject coordinators. I also wanted to check there were no more outstanding marks because a whole lot just came through for med chem and physform (yep, after exams!)
