I like how my xenophobic tendencies are completely satsified and satiated after every visit.

not too far away from my favourite coffee place on campus (biblio). so it's 'win' all round :D
on my campus tour in oweek, the yellowshirts said Biblio was the worst place on campus to have coffee. Coffee cart was apparently teh best. I suggest you try more coffee places.

Speaking of coffee, does anyone know where I can find the cheapest coffee on campus? I'm trying to find affordable ways to fund my addiction.

but..but...

well, i like it anyway. those yellowshirts were just wrong. :p (unless they are serving me coffee that is somehow brimming with pathogens or something)

i prefer it from there because a) it's closest to most of my lectures, b) it's served at a temperature that can be consumed straight away. which i like because...(see below)

...coffee bought from the quad (lower level anyway) literally burnt my tongue once. :( pretty painful actually. much too hot. if i buy it from there, i have to stir it for ages.

i find that the coffee is the best in that the coffee beans they use there...seem to have a greater aroma compared to the rest of campus.

I am the only person from my year that went UNSW, everybody else did some sort of business degree at UWS.

However now there are 2 people from the former year 11's (when i was in Year12) That go there. :)

practically everyone who decided to go to uni from my high school goes to UOW because of the extra uai points from (dare i say) living in the shire and they feel more "comfortable" there haha

UNSW.
Fairly resourceful.
I procure many things on site.
Food and Drink.
Printing.
Science and Engineering equipment.

However in this capitalist civilian world I cannot aquire everything without breaking the law.

Plus recruiting comrades one way or another, operating in UNSW alone isn't much fun all of the time.

Other comrades from my school that went to UNSW studies Commerce or Science.
I am the only engineering student of UNSW to come from my school.
I appreciate a return salute from my physics and probably maths teacher when I pay them a visit.
I proudly embrace UNSW Engineering.

no way!

i was one of only two people from my grade to come to unsw (well, to kensington campus anyway...i think one or two went to cofa), and I didn't get $4000!

(got, uh, one of the highest uai's in my grade, too, if I do say so myself...not the highest, but pretty close...)

:( the injustice! lol

Your school needs to nominate you for it.

Then if you have UNSW as your first preference and get accepted, you get the 4k.

lol
you had to apply for it
just fill out a form with your name and stuff
every high school in NSW is entitled to it
at my school the "smart" people were offered it first
but none of them wanted to go to unsw
and then my year advisor (somehow) found out i was going to unsw and offered it to me
i didnt really know what it was about at the time, but i said ok
and got the 4k two days ago lol
