Ahh I've heard about his show, but haven't really looked into it. All I know about it is that he goes around trying to fulfill his childhood dreams... Is this so?

Mhmmm, and it's pretty darn funny (and embarassing) at times lol.

in soviet russia, summer holidays chat about you

In Soviet Russia, FB groups join you.

Hopefully someone can answer this for me; would all courses per semester have around the same lecture/tute/lab times as the previous years?

 

[Omie Jay]

no

 

[MooshyMoosh]

no

Thanks, so do they change them according to enrolments from previous years, or just to the staff's liking?

 

[Omie Jay]

staff liking, room allocations for different subjects' lectures/tutes/labs, etc, im guessing.

 

[MooshyMoosh]

Damnit. I'm looking at last year's times for subjects I want to do, and two subjects clash so either I hope that this year they'll be at differet times, or I change my major.

 

[Omie Jay]

you can check semester 1 2010 class times in the UNSW Handbook

The doctor said I wouldn't have so many nosebleeds if I kept my finger out of there.



What do uni students usually do in the holidays?

 

[MooshyMoosh]

My sem 1 classes work, but I'm worried about semester 2. Hopefully the sem 2 classes work out this year, otherwise I'll have to wait for sem 2 next year to continue the arts bit of my degree. Damn prerequisites...

Btw Omie, I tried to rep you, but it says I must spread the rep first, even tho I don't recall repping you yet

Rock up to uni hung over and sleep deprived and attempt to culture cancer cells.
After Fridays effort (following a big Thursday night) I was so surprised to go in today and find my cells alive and uninfected.

Stupid cats got fleas, so I had to bath them today, they cut the shit out of me! Now I've got all these slices down my arm like some emo phag.

Oh man, you just had me look up my textbook prices. It's not pretty.

Ugh, me too. If I bought all my 'prescribed' textbooks new from the bookshop, I'd be saying goodbye to ~$400...and then I imagine there'll be course packs on top of that. Hope I don't actually have to buy them all. Or at least, not brand new.

This is why I have a casual job.

btw, Psych people - can anyone tell me in advance which of the following actually get used / I'll actually need?

PSYCHOLOGY + EBOOK 2EPRESCRIBED BURTON 047082025X 107.96

While it is possible to concentrate entirely on lecture notes, I recommend buying this because it contains most necessary information (and has summaries) and is an interesting read in its own right if you're interested in psychology. The e-book is great, I actually never used my printed copy because my laptop weighs less.

Mildly useful when preparing your report but not really needed for first year purposes.

Cyberpsych Multimedia CD-ROM Version 2 0PRESCRIBED Burton 0470816376 51.26

Completely unnecessary, I have never even loaded these discs.

 

[missanonymous7]

Excellent, thank you for that. I guess to access the e-book I'd have to purchase the textbook brand new, in order to get a code or something?
