    First Day of Uni...

    Nah Emm I'm at Ourimbah. I'd probably come to the meet otherwise. Maybe (and I stress maybe) I'll talk to a random in one of my classes tomorrow. Because it's a dare and all. :P Ahaha I'll let you know whether I do or not.

    First Day of Uni...

    I'm pretty socially retarded too. :P Way too shy to walk up to randoms. Haha.

    First Day of Uni...

    Hehe... before uni I didn't have Facebook or anything either. I don't remember it happening, but somehow I found myself with a Facebook account. Now all of my friends have Facebook. It's good for keeping in touch with those I don't see a lot. It really is taking over the world. But I hate most...

    First Day of Uni...

    Do you have Facebook or anything? I go on that on my breaks... but it's true more often than not nobody is on. But still for the most part I'd rather find random stuff on the internet than be completely bored wandering around for too long. Though I admit the internet gets really boring too. ><

    First Day of Uni...

    Ah nice. I'm more like 40 minutes away, and I'm seriously doubting whether I'll end up getting my Ps or not. Haha. I have until June. That would suck having to get up so early for it. I suppose you can kill time in the IT block. That's where I spend most (all) of my breaks. :/

    First Day of Uni...

    That sounds like what I do too. :( I just can't read something without imagining someone actually saying it. Makes it take so much longer. Oh well. Do you catch the train to uni or drive? I've got to get up at 6am on Tuesdays to catch the train. :/

    First Day of Uni...

    Hmm I don't think we'll actually end up using the grammar one much in the course, so you're probably right. I had a similar textbook for another course last year, and we never actually used it... that was for Foundations of Teaching. Not sure which course you'll be doing instead of that one. I...

    First Day of Uni...

    The only good thing about her taking attendance is that it'll almost guarantee I'll go to my lectures which are straight after, which otherwise I may have occasionally slept through. :) I've got that book too and I think it's for the same course. Nice to know I've got 38 pages of needless...

    First Day of Uni...

    Yeah I can't sleep that early, so typically whenever I turn up to that 8am lecture I'll be running on 0-3 hours sleep. Woot. I was so mad when the lecturer said she'd be taking attendance.:mad: With the readings it will greatly depend on the course. Personally I only read things if they helped...

    First Day of Uni...

    Man that sucks. Having to get up so early just for a one-hour lecture. If I could give you half of my day, I would. :) I do wonder if I'll end up getting my readings done. I didn't really do a whole lot of them last year.:uhoh:

    First Day of Uni...

    Well my Tuesdays are pretty long. Every second(ish) week I'm going to be there from 8am-7pm. And Mondays I'm there from 2-6pm. I have quite a long break every second(ish) Tuesday too. :(

    First Day of Uni...

    That reminds me, I forgot all about my weekly readings. Darn. I have some reading to do. Ourimbah is awesome. Don't know if we'd ever all be there on the same day for a meet-up though. I'm only there Mondays and Tuesdays.

    First Day of Uni...

    Haha. Me too don't worry. I was surprised enough to see people posting from the Ourimbah campus let alone anyone in the same courses.

    First Day of Uni...

    Okay thanks, so not too different from the lecture today then other than the socialising. Us second years who transferred into the course have a different enrolment grid to all of the first years because of the different courses we've already done, and on it EDUC1738 is listed for this...

    First Day of Uni...

    Did that happen to be for EDUC1738? If so anything interesting happen in it? I'm in the 3-5pm tute and my tutor didn't show up. At least not for half an hour at which point everybody left. This is my second year, but if you haven't guessed by now my first day sucked. =] I was supposed to...

    Tutorial Seconday Only

    If all of the primary spots are full you might need to email them to see if they can squeeze you in one of the "full" ones. I have heard of this happening before. I think this is the course in place of EDST1010 Foundations of Teaching in the old program, which I did last year, in which the...

    Tutorial Seconday Only

    If that's the course I think it is, it's probably for students entering secondary teaching, as opposed to primary or early childhood.

    ATAR Question

    ATAR = The new UAI. I'm not sure on any of this but I think universities use it for three years and if you do another course they will look at your results rather than ATAR/UAI. But really not sure.

    Never Gonna Get A Job. HELP!

    All you can do is keep trying, and apply everywhere you can. Even if you think it'll be a sucky job, at least it will give you some experience and money. I'm 19 and only just recently got my first job, which I got through Seek by the way. It only lasts 5-6 weeks but I figure it's better than...

    Conflicting times

    ^Exactly It's more of a help session if you're having trouble I think is what we were told, and I don't think it ran every week anyway.
