Just thought i'd post this for fun...

Ian Thorpe will be a first year macqurie student next semester. He will be an on campus student as well.

I cant imagine being in his lectures or tutorials....

Yeah, i saw him today when i was helping out with enrolment as an International Student Buddy. I heard that he is studying Arts - Psychology and that hes missing out on the first 3 weeks of uni because he is going to Beijing. I wonder how he is going to manage to catch up on his studies.

Haha that's awesome - I've been working in E7B helping people enrol all week. Come say hi. :p

He was supposed to come by and chat about enrolment, but I think he got his form signed before anyone really saw him... Anyway, I hope he has fun and doesn't get bothered too much on campus. I think people will get used to seeing him around.

Can't comment on what he's studying, but I don't think Arts - Psych has midyear entry, due to first semester requirements. :)

Gah! The first year I don't do enrolment work and I miss out on seeing Ian Thorpe!

You're right about there not usually being mid-year intake for arts-psych (because psy104 is in first semester), but it does happen sometimes - where someone does psy105 first and then psy104 the year later (i know a girl that did that). And i'm sure the uni would be easy about letting him do that...

Lol he's not an interesting zoo animal. :p If he wasn't famous, you wouldn't give him a second look walking down the street. I hope that everyone doesn't harass him.. :-/

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think there was mid-year intake for it this year. At least, I haven't noticed it on the timetables - it could be there and I've forgotten.

I've never understood the celebrity obsession. Why do people care so much about someone they don't even know? Personally, I couldn't care less if some celebrity was in the same lecture/tutorial as me.

Haha, maybe Thorpy can explain it to me after he finishes his Psych degree.

The Thorpey snapshot contest.

Take your best snapshot of Thorpey any time you see him on the Maquarie campus and send them in to Spotthorpey@mq.edu.au

Extra points will be awarded to those who use excessive flash and/or outrageous angles. Photo will not be considered if Ian was aware the photograph was being taken.

The contest will span over the entire course of Ian Thorpe's studies here at Macquarie University.
I don't believe it...

celebs are above the law. He'll do what ever he goddamn wants and you can't do anything about it.

Anyone else spamming his student email right now?
... Why would you go out of your way to make someone else's life worse for no apparent reason? Does it make you feel bigger? :-/

Admittedly, I find some kind of sick satisfaction in other people's misery.
