Sydney - yeeeah city girl. I don't really like it here though. Everyone thinks I'm crazy for going to Canberra but I think I'll prefer it.

Just had another read of the email they sent, and it says "The ANU community on this site will number 108." Does that mean that 108 is a number they use to sort of classify the residencies (Like how schools might have a Block A, Block B) or does it mean the number of people able to stay there is 108?

Edit: Also, what course are you doing?

I definitely prefer Melbourne to Sydney. I grew up in Melbourne, actually, left when I was 7. One of my cousins just finished year 12 at University High. Really, though, Canberra is Australia's 'smartest' city, it's definitely where I wanna be :p What course are you doing?

Claire, I'm doing a B.A in International Relations. Which is why I'm moving to Canberra... I mean where else would you go for that? Makes perfect sense. And hey, Kevin Rudd did a B.A in Asia-Pacific Studies and he's not doing too shabby is he? :D

Exactly. It's good to have a change/. I have been to Canberra many times and I seriously don't understand why people hate it. I like it.... I mean there is no beach but merh. I like it better than Sydney.

Still nothing? :( Maybe you could call. You could end up at Uni Gardens with us!
