Hey all! Yeah, I'm so up for it! Stress-induced English is what I'm truly best at ;) Well, my only issue is that I'm doing both extension 1s at the moment (eng, maths), so next year, will 13 units be simply too much? Then again, ee2 is only the body of work (I say *only* but you know what I...

Re: What UAI/course are you aiming for? Hah, good luck for your exams!! And THANK YOU for saying this! I get pretty annoyed when people do the courses purely 'cos they can'. I mean fair enough, 99.9999... but if you're not interested in it then you just won't survive! Saying this, I...

Hey everyone! :D For me, it's~ 3u English 3u Maths French Continuers Japanese Continuers Economics That's 12 units, but I'm thinking of taking up Extension 2 English.. ... So I'm wondering if 13 units is too much to take into year 12? Then again, 4u English is just the major work (not *just*...

lol hey again.. well you did say "any more questions".. :rolleyes: ... everyday, we don't have to dress in suits and all that, right? I mean, smart-casual is alright? Or very casual..? They didn't really indicate that type of thing and I don't want to turn up with a case full of...

hah, oh wow haiderr, thanks so much - that absolutely covered everything! it sounds so fun.. I'm not too fussed about facilities; beds, showers/toilets, food (but I really appreciate the extra info- prepare myself!!) .. but I guess I'm just a little intimidated by the whole world of UBS and...

Well sorry to dig this thread up, but I was wondering if any of us are going to next month's UBS finance academy 2008...? Only 'cos I am, and would like to stresss about it with someone.. perhaps. Hmm... what to pack .. Thanks! :)

Movies.. well, (no generalisation necessary) *anything* that Christian Bale gets his hands on, you just know is going to be absolutely amazing. Recently saw 3:10 to Yuma and Rescue Dawn ..fantastic. But also loved The Prestige and older films of his, like American Psycho, The Machinist...

Now don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore the books (and I'll be the first to defend it), but as for the films.. well, they're like a "nice accompaniment" to the story... I'll watch them, but certainly not for a few feeks (cbf 10yos "omg daniel radcliffe is SOOO sexy in this one!!"), and I'll...

LOL, yes. All this epic movie date movie shit, ripoffs of some already questionable movies doesn't sit right with me in the cinema at all. I've never had to actually walk out of a movie, I tend to avoid paying in the first place. Well, unless I'm dragged by a date who's laughing at the jokes...

Orlando! Oooh I love that movie. Tilda rocks bigtime. okay my turn. ________________________________________________ (btw this one is not to be taken seriously) "Mess with the best... Die like the rest. .. HACK THE PLANNNETTT!!!" haha lol away :D

I saw the trailer after Lost one night = Matthew Fox's lame-o attempt at promoting a sub-par cat & mouse, "before time runs out," thriller-type film (am I right? I mean, this is what I gathered from the trailer, feel free to correct me) I dunno, I just think Matthew Fox fails as an actor. In...

... yeah well what were we expecting from Abrams? Lost plays up the whole answer-an-unsolvable-plot-point-with-another thing almost *too* well. The concept was brilliance. Not sure if it followed through 100% though. To the sequel, I'd be interested to see how they'd approach that. Perhaps...
