Who's going? I'm going to the Sydney one tomorrow. Anyone here been to one? Is it worth spending the day there, or is a lot of it just a waste of time? I should get in to the course of choice, so I really only need to go to that one lecture thing...I was planning to sit in on more just to...

lol-yeah, I think you could pretty easily. You'd have to make it so that it looked like the real references from your school (in case someone else handed one in and they saw the differene), but other than that, I'd say you'd be safe to make up whatever you like! Even if they checked up on you at...

omg i LOVE the osbournes! Except jack...he shits me. But I love the others! I feel sorry for Ozzy though.:( I don't know about Christina Aguilera fighting Kelly at a party, but I know Kelly spat on Christinas car. :D And I heard Natalie Imbruglia and Kelly had some big fight...

Oraganising notes-Get a ring binder for each subject. Then just divide it up using those cardboard divider things into each different module or chapter within that subject, and just put in all the sheets as you go. And put a section at the front with all past exam papers in it so you can quickly...

I'd never watched it before, but I saw it last night. Damn good, but very addictive! Too bad it's almost over...ah well. I was so laughing when that Flo girl was bawling her eyes out in the back of the taxi cos her partner refused to cut in line.:p What an idiot...and then she told Gerard and...

The Simpsons. I'm at the point where if the Simpsons isn't on, my whole day feels all out of whack... Other faves- The Osbournes Seinfeld The Secret Life Of Us Red Dwarf South Park Neighbours (lol) Rove

My parents didn't help or support me during the HSC, but I don't think it made much difference. It all comes down to you-you can't rely on other people to come to your rescue or cheer you on. Yeah, it's annoying, but come on, it could be worse.

omg I can't believe all these people that don't like rove!:eek: He is a huge smartarse, which is usually a bad thing....but the difference is that he knows he's a smartarse, and he plays it up on purpose...thats what makes him come off funny, to me. And I like that he can laugh at himself...

study at night. Its always way more effective than the daytime, I found...

My UAC number was just my student number with a 1 in front of it. I don't know if thats always the way they do it, but give that a go! I don't even remember where I got my UAC number from in the first place...

We had to fill out a sheet of achievements or activities from school...but I did not have one single thing to write on mine! Never repersented the school in sport, never debated, never went to a mock trial, wasn't a peer support leader, never been in a school play...nothing! But my reference was...

Because whats the point? UAI=University Admission Index...thats it. You need it to get into UNI, and anything else about it is irrelevent. If you get a UAI high enough to get into medicine, then that's a huge achievement, and that's what it's all about. Studying til you drop and driving yourself...

What were everyones school references like? Anyone get anything negative written about them?;) Did everything that was said actually sound like you, or just some random kind words?

Also, if you're aiming for 100 when you really don't need to...can I just say that that is a complete waste of time. Our UAIs came out like 10 days ago, and already no one could give two shits about what anyone else got. The point of a UAI is to get into your course of choice...nothing more...

I got 86...I thought I'd do a little bit better, but I didn't do as well as I'd hoped in the exam, cos it was my last and I realllly couldn't be fucked by then. But I was happy with that mark, I guess.

I thought the Hombake lineup was better...and that was cheaper, and at a better venue. Theres a few bands I'd have loved to see at BDO, but it's pretty expensive...:(

Doing 7-8 hours is probably a complete waste of your holidays...I don't know how well you can motivate yourself to do schoolwork, but for me-I could only study for hours on end when the pressure was really on. Your 1/2 yearlys won't be for many weeks, so at the moment, I doubt you'll be feeling...

Lisa Wilkins (I think thats her name...?) who is always on Beauty and the Beast. The one who always get up on her high horse about what a great mother she is.:rolleyes: She gives me the shits so badly...and she's on the show practically every day. No wonder it's getting axed!;)

I've actually only heard 'Honestly' so far, so i don't have much of an opinion on them. But I liked that song-it's cute and catchy, and you can hear the same Smashing Pumpkins vibe coming though. So I guess so far so good. But I doubt Zwan could ever live up to the Pumpkins.

Another good idea is flash cards. They were probably the thing that worked best for me...but of course, you can only use them for certain things. Like in biology-I was trying to learn all the names of the parts of the eye and ear and what they did, so I wrote the name of each part on one side...
