Without counting books I was forced to read for school I would have to say The Redemption of Althalus by David Eddings. For those who prefer more light-hearted fantasy it would likely be a reasonable read but it was plagued by so many convenient coincedences, far-fetched events and inadept...

This opinion's likely to sound like a broken record by now but i try to keep myself unbiased to such things as race. I'm caucasian myself and my one gf so far was asian (ignoring the fact that it only lasted 3 weeks), as is my current crush :o

I've always been much more of a fantasy fan than a sci-fi fan, but my number 1 favourite series is actually a crossover of genres: Otherland by Tad Williams, a fantastic mix of sci-fi, fantasy and historical themes. As for Dune though, I personally found it way too dull and political for my...

I just yesterday finished book 2 of the Farseer trilogy and it is most definitly one of the finest pieces of literacy i've come across. The first person narration not only makes it unique but is pulled of in such a brilliant way that the reader is so immersed in the story you barely notice. Even...

I was there, though i left early. There were also 4 others from my tute though so i already knew some people:), plus i met several others in their 2nd and 3rd year and even people who dont even study German:rolleyes:

Probably. But when is it again?

This also has a desription and links: http://www.usydunion.com/clubsocs/directory/?pageID=21&showDate=False Though i think a couple aren't listed.

Pretty self-explanatory topic. It will interesting to hear the record for most clubs joined though:rolleyes: I myself joined 6, mostly more obscure and Nerdy ones though: - Tolkien society (Free Lembas!!;)) - Sutekh (Free Wizz Fizz!) - Gaius Gracchus (Free Rubber Thunderbolt of DOOM!!!) -...

Now that we have our timetables and know which tutorial groups we're in is anyone else in Group 1 for German Beginners (GRMN1111) Also whos joined the German Kultur Klub so far. I have.

Urgh, Mines horrible so far, and all of my attempts to change it have been insuccesful 8.00 starts 4 days a week, 5 lectures/tutorials in a row on Tuesday and 3 on Thursday.

Well considering there are mentors looking at this thread perhaps i shouldnt incriminate myself ;) But then again, i had to log in to actually see the questions so they probably already know anyone who saw them :uhoh: And i havnt heard from my mentor either :(

I checked out the Arts Workshop page on WebCT earlier and they had the questions for the scavenger hunt listed. Now they have mysteriously dissapeared again. Maybe i wasnt supposed to see them ;)

Are we supposed to get some sort of Official acceptance? Because its only 4 days away now and i havnt heard anything since i sent my application a couple of weeks ago. I recieved an acceptance for the Arts Transition day but whats the deal with the Science one?

Well i'm doing a double degree so im going to both the Science and the Arts transition days. As my main subject i put down geology/Geosciences.

Me too!! I'm not sure what to think of how they treat it as a kindergarten excursion though, "remember to bring your sammies" :o

The only person i know you going to USYD is my personal nemisis from High School. At least he's not doing the same degree as me; )

Well i'm actually going to major in Archaeology and just take a couple of history subjects to support that. And a language isnt compulsory but it was recommended that i do at least one language, either modern or ancient. For modern languages, apparently French and German are the best and maybe...

The band is Blind Guardian, they're a German power metal band. They do sing in English but they sometimes talk in German at their shows. As for Ancient History, i'm actually focusing more on Archaeology. I will be doing the Greece unit, but i find Romam history quite boring so i wont be doing...
