    why are cut offs decreasing?

    Why does it matter if the cut-off is higher or lower than UNSW? The course hasn't changed from back in 2006. You're still going to be learning the same content and going to the same campus, regardless of the fact that the uai dropped from 97 to 95. Just thank the fact that it dropped and...

    Why is it so hard to find a job?

    Dream employee: Person with no ambition in life or ability to move forwards and preferably no qualifications or education (so that they can be easily exploited) I guess we're over-qualified to flip burgers (a job that requires no skill whatsoever apart from hand-eye coordination). I...

    Is this a nice thing to do or just werid?

    Since she has such bare wall, just paint the tiger onto the wall itself. That way, she can't get rid off it cause she sounds super lazy - her stuff being everywhere and all - so she wont ever bother painting over it. And if she doesn't like it - remind her that its the thought that counts :D

    Why is it so hard to find a job?

    Where did you do work experience? Nail place or a hair dresser's I bet. The guy already said he handed out 50+ resumes, and most of them get binned anyway, as opposed to showing persistance. I s'pose you could keep giving them resumes to show how much you *really* want the job, but that would...

    Why is it so hard to find a job?

    Re: Why is it so hard to find a fucking job? Took me ages to find a job after I finished year 12. Okay, imagine that you walk into a supermarket and hand your resume into the manager. The manager is most likely to be some sad-ass in their 30's or 40's, still working on wages having...

    What's your job and how much you earn?

    How is $21ph not worth it at all? Considering that the other place I work pays me only $13ph and $19.50 on Sundays. I think $21 sounds quite good for ushering people around :p I'm starting this Saturday, and hoping the new uniforms aren't fuck ugly....

    MQ Student Election

    Dammit I recycled that lil piece of paper! Did that Asian guy even have any objectives/goals on there? Cause I remember a list of qualifications + '20 years experience' in something...which to me makes him more qualified to shanghai us :( Anyway, I'm planning to vote for the youngest, most...

    Wollongong college or SIBT,help needed ungently!

    SIBT is the alternative pathway to Macquarie University - You'll fit in with all the other international students. Not that I believe we need any more international students, but I see the need for them to be subsidising my education.

    Cool Part Time Jobs

    Nice, I'm across at ANZ, starting next week. Does Acer have a uniform? Lucky ANZ is disposing the beige pants :D But yes, pay sounds good and I don't really mind rugby. Although they don't allow girls anywhere even near the change room area :(

    Laptops for Uni

    Re: How helpful is a laptop at university? erm...bricks would be heaps helpful in shutting up those annoying people down the front that keep asking questions. Not to mention the helpfulness it would give in knocking out tutors that I get pissed off at - and for vandalising random windows...

    Best unis in Australia

    Amusing to note that Macquarie's rankings dropped heaps and about two days later, we got an internal email from none-other-than Judyth Sachs about why the ranking system sucks and we shouldn't listen to it etc., etc. I would post it up, but like everything else the VC sends, I've junked it.

    how to avoid falling asleep during lectures?

    Eating makes you sleepier...especially if its a particularly hot, sticky day. Also, denying yourself of sleep in lectures makes you want it more. Just drowse at the boring bits and wait till the person next to you pokes you awake for drooling on their shoulder - the humiliation should keep...

    ISYS 123 semester 1

    Apparently they've made it harder so that it doesn't look like a "Mickey Mouse" subject :S I wish I did it last sem... Anyway, what do you reckon the lecturer meant when he said "to get a HD you've got to know isys better even than me?" Personally, I think he comes across as a bit of a...
