    How much do you pay per week for your Fitness First Membership? [rip off]

    Mosman FF refuses to give free trials. A trial membership of $40 for 2 weeks is BS. I've been going there for ages now, but I wouldn't ever sign up again. I signed up when there was a deal of "No Joining Fee". Yet, there was an "Admin" fee of almost $100. My boyfriend wants to sign up to go...

    Food expenses

    I don't eat dairy due to: 1) The ways in which dairy cows are treated. 2) The veal industry depends solely on the dairy industry, so in my opinion supporting the dairy industry = supporting the veal industry. 3) A cow's milk is meant for it's calves, not for huan consumption. Just as human's...

    Food expenses

    Yes, although my mum doesn't bother buying any alternatives to meat/dairy/eggs etc or cooking for us. "Oh, sorry, this soup I made for dinner has meat in it. Have some raw beans" "I couldn't be bothered cooking dinner tonight, so I picked up a cooked chicken/quiche. Umm, aside from that, we...

    Back to School Checklist!

    OMG, I could NEVER ask my mum to do that. Everything would be totally wrong. When I ask her to buy a SPECIFIC brand of something, she gets the wrong one. I wouldn't be able to live with it!!!!!

    Food expenses

    I spend more than that and I live at home! Then again, half the time mum can't be fucked cooking for my boyfriend and I cos we're vegan. So we'll order pizza or something. Plus she doesn't buy ANYTHING aside from food for dinner. Literally. If I want to make a salad sandwich for lunch, I need to...

    New Jeans: Good/Bad

    Eh, jeans are jeans. But I don't really like them. Not really sure exactly what it is, the colour doesn't suit the...tightness or something.

    does ANYBODY enjoy their text for english?

    I loved Ros and Guil are Dead, Catch 22 and American Beauty, and quite enjoyed frontline.. So no, it's not strange. :)

    Doing Multiple Choice in Reading Time - Nails Allowed?

    I totally agree. Use your reading time wisely, rather than trying to save a total of 2 mins, which you will just use thinking about your extended response later anyway. Plus, there is a chance that you may get 0 for the exam. I'm not positive about that, but I really don't think it's worth the...

    Resume writing--what if two or more jobs have similar duties?

    4 PAGES?!?! Honestly... If someone handed me a 4 page resume I wouldn't even bother.

    Moving out post-hsc

    My boyfriend and I were planning to do that this year, while i'm on my gap year working full time. He's going to be doing year 11 during that time through distance and work too, so we should have heaps of money. I was scared that when I do start uni and he'll be doing year 12, things will get a...

    This Year's Fashion Has Been Really Shit, Why Doesn't Anyone Else Agree?

    Agreed. I bought some clothes earlier this year, black pencil skirt, mini, jeans, button-up shirts, trench coat... And a few country road tops, but that was it. Okay, well it seems like a lot now that I think about it, but that's not the point... It was all in, like, February. And I'm DYING for...

    I got 30 or below UAI.

    "sciences" meaning bio, chem and physics. I'm pretty sure senior science scales CRAP. I can imagine earth and envrio would be the same. Am I the only one annoyed by the fact that (from what I've seen) to get bonus points in a science-based course at uni, they only look at marks from chem...

    Standard or Advanced English???

    I recieved a high band 4 in english for the SC, and chose adv english. I am SO thankful for it. At one point I was thinking of changing to standard, but I carried on, and did okay in it. My final hsc mark for adv english was 78, which I was pretty happy with, as I put barely any work in...

    I got 30 or below UAI.

    TBH, I'd love to study law. Was hoping to get into an arts or socio-legal studies (84.75) at USYD (as 99.55 was out of the question). Might apply later on as a mature age student. The only degree I could get into which I would be remotely interested is a B Science at UWS. Maybe then transfer to...
