    Anyone do martial arts?

    I do wing chun, it's very practical streetwise, and you don't have to have the biggest build to make it all work. The IWCA (international wing chun academy) has a great range of instructors for wing chun in australia if you're interested (they're based in sydney, the gold coast and adelaide)...

    How do you pick out the First Year Students

    Agree with both. I remember first year i would bring the physics textbook to lectures for the first 2 weeks...By second semester i was just happy to bring a lecture pad or something to write on. By 2nd year i just brought a pen and scabbed paper off someone with a pad, and by the end of 2nd year...

    What's your job and how much you earn?

    That's a really good rate for weekend work mate. The pharmacy that i work at has a higher base/weekday rate ($17.50 per hour now and i'm 20...which is okay, since i only work weekdays anyway), but weekends/public holidays you get paid pretty much the same rate, so i don't really fancy the sunday...

We even had similar assignments (make a website with some dynamic features...

    Juno

    Good flick. Not sure it deserves all the nominations it's getting but it's definitely worth the watch. Is it just me or did the time-frame of that movie seem a bit ambiguous (one one hand you have pretty modern studio equipment of (LCD monitors etc) that guy Jason Bateman played, but...

    Chemical or Software Engineering?

    If you're looking at Software Engineering at Sydney Uni, be prepared to do quite a bit of maths (especially discrete maths later on) and a bit of electrical engineering. In fact, until 2008, software eng at sydney uni was pretty much the same course as Electrical/Telecommunications and...
