I've noticed a lack of general knowledge too. I hadn't thought about the fact that quite a few people haven't done any history since Year 8. And if you only studied the topics you learnt in school then you would still have a pretty narrow view of history. I think it really comes down to having...

Gilmore girls is a great show and the only one I bother to watch on saturday.

+Po1ntDeXt3r+, what kind of money do you earn at Myers, if you don't mind me asking? I am thinking of applying.

Thanks for replying. So in retail you get paid more than an office junior? I didn't know that. I think retail would probably be less responsiblity and stress. What kind of pay would you get at a place like DJ's or Myer if you're 19?

Well I just returned from India and Malaysia. I visited only briefly Kuala Lumpur, but then went on to New Delhi, Agra (the Taj Mahal) and then the Himalayas. I am desperate to travel again. I think that New Zealand, England and France are on the top of my list for the contrast to travelling in...

I really need to start looking for a job in my gap year. I have been travelling since February, but now I have to start earning some cash. My only real work experience is in my parents shop that sells antiques, jewellery and art. My top two choices are probably working as an office junior in...

As someone preparing for Uni next year at USYD, I was wondering if I could bother you all and ask how you are finding it, and also ask how some of your individual subjects are going? I am trying to decide on what subjects I want to do and have only narrowed it so far to ; philosophy...

So it would probably be a really long way to get into graduate law, but are you saying that it is possible to get in if you have a masters, Phd or first class honors? I didn't get a UAI above 90, so if I wanted to get into law that might be one of the only ways. Just wondering.

New Rulers of the World is a great book and really gives you factual insight into what is going on in the world. I also really enjoyed SWM and haven't yet read Dude where's my country? I think that Michael Moore doesn't really see himself as a person with the answers. I think his purpose is...

I loved Celery and peanut butter as a kid. I think it was the adults trick for making kids eat a vegetable.

Wow, I am so envious. How lucky you are! I really want to go to England and Spain. Have you done your gap year through a specific program? I am deferring too, since I knew I wouldn't be sure what subjects to take within my course, so I am going to have more time to decide now. I am going...

I love The Alchemist, it's one of my favourite books. And I think it's simplicity is what makes its message so poignant.

Are any of you studying pyschology? I am interested in the subject but I am more interested in Jungian psychology than freudian. And I've heard that at an undergraduate level you are taught more from the freudian perspective. Although I guess that too would be interesting.

I'm listening to it right now. And Tidal is my favourite album of hers.

Thanks for the advice. I'm glad the anthropology people are nice and I'll be sure to pay attention. Have you done anthropology? It seems like a really interesting subject. I was also interested in doing sociology, so I am glad that it's meant to be a good subject with good tutors. I also...

Oh the 90's, such memories. I still have my old 100% hits CD from 1995 or something. It's so funny remembering all those old songs. I can't believe that was nine years ago already.

"Good Enough" by Sarah McLachlan it's not the wind that cracked your shoulder and threw you to the ground who's there that makes you so afraid you're shaken to the bone and I don't understand you deserve so much more than this So don't tell me why he's never been good to you don't...

I love the Gilmore Girls. I just think it's an entertaining show and I like their humour. But there's a two week break till new episodes. Damn it, and I am going away.

I am getting back from overseas on the 29th March, so I am wondering when would be the best time to apply for a job. Do you think places like David Jones start recruiting in May or June for the Mid-year sales and Christmas? Anyway if anyone knows, thanks
