    Mid-degree deferral

    yea i wanna :) just gotta work out some glitches... i think they mean things that happen which you can't really avoid, such as: *not being able to afford it (even with FeeHelp and scholarship) [saying this would be a half-truth, i could afford it (thnx to my parents) but it would be a...

    Uni Vs Private Colleges for Graphic Design

    go for a private college smaller classes, and you get FeeHelp! i'm at a college that also offers degrees in business, education, theology, nursing, science, etc. (my degree's under the 'arts' banner) so its not a specialised graphics institution like KvB... but that means you get more...

    Martial art

    lol, i did hap-ki-do for two whole sessions, it was fun and it made me fit and flexible, but i was sort-of unco, and also was afraid of getting kicked in the face by accident! Plus the meditation part at the end weirded me out, so i gave it up pretty quickly :s

    marketing @ TAFE

    since you mentioned distance as being an issue, you could try doing advertising via OTEN..?? that's what i'm doing... i live about 10-12hrs (by car) from the nearest place that advertising is offered... but it only goes up to cert IV level for distance, you'd have to go to sydney to get dip/adv...

    Why do an honours course. Also postgraduate masters course. Benefits?

    yeah i may do an honours year in viscomm at newcastle uni, or maybe a postgrad cert/dip in multimedia... that's the back-up plan if i haven't found a job in the graphic design industry by the start of 2007... most people who do an honours year do it because it fills in time and improves their...

    I dont know nothing about uni

    so true! DeathlessOne: whenever you get around to it, try uni. What have you got to lose? (apart from time and money) - you might really like it. Or, even if you don't like it, you're not bound to it. You can drop out anytime! So ya might as well give it a shot... ;)

    Who hates right-wing (religious) conservatives?

    somewhat surprisingly, i agree with most of what asqy has said in this thread. well said chap :) IMHO, what Hillsong church is *trying* to do is good, but they're going about it the wrong way... promoting a shallow interpretation of biblical teaching... in hopes of 'selling' it to the masses...

    dumb things you've done on L's

    lol that was a crack-up! :D i guess it's good to make mistakes if you learn from them, and become a better driver because of them... my driving instructor (that i've recently had a couple of lessons with) seems rather nit-picky and overly-cautious... it makes me nervous! (which i'm usually...

    dumb things you've done on L's

    While you were learning to drive, did you have any major cringe-worthy moments that had your parent or supervisor yelling at you or having a heart attack? :D Or if you are currently learning to drive, spill the latest stack-up, close-call or embarassing situation! in a few weeks i'm going...
