    So how long does it take you to get to uni and back?

    I have to take a bus to get to and from Macq U, a one-way trip is around 40-50 mins for me it isn't all that much of a long trip as much as it sounds, mabye cause I've been catching buses for the past 6 yrs, every day I'd have to make the 1.5-2 hr trip to school and back, so I got used to it...

    Exercise books or notebooks?

    Hey just wondering what we're supposed to write on for uni lectures. I'm assuming no one uses plain old exercise books (they remind me too much of my school days) so ppl will generally be using cardboard covered notebooks or lecture pads right?

    Very important query concerning uni courses

    the figures for me case aren't too bad, for law its 60% and for social science its 69%, and seeing as I'm doing Social Science/Law...first thing is to actually summon up the courage and talk to them lol, without trying to seem predatory or desperate. That's something that always weighs heavily...

    what are easy, guilt free ways to become friends with girls at Uni?

    I'm sure alot of guys out there, me included, would give anything to have the self-confidence you have when it comes to approaching ppl of the opposite sex and befriending them. We can't all live up to the virile, aussie male ideal, picking up girls left, right and centre and having been through...

    Chinese parenting compared to Western

    Well if you look at Korea and Japan, both nations have been thoroughly Westernised (mostly due to American influence in the Asia Pacific region) and have reaped the benefits of having a Western, Capitalist, Open Market Economy. China is now experimenting with both having a Free Market Economy...

    Chinese parenting compared to Western

    yes I concede it must be true that authoritarian regimes such as the Chinese Communist Party imposed draconian laws and instituted cruel punishments for simply objecting to the extraordinarily harsh measure imposed by the state. But it isn't a feature endemic to Asian societies. It's been the...

    Chinese parenting compared to Western

    Chinese parenting compared to Western

    I'm 100% asian, with both of my parents from mainland China and both grew up during the ultra-conservative era of the 1960'-1980's. They were both brought up by overly strict parents and they didn't have happy childhoods but it seems like the trend hasn't passed down the family and for that I...
