    Breakfast?

    Macca's drive through, all the way. Failing that, chocolate milk (from SAM shop) is fast becoming my "alternate breakfast"... $2.50 and actually stops you feeling hungry. That, or ham and cheese toasted sandwiches ($3.20 from SAM grill before 11am). Maybe it's time to start thinking about...

    Half-yearlies

    Darling, no-one will ever tell you exactly what you need to know for the test :p That would give you something of an unfair advantage, oui? Just read over your texts to get general gist and a good grip of main topics/concepts, then make sure you have quotes/evidence to support those :) Make...

    Does anyone else sleep in their car?

    Come sleep next to MY car! Then we can be car-sleeping buddies! :D I park in either C1 or C3. Whichever one is closest to W2.

    First year meant to be the hardest?

    Again, you gotta love what you do ;) Otherwise life REALLY sucks.

    First year meant to be the hardest?

    This is the time when everyone has to think seriously about how much they WANT to do their particular degree... technically if you want a particular hard-core degree badly enough (eg law, pharmacy) then you will be motivated enough to put in all the hours. Being smart is not always good...

    Am I the only demotivated wreck here?

    Yup. :) I'm sure you've discovered that like many of us, creative inspiration comes in waves - it can take a while to start but when it happens, it's like a steamtrain that just steamrollers on! Unfortunately you need to learn to control yourself in order to do work for other subjects though :(...

    Problems finding Board Docs regarding E2

    Did you actually download the EE2 syllabus and check it over for any written-in updates? I've seen it done like that once before... Failing that, write a letter to them. No guarentees you'll get a response but if they're not putting the information on the website for HSC students to download...

    BBA250 - who here goes to the lectures?

    OMG I only just realised about half an hour ago as well that it was due soon. I then walked over to my mum and asked her how I could get in contact with her manager :p Yeah, so organised...

    BBA250 - who here goes to the lectures?

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking... But I still feel bad for skipping :( Of course it's never bad enough to make me give up my precious naptime ;)

    Does anyone else sleep in their car?

    Oohh, you have hit upon my special secret! :o I get so lonely when I'm unconscious. But now I'm too scared to say where I park!

    Does anyone else sleep in their car?

    Hey all, I have been napping in my car almost every single uni day from about 8am-noon for the past few weeks (long story involving skipping lectures, naughty me). Additionally, since I get to uni at such an ungodly hour I tend to park in the same place each day as well... I'm getting a little...

    BBA250 - who here goes to the lectures?

    I'd like to know whether anyone goes to the 9am lectures/whether it's worth me going (because otherwise I will just nap in my car, lol!).

    Assessment !!! PLEASE HELP !:):):)

    Calm down :) Break the question down. NB I'm feeling really braindead after uni so this is really an idiot's guide to answering the essay question, apologies to anyone who's wanting a more "academic" response Something I've learnt since my HSC is that taking the time to form your own theories...

    Going to formals solo

    Went with a good friend in Yr 10, had lots of fun and wouldn't have done it any other way. Went alone in Yr 12, had a total ball will fellow partner-less friends, and wouldn't have done it any other way. It's all about having a good time - NOT appearances. :)

    Attention Mentors/Mentor Leaders of 2006

    Awesomeness! ... can I only support the request not to have it earlier than 3pm (well, 2pm for me but whatever) on a saturday? I'm at dance in Newtown from 11-12, and it takes FOREVER to train it back to my car :S Oh yeah, and I heard there is a general mentor meetup/pizza thing, but this will...

    Mood

    When depressed or upset I find that I can write quite easily, however it tends to be the diary/journal/confessional type of writing. There can be some good bits, but as a long sustained piece it just doesn't cut it because it's too angsty. I probably do the bulk of my writing when I'm in a...

    Am I the only demotivated wreck here?

    I didn't have as big a word count but went through a very similar feeling when I had to write something for my ENGL218 (aka creative writing) class at uni. The problem with me is in the way I "see" my story. For some reason I tend to see my inspiration in a kind of internal movie format (even...

    is anyone else struggling???

    *salutes* Due to the "hey! LET'S THROW YOU INTO THE DEEP END OF THE POOL WITHOUT A FLOATIE!" nature of EE1 it's perfectly normal to feel "not with it" for quite a long time. I can rant on about this sort of thing for ages... the jump in standard between Yr 10 and HSC-level english (particularly...

    Am I the only demotivated wreck here?

    Think about how plot-based your story is. If you KNOW you need plot, set aside a few hours to plan it all out. Work on a priority "chain" basis - eg do project A before jumping to project B which uses A as a foundation, etc etc. In other words, PLAN your writing process. Think realistically...
