    Wollongong Suburbs

    Old thread but meh. It's called Fairy Ghetto for a reason. It's okay if you live on Campus East, I guess. It's not as bad as Bellambi though, which you should avoid at all costs. Gwynneville and West Wollongong (though a little far from the traino at times) are ideal.. rent is decent if...

    Unicrew

    Are there any prerequisites to join the promotions team? I have a friend who needs experience to get a job. And they give references. Even though it's voluntary work, she's still keen. Can first years do it? Is it shithouse and i should steer her away? At least you get a free t-shirt?

    who deleted my thread? left handed

    thats what i do.. cept i just rest my book in my lap. only problem is that if you're sitting next to a righty you might get the occasional elbow bumping. the desks in the communications building are good, they're alot wider and semi-accomodate for lefties. we should start a society...

    Thanks Raiks, it was very relevant :) How long do you have to stay in a degree until they'll take your transfer request seriously? A semester? A year? Two years? I have a feeling that i got accepted into the wrong degree. Got into B Nursing, but would rather do anything psych related...

    Which subject is everyone pissed off about?

    FRENCH. My teacher didn't scale our internal marks, so I got my raw 75.. which barely makes sense considering I came first all year and averaged in the 80s-90s. The scaling would of made all the difference. It's too late to appeal it, isn't it :-( Oh god.. WHY!
