Writing is so FRICKEN fantastic. Most fun uni couse ever. For one, everyone who wants to do it tends to be interesting, so you will never be bored in class. But then the lecturers are so fun (especially Shady and Damian), and the work is good. but best of ALL is that there arent any exams...

I do the communications half of it. But yeh, first year is pretty good. the sociology course is a flying bitch though.

Depends on who you get. Mainly they ask about what you read, how you went at hgih school, what you want to get out of the course. My interview was with Hawkie, and we talked for ages about what the theory course is like. It was kind of fun. Whatever you do, don't stress. They can smell fear...

I'm in politics at 1 30 on wednesday. dropped out of phil 106 because Im a lazy lazy. Which Poli tute are you in?

I read somewhere that Stanley left out the last chapter because -either the english or the american version (I cant remember which one Stanley read) - finished as the movie did. It's all a little hazy, its been a while since I looked it up. But I thought the actuall last chapter, where Alex...

I somehow managed to convince myself that it is much more important to watch Black Books than study. Luckily I only have one exam and an essay due. Still sucks though...

I'm tempted to drop out of the Communications course, if only to avoid doing this essay.

hey Jo, love that poem... I'm a creative writing student too, so posting some stuff online would be awesome. I'm mainly prose though, so this is probably not the best place. Most of mine is 2000 minimum.

I'm reading it now actually, about up to chapter 4. What did you think? is it worth finishing?

I can't make it tonight, my brother is having a birthday dinner thing... Oh well, see you at the unibar during the week.

I really liked it. May have been a little heavy on the sex, but hey, it worked. And as a piece of trivia, did you know the author went to Mount Keira High? Can't remember her name, but she did a talk at the Wollongong Library last year.

I... can't remember her name. Eviva? She marks all right, gave me a high credit for my last assignment.

sure! is that in the Communications degree? Are you first or second year?

Basically, the main character (who narrates it) isn't born until chapter 7. Then there are huge digressions concerning the passing of narrative time, hobby horses and the influence of classic texts. And lastly there are black pages, marble pages, diagrams illustrating the plot, foreords in...

I have to admit that I am a fan. So tragic. It's something to with trashy pop and nostalgic tendencies. (please don't hate me...)

Just wondering if anyone knows of a book more screwed up than 'The Life and Oppions of Tristram Shandy' By Sterne. I had to read it for Uni, and hope to god that it's the worst out there.

Thanks Mannix :) Can't wait till Ben Lee!

I like Ed wood's real name; Edward D. Wood Junior. God, parents can be cruel.

Bugger, I forgot to play! Must have been sidetracked by beer/chips...

I'm a little worried too. C S Lewis is not something to mess with. And these Hollywood book adaptions usually suck balls, ie Cold Mountain. Though 'Series of unfortuante events' kicked the books butt. Anyone know who is producing the Lion the witch and the wardrobe?
