You could download some more snuff videos from the internet, seeing as that seems to be your thing.

Four hours is way too long to sit around doing nothing. I'd go home.

I also have a four hour break between lectures on a tuesday cause all the tute times were taken on that day for my subjects. Should have done the time tableling earlier.

Go and hang out in Bondi or the city if you live too far away from home.

I got a 3 hour break on thursday. I'll probably just visit my friend at one of the residential colleges, have lunch and mess around with friends (both old and new) to kill the time.

Just a side question, how would one get to Bondi Station from UNSW?
Catch any 400 or 410 bus from the stop closest to NIDA.

If you don't want to trek down to Anzac Pde, just walk out onto High St and catch the 400 or 410 from the stop across from the uni.

SAME :santa:

Study is a very good option, and it helps. I didn't have any breaks in semester two, and it was a little too much to deal with in a lot of ways. But yeah, you'll certainly find other stuff to do, and you won't be spending all your time studying.
