Omg that story...I wasted a whole train trip reading it, lol...TimTam.

Good luck for the grammar test IHPF

Merci beaucoup, CR!

EDIT: I have never seen IHPF though. I stare down small Asian females all the time, but still no luck!
Makes me think you're non-existent.

Maybe you have laid eyes on me many times but have never known it? ^_^

How dare you alter my quote?!

No, I doubt it. Mebbe you just occupy different parts of the uni and whatever. Only place you'd have a chance of finding me is along Science Ave, around the Quad, the library, Eastern Avenue and Wentworth.

I'll prolly be in your senior philosophy classes though so watch out LOL!

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

Has anyone else noticed that surprisingly few science disciplines are located on science avenue?

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

oh my yes.

You have a clone sitting for you in Moral Psychology.

EDIT: But seriously how do you know you haven't locked eyes with me? Would you feel some IHPF vibe emanate from me if you did?

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

kill them plz

I do go by the buildings you mentioned. I hang around the Camperdown part more than the Darlington part of campus. The only time I have to go there is for Political Economy. So farrrr away...

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

Phil of Mind is DBM and is good because he's also my tutor. All next semesters Phil looks pretty shitty

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

is he an awesome tutor? i would think, based only what i see in lectures, that he'd kinda hog discussion a bit.

my guy's sam baron, and he's pretty cool.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

might do Introductory Logic next semester.

Im answering, "If you had everything that you wanted, would you thereby be happy?"

Its a pretty interesting course. Caroline West is a v.v. excellent lecturer - she makes everything seem clear and fun and interesting. I'd definitely recommend it

Bolded the ones I like the sound of. Practical Ethics maybe? We like a lot of the same ones.

I'm doing Moral Psych and Phil. and Psychoanalysis this year. Next year I wanna do the Law one, the one and of course the Mind one, cos I want to sex DBM's mind.

Phil of Mind is DBM and is good because he's also my tutor. All next semesters Phil looks pretty shitty

I am SO jealous!

Yeah I've had Caroline for the first few lectures of Moral Psych. Definitely sounds like something I wanna do. Good luck with writing your essay!

EDIT: Luke Russell is also a fantastic lecturer.

I always wanted to have a go at philosophy. I probably will never try it though

Nah not at all. oi Iheartpaulfrank, you know in the lectures there's that one chick who always ask questions? She's in my tute, and she's the one who hogs discussion. Ruby knows of my pure hatred for her
