no its not, its traditional

Also its great for leaving behind secret comments about teachers. This one time I was thumbing through the contents page of my math textbook and some writing said turn to page XX to see Mr Mitch. I turned to that page and saw a picture of galileo looked remarkably like my then math teacher.

I made Galileo look like Elton John just by giving him thick-framed spectacles in my Maths in Focus textbook.

Thanks for the advice guys^^

One more question, how many hours per week would you say you spend studying? In the welcome lecture we had, the guy said we should be studying at 2 hours per UoC... Is that right?

At least in science, 2 hours/UoC is totally overkill imo.

yeah but i really don't like people walking around me and stuff when i be sleeping.

Those sleeping capsule things in Japan would be soo cool at uni.

its quite a good idea to have sleeping capsules. but that will mean maintenance and all those sort of stuff, which will surely bring in a fee.

on the other hand scientists have shown that a 20 to 30 minutes nap during the day speeds up the brain thinking process, which will be useful for students.

People can rent out a sleeping capsule for a fee, the alarm clock will go off when your time is up.

In Land of the Rising Sun, 3000 yen is charged to you ... for a night, that's about $40 AUD. So UNSW could charge $5 an hour, it would be more than adequate to cover maintanence, initial set up costs and whatnot.

eh..
