the vibe (1 Viewer)

on wed, they were at penrith bbq....today at parra i saw a bbq but no one there...

 

[LaraB]

other unis do have paper like the western onion so seriously...,, everyone saying its a "uws thing" just adds to the negative rep that the same people bitch about...

yeah sociallist alliance party are screwy...but lumping the greens in that category is stupid... just coz they oppose the gov doesnt mean they're idiots...

personally, yeah the new paper's probly gonna be good but i'd rather see my money spent on useful stuff like replacing all the books people nicked from the library and stuff like that... and so much money and paper could be saved by makin it an internet thing rather than a printed paper...same goes for western onion...espec since around campus you see so many papers and pamphlets given out by the uni and uwsconnect and all the societes just floating around or chucked in the bin..

short of that, a milkshake machine in the cafe or bar would be good lol Jen can back me up on that one

Magazine eh.. It better be interesting and colourful.

 

[klh]

books are the responsibility of the uni not unions/assoc/wateva. it is on the net, but not too many people are bothered with it so they want to penetrate the market through this communication channel and distribution. (hehe cramming for marketing and thats what oyu get)
yes and pool and ping pong tables..yes i know, ive repeated myself too many times, but we need them!!! where are they??? CAnt ask Jonathan_A since he is a bankstown person...
milkshakes...like what 60's type? i need to try the ice cream some day...and the lounges in the bar are a nice added feature. good call too.

 

[Cape]

yes and pool and ping pong table.

Someone is a tad little obsessed

Whats with the milkshake machines? Theres one at Hawkesbury - but the bitchy cafeteria ladies have to make milkshakes ... I wanna make my own milkshake and dump a whole lot of chocolate in it

 

[klh]

actually, why did they open a retail shop when they could invest in milkshake machinery/pool/ping pong and get the majority to actually use/buy it. the retail shop so far is pretty much shooing flies when i cross it. no one is in there either so if you wanted something you had to wait.

obsession? how dare you! you can liken it as much as you to F1!!!
fyi, i havent played ping pong for 1 yr and its eating away.

 

[Cape]

Buy yourself a table, put it against a wall, get a ball and a bat, and play ping pong against yourself

I don't have an obsession with F1 - its an interest

Retail shop? Cokes are like 20c cheaper there than at the cafeteria! lol. But they build things for the majority of students, and I don't think that a ping pong table is going to accommodate the needs of the majority, unforuntely.

 

[klh]

fine....
but i mean if they spent the money for the retail shop in thigns that help students or benefit students instead of a shop that is rarely shopped at.
e.g. services such as more subsidised food or better food. i bought an OJ at penrith for 1.44 and at parra its like 2.25, v. big difference for the same thing, and i have reason to believe that teh parra one was overdue too...
also maybe a gym at parra migth be a go, dont know if it really needs it with such a small campus.

the table id like to buy costs too much and id rather play with someone for the fun and competition.

 

[Cape]

Well, I guess everyone can't be satisified. thats just asking for a little too much

maybe cause parra is so small, is the reason that they don't have ping pong tables. Hawkesbury has one, but I dunno if it still has the equipment. Wouldn't be surprised if someone actually stole it.

A competition against a wall could be fun

[Jonathan A]

I had a uwsconnect meeting today and spoke to the person who is organising the "Vibe" magazine. It will be different from the Onion, it's apolitical and will have info on student events, vouchers, deals and the like.

 

[klh]

Ohhhh cool! vouchers!!!!

 

[Cape]

I swear reading what Jon wrote, he wrote volcanoes instead of vouchers, lol

Is the "vibe" going to go out to all campuses? Cause I think Hawkesbury misses out on a lot of stuff. I want free vouchers!!!!!!!!!

 

[klh]

not much use if you Hawkesburians cant use them at the shops...does h'bury have the uwsconnect shops?
and what type of vouchers? not those parra eels ones?

 

[Cape]

Yes, we have one of those shops

Discount on train tickets

 

[klh]

yes, i second that, discounts on train tickets.

I didn't write volcanoes.lol To the bets of my knowledge it should be on all campuses.

Don't worry ... I think that I'm loosing it

Thats good to know its going to be across all campuses
