oops, got a plagarism warning today. Couple of my paragraphs were copy pasted and i forgot to remove it before submission. >_>

luckily they just gave me zero for that part of my report (which was only worth 1 of 10 anyway).


They should move the strike to Thursday, then i might get a mid-sem exam moved.
Copy pasted from where? How did they know? Was it an electronic copy?

It was an online submission on Trac (waf should know this, it's for the comp project). You write up a report in a wiki sort of editor (kinda like a blog, but moreso) and they check it.

Well one paragraph was from wikipedia. I was meaning to delete it before the deadline since i didn't need it anymore, i guess i forgot to do so. The other one was just some stats i copied off a university site's paper. Didn't quote it properly or something, so that's my bad.

My tutor found out because i left a statistic in my second paragraph that referred to the other university (e.g. over 100,000 students at the University of Blah use this system). He copy pasted a sentence into google and found it. Did the same for the previous paragraph (which was worse since it's not stats or anything).

it was part of a group report as well, so it's good that we all didn't get penalised too harshly (like i said before, that section was only worth 1 or maybe 1.5/10 max).

Will have finished writing final chapter of my thesis tonight - and then edit it over the next two days.

And then I have to go back and edit everything again, and then I will be done!

Dear USyd bosers,
I've got a terrible group member who doesn't do any work. Someone please kill her for me. I'll pay you in cookies and love. She's not even an international. Or pretty! If she was pretty, I could put up with it. /shallow.

Also, why is this place dead?

Love the only pokemon master on campus,
jayadore.
