stupid online mechanics questions, dodgy questions/diagrams are annoying, even more so when i lose 1/3 of a mark because i got the question wrong on first attempt because of some tiny thing in the diagram which is supposed to represent a break in the bridge

:rage:

ARTS2633 - i need more time to dedicate myself to the readings. I am dropping the course for this semester and plan to take it again next year. Too little time to dedicate to that subject (would prefer to focus on my subjects for the major)...............and plan to graduate in the second semester of 2010.

I hate uni a lot this week.

1. Drama teaching assignment question does not actually correlate at all with what we have been told to do. We're all just winging it - and then, as happened last semester, half of us are going to get a pretty average mark and our tutor will spin us the same incomprehensible crap he did at the start about what we are meant to do which DOES NOT MAKE LOGICAL SENSE, OMG YOU'RE A PROFESSIONAL, WRITE THE ASSIGNMENT PROPERLY, SAY WHAT YOU MEAN NOT WHAT IS IN YOUR INNER FANTASY WORLD

2. Too much work in general - a full semester load more or less squished into 7 weeks. FAIL

3. Travel takes forever and I'm not getting enough sleep because of this (5 hours a night on average...yeah do-able but not fun)

4. Related to the above, 9am lecture tomorrow. Yay. They take attendance in lectures so I pretty much have to go. It's the most boring subject EVER.

ok I think that's all. it's been therapeutic. whee

Too vague assignments. I have to create a project and do weekly updates on its progress. What can it be about? ANYTHING..

Lecturer wants us to write our essay in a system that suits them, completely different to what we're used to, and IMO ineffective. :(

theres no off switch for the aircon in the education building at usyd:angry:
Haha yeah same. It's pretty funny because my campus is supposed to be a "green" campus and so last year they wouldn't turn the aircon on, and now they just have it on 24/7. Bloody ridiculous.

1. You'd think so but you'd be wrong

2. We're all going on prac for 5 weeks in the second half of semester so they have to get everything done before then

3. Yes yes I will. ZzZzZz lol

4. The Education faculty at USyd is pretty cruisy until about 3rd year then they suddenly get anal about attendance and fail you if you attend less than 90% without documentation. People sign each other off and stuff of course but they more often than not don't put notes online either - so if you don't go, you miss out or have to rely on your mate's dodgy notes to catch up.
