Uni was fucked today - no internet.

 

[Carrotsticks]

Normally I stay back late at Uni to study at the Library, but no way without the net (YouTube + Online research)

Pocket WiFi saved me today.

Eugh, tried that today. Kept on switching on/off so in the end I just didn't bother.

In Carslaw at the moment and it's a bit dodge.

I also had problems with the internet today - just couldn't connect to the 'UniSydney' wifi. I just ended up using my phone's internet.

They sent an email earlier in the day saying there was maintenance occurring from 6pm tonight and the whole thing would go down again to fix whatever is still wrong with the system. Hopefully that will fix everything.

UniSydney not working here either =/. Hope they fix it soon!

This is probably a really silly question but it's my first semester at USyd and MQ had a different looking system. Where would I find lecture recordings in Blackboard? I know for certain my lecture yesterday was recorded but I can't find an Echo link.

Not sure if this affected you, but with the network problems yesterday, some lectures failed to record. This is the message on ELearning: "Scheduled Lecture Recordings (Echo360) and University Network Issues. Please note that lectures may have failed to be recorded on Monday 30 July and Tuesday 31 July due to University network issues. Sydney eLearning apologises for any inconvenience that this may be causing."

Well that's pretty fail. Don't think I'll be at uni for a few days with my foot

I know Usyd wifi is notorious for being useless etcetc but has anyone ever really been able to access it? :/
I'm in Fisher, on one of their computers and the ipad just won't connect to the wifi even though this is one of the areas with best wifi coverage. Helppppppp.

Also, final semester for me!

Worked from 8-10am yesterday, but then ~10 it went bat shit.

ditto.

I usually use my phone but the net on it wasn't working at Uni yesterday or the day before.

I got my email at 6:40pm. Lol

So you'll be here for 6 years then? Haha (Fuck, I'm the worst friend ever)

Coffee?

Went straight from splendour to uni, got to uni and could barely walk, went to my classes then emergency, 11 hours later I have a temporary plaster on my ankle and not allowed to walk for a week.

What an awesome way to start the semester.

Hit me up on FB with a time

Otherwise, I woke up this morning with an already bleeding nose, lip and lost my voice. My second day of uni, lovely!

Currently at my favourite study spot. Nothing better than just chilling with a mocha, and a couple of course books in front of you all ready to be read.

Migrated to Fisher now to study with work friends.

3rd day. Already fatigued, starving, and hating stuff.

Fml.

How many 8am starts have you had so far?

 

[Carrotsticks]

Really - with all maths? Nice =]. Are any of your lectures recorded?

My semester is absolutely insane. Ruthless subjects everywhere. Medsci had a 63 average and 10% fail rate last sem!
