Accomodation (3 Viewers)

[White Rabbit]

got my log in details!! woo hoo, LOL. Now I can finally apply for accommodation.. also, enrolment in Tuts, do we do that when we start classes, or do we enrol now? And where do we enrol, if we enrol now? Cheers!

 

[crazybrad]

fro - we can move in on friday or sunday see residences website for returning students

 

[Fro]

cool ill check that out
about tutes - you'll get told about that when you start classes - the 20th because it differs for every course and subject

 

[Kimmi_R]

hey, im gong to bathurst aswell, checked out the campus and accomodation the other day. the rooms in towers are so tiny!! how can you fit everything you need into those rooms?

 

[T1ger1i11y]

i had a look at the accomodation as well and asked myself that question but even though the rooms are tiny all you basically need is clothes and neccesities, a tv, computer (laptops are easier) and a mini fridge- only if you want.. and a bed and desk are there and all your meals in towers you get so you dont need that much room for food--dont know what other people think but thats what i thought

i got my log in details today - have applied for my accomodation

AND mum and dad surprised me today by buying me a "reward" present - my own laptop!!!!

boy am i happy!

 

[White Rabbit]

LOL doug, you're bloody lucky!!

Hey, whats MTG like? I was 100% on Diggins, but lately, I've been considering MTG.. what is it like? Someone mentioned they had pets there too, that true?

cheers

 

[Fro]

What!? Pets in MTG?.... no...
There's alsways dogs walking around campus - maybe they claimed that as their pet...
MTG is not too bad - but living with someone all year... can get a bit strenuous.... you'd think
They are also a tight nit bunch - like they all go out together and stick together all the time -not a bad thing... being off campus sort of isolates them...
As its off campus it kinda sux if you dont have a car...
Single rooms are really hard to get too...
Pretty much the only thing going for MTG is Dannielle Ryan - my old RA! Shes tops!

 

[Gobbie_7]

Is that Danielle Ryan doing Policing? If so she comes from my town. I know her too and she is tops.

 

[bex]

he he remember that old sticker slogan- cops are tops!?

and yes the towers rooms are tiny at first glance but you can and do fit everything you need. there is storage space under the bed too.. . i dont mind the small space whereas someone a little more claustrophobic might. in my towers room last year i had:
a bar fridge (which i used also used as a bedside table(not so attractive but handy for keeping your water cold!)
tv
a fan
laptop computer
printer
stereo
alarm clock
washing basket
mini ironing board
iron
wok
rice cooker
sandwhich press
hairdryer
straightener
clothes
towels (1 beach 1 bath)
cd rack
phone charger
toiletries
textbooks
stationary

so it can be done...you just need to be organised!

 

[Fro]

well fancy that! shes known state wide for her topsness!
ahh good ol cowra aye...
Its amazing what you can fit in youre room!
You always seem to find room - its when you have to move out when you have problems...

 

[bex]

that is so true.. i can easily fill a 4wd with the amount of stuff i have

 

[Krangelus]

you have too much stuff

 

[bex]

ut the thing is i use all of it... variety is the spice of life

 

[Gobbie_7]

I got my first preference at Bathurst... Traditional Diggings. I am so exicted about moving in.

 

[dougthelegend]

[White Rabbit]

Got MTG, my second pref. Diggins was my first, oh well
