Dear SOLS: fuckyoupleasegodiedon'teverdothattomeagain!kthxdie

So how'd everyone's day go?
Mine was brilliant. Except not.
SOLS sent me a message saying I had to go to the creative arts lecture theatre today at 10.30 so I did, only to find that MY course meeting thing wasn't until tomorrow.
So SOLS fucked up there and sent me the wrong message. I wonder if I got someone elses message and they got mine?

So then I went home, seeing as I had three and a half hours until my ACTUAL first lecture.

Haha but wait, there's more!
After writing that I had to go back to uni for a second lecture. I left in the pouring rain, got there saturated and waited for half an hour for the lecture. The lecture has been moved to Wednesday, apparently. The entire class was sitting there waiting for ages before we went and asked. They hadn't thought to TELL US or anything.
Haha, but despite that my second outing to uni of the day was more fun the first, we all just sat about talking and laughing.

How'd everyone else's first day of the semester go?

Glitter, you're doing Creative Writing? One of my mates is doing that and he got the same message.

My first day is actually technically tomorrow (wednesday) at 6:30pm. I went into uni yesterday anyways to get Missy Higgins tickets before the evil evil evil first years snapped them all up, like they snap up parking permits. And i've been going to uni for the last 2 weeks anyways starting honours stuff. Ahh well, real first day tomorrow! I should be around during the clubs day thingy, come check out ultimate frisbee, cos its ultimate fun!

My first day was pretty crap. Actually really crap.

So I'm trying to forget about it. Thus, from now on I will refer to my second day as my first day as it was much better.

Today was my first Graphic Design lecture and it was wayyyy better than the theory crap from yesterday. We talked course outlines etc etc and then went into the mac labs and learnt how to login etc etc. I think it was so great because I finally talked to people that I actually wanted to talk to. Not too many awkward silences after the usual questions are asked.

I too have met alot of people doing my degree that arent first years. It makes me feel all weak and small and stupid and ... ummmm ... yeh.

lol, lovin uni thus far tho. lovin the unibar the most.

Cheers, Jerome

Well my first day started with me turning up to my first lecture of the year an hour late. Not the best start although I did end up with yet another unibar shirt after trivia yesterday.

Picked up my tickets for Garden Party and MGF. Thursday night will be a big one this week.

It's a bit rich that she wants to charge $27.50 for the privilage. Bigger names have passed through the uni and not charged that much. But I guess she is the flavour of the month. I've got my free tickets to MGF after a productive afternoon at trivia. But I'm not paying that much for Missy. I remember she played at UOW for free when she was touring as part of the unearthed winners... how times have changed.

Ultimate Frisbee is awesome, why else would it be called ultimate?!

I got my missy higgins tickets on monday. I've heard that they've sold out since then, but this was off a friend, so...she could be wrong. $27.50 is a bit much, seeing as it is at uni, but meh, better than going to see stuff at Entertainment centre and paying $70 - $100 for tickets.
