I heard a first-year on the train this morning complaining about referencing. "You have to full like, do the page numbers and stuff, it's so gay". Suck it up, petal.
lol. I always hated doing it too, but never said anything about it. Probably because i never learned how to do it in highschool and because i always fucking follow the style guides of the of course, yet they always manage to find something wrong with it.

the prepaid line doesnt take long though: all they do is show id, get their text and leave
no not at all yet some people seem to be surprised to see there's a short line. of course the ultra-noobs just go inside and cut left into the long line queue service.

Jeez. That Richard White can babble.
Is he the history of travel/history of the cooee guy, or is that Richard Waterhouse? I always get them mixed up.

He is the lecturer for Australian Social History 1919-1998 (tho the course seems to have extended to 2008)

And the man can babble. Completely off topic most of the time. A part of me wants to pick the other Australian history topic.

This thread is biz-zay.

Anyway, that DBM tard was running late to our lecture. He had his reasons, but I was unimpressed either way. IHPF, is this usual? If so I'm vcross, aka :vcross:

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

Hey, does anyone know if I can drop a core unit and pretend I'll do it next year? I'm enrolled in B International Studies and one of my core units is ECOP1001, but I hate it so much and I know I'll fail it or something, and I also know that I will definitely be transferring degrees either through mid-year entry or next year, so I really don't want to do it at all (I'd rather do Anthropology which I want to major in when I transfer to BSc (Adv)/Arts). So can I drop ECOP1001 and pretend I'll do it next year and take up ANTH1001 even though ECOP1001 is one of my core subjects (do I have to do it in my first year?)?
