I remember that...

Thanks to doin YS, I always knew where everything was but whenever I'd see someone looking for directions, I'd avoid them because I didn't want to be a tour guide anymore...

Since were talking about uni newbies:
If my sister gets accepted into Maths Education at unsw (she's 0.7 points below), then she gets the teaching scholarship that pays for all her HECS and gives her $1500 a year (or a semester..) to pay for txtbooks and travel.
Oh, she also got the UNSW Academic Achievement Award, giving her $4000.

my sister > you

Just a lovely warning to all you overeager, enthusiastic first year students for 2009......

DONT FUCKING ALL COME AT THE SAME TIME TO EDDY AVENUE IN THE MORNING NEXT YEAR!

Do the right thing by scheduling your classes for later on in the day or better yet, skip your classes like you all probably did in Year 12!

I don't really ask for much....

Just a little peace and an occasional seat on the bus.... And maybe a lack of annoying little first years' conversations shitting on about the sudden difference in their lives...

I recall so clearly...my first lecture at UNSW was at 9am monday, matthews A, math 1a lecture. The place was so packed and so hot, there were people sitting on the stairs.

m'dear - i really think it more appropriate if you copy and pasted that section and posted it in one of those threads that the soon-to-be first years actually created?
And be less harsh, or they'll do exactly that to piss us off ;)

Hope your holidays are fairing well :)

Push to the front of them in the bus queue.

My favourite trick is to pretend to look at the time the next bus is coming and then just hang around the front of the 20-metre long queue until it does come. Guaranteed seat! The best part is that I'm a fairly solid chap, so I don't often get questioned about my seat-stealing tactics by other members of the queue.

Hey Helen!

Hols are good so far but are slowly becoming more and more boring 'sigh'...

Merry xmas btw!

Btw shred, I do the exact same things. Wait around at the bus stop and then push my way through... It's kinda easy being as I'm 6'4 and everyone else is a head shorter than me...

This should really be a thread on its own,
(Should be stickied too)

true.

I remember seeing some idiot casually wondering along walking past the 80 metre line and then suddenly jumped onto a bus

Lol dude that's screwed. The post-grad oldguys love shoving in the moment the bus door's open. Damn I miss the times when students shout at the transit officers "Get a real job you assholes"
