The further I am removed from my days at Uni, the more I realise how crazy our funny world is...
Uni's end.....hopefully

Very cynical
That was the reason I went, and then I realised that job satisfaction is more important than money, so my major in accounting was pretty damn pointless. Oh well.
I'm in my last semester of an Arts/Communications degree, but I'm most likely going back for an Honours year. It could be the worst thing I could do, but it also might be of real benefit. Hmmmm.

yeah I was just 18 when I started uni.
My honours year has been alright, but it's been a real nightmare for other people.... Partly because of shit supervisors who don't really understand what an Honours project should be, and partly because of the shit structure of Honours by the school of biol science at UNSW..... I mean you can always tell a shit supervisor that they're a moron, but it does mean you're not gonna get help from them, which is problematic when you're doing research you've never been involved with before.
I basically did it to leave my options open for later on... I have no idea what an honours year would be like in Arts/Comm though. All I can say is pick your supervisor well...

I hear ya. That's why my Honours year (1997) was hell on earth, and why it took me so long to go back for another bite of the cherry.

My mrs' just finished for the year - I'm so damn proud of her (she just finished her second year of a 3 year course). She doesn't want me to brag to anyone, but her lecturer and the head of the photography department said that she had taken the best photos that they had ever seen a 2nd year photography student do 
she also had to sign a contract to allow the school to use her photos for advertising purposes
Her class's exhibition is tonight, so if anyone in Adelaide wants to pop down for free booze and nibblies, it's at Uni SA's arts building, 6th floor from 6pm onwards. Bit late notice, but still!
