Title: So who here is actually at Summer School?
Description: Im curious

I was just wondering if the sudden influx of new members as well as the return of some dormant posters is due to summer school.
If you are currently at summer school, let us know.
And if you are, is pub quiz still running?

I really doubt it, there wouldn't be enough people to make it worthwhile.

I'm here at university, not doing summer school but rather working, both as AUSA welfare officer and my paid job at the University call centre. The one thing that always strikes me after summer school is the influx of newbies in First Semester, actually. Its such a shock when you're used to only seeing a smattering of people on campus during summer school...oh and actually getting a computer at Kate Edger.

I'm doing a summer scholarship on science in colonial New Zealand. It rocks. $500 a week plus expenses.

Hang on, you're paying 500 dollars or they are paying you 500 dollars?

once again love your work Dave
when I was picking up Hannah today I noticed some international students commenting "will you be at uni tomorrow?" so I guess international students do come here for summer school

The latter. Plus a $1000 allotment for expenses while I'm at it. :wohoo:

I'm not at summer school but i am here for some reason or another, sitting around in my office as usual, avoiding getting a full-time job, same old same old.
maniacnymph - January 11, 2006 05:48 AM (GMT)
Until this morning i was enrolled at summer school, but i quit, because it is sunny.
*and i didnt want to get out of bed.
Miss_Illusioned - January 11, 2006 06:43 AM (GMT)
Im at summer school and I am busy as fuck. I should be studying for my test next week and writing the essay dues next week.
maniacnymph - January 11, 2006 06:46 AM (GMT)
busy as fuck? wow, thats pretty busy :( good luck! Hope theres some time left for Lushing?? *MN is concerned*
Miss_Illusioned - January 11, 2006 07:09 AM (GMT)
Well I should be busy as fuck :P But I'm not at the moment. Busy Lush foruming and trademeing... I didn't quite understand how condensed summer school is. I mean I understood the time frame but until you experience it, it is a totally different thing. I went into Lush last Thursday and Yesterday... I need more income so I can spend more! I have a 2 hour break so always time for Lushing on Tuesdays and Wednesdays :)

I'm doing Summer School and I'm the smart arse (I did my tutorials exercises during the holidays so I just go muck around the city).
Samf, can I see you during Summer School?
Hannoir - January 11, 2006 07:11 AM (GMT)
Hitler, why are you doing summer school?
maniacnymph - January 11, 2006 07:14 AM (GMT)

I believe it's called Management 101. :hilarious: (Not that I'm actually doing that paper. Hehe.)

Old joke:
"Don't joke about the Holocaust man, my grandfather died at a concentration camp"
"Shit really? Fuck man I'm sorry"
"Yeah, he fell out of a tower and broke his neck"
Adolf Chiang - January 11, 2006 07:30 AM (GMT)
An improvement on the punchline:
"He was a guard and the inmates trampled him to death during a riot."
(Such things did happen.)
Miss_Illusioned - January 11, 2006 07:47 AM (GMT)
Umm not really an improvement but anyways....

If you'll find me anywhere, it'll be around the lower levels of the Library or in the History Department. Or up at Craccum talking to everyone's favourite anarcho-syndicalist on campus, Ryan Sproull.
Adolf Chiang - January 11, 2006 08:40 PM (GMT)
Just tell me where you will be at 2pm today...

If you don't want people to call you Hitler, you shouldn't have a username with "Adolf" in it. It's not like you have the excuse of it being your own name. Hitler.

| During the early 20th century, Adolf was a popular name for German Jews. After World War II many survivors who had been born with this name changed it and the popularity of the name decreased dramatically. |
If I choose to call myself Adolf, it doesn't mean that I need to be compared to Hitler.

I think it pretty much does.
why don't you answer this question,
If Adolf Hitler's first name was Fritz rather than Adolf, would you be calling yourself Fritz Chiang?
If the answer is anything close to a yes, then you do need to be compared to Hitler.

No, I would not call myself Fritz, if that's the case.Fritz doesn't have the same mystique or power as Adolf.

ah but it would if it were associated with the man

That paper was repeated in the second semester, which I managed to pass. This however has delayed my elective to summer school.
