besides tht,we hv tutorials tht u need to prepare early before hand so tht u wont look like a fool in the class..i bet my frens wouldnt be able to imagine me preparing for a class tht i'm heading for the next day..hahz xD but yes!!! i do prepare for all my tutorial class before i go...coz......its accountable for 10-15% of ure total mark in the finals!!! and the great thing is.... i hv 3 tutorials on wednesday itself!!! imagine if i was too lazy for a paricular week and i hv to get everything ready on tues nite..wow!!! tht's gonna kill u man.,..i've tried preparing until 1.30 in the morning and i'm still not finish wit it!!! AUSTRALIAN LEGAL SYSTEM wei...thts the killin part! the tutor would actually come to each student and check their preparation..if u don prepare..'CHENG CHENG CHENG'... URE DOOM!

soooo...if u guys are still complainin bak home by college and all..u shud feel lucky coz if u don do ure assignments and all,ure participation mark dont count!!ohyeah....and one fussy thing tht i'm not used to it here is for every essay or presentation tht u write/do, u MUST referance and u must do it in a particular way..if u FORGOT or u din noe, u'll be accused wit plagiarism!!!! and ure gonna meet the school dean den..happie for u!! haiz..soi'm actually quite stucked up wit learning to referance and stuff..there even hv a photostat quota here!!! only 10%/ 1 chapter onli..lol unlike in malaysia, nobody gives a care of whether u photostated the whole book or u buy the photostated version..lol

alrite...moving away from studies......i don wanna be labelled as a nerd lar..hahahahahahahah

culture here is great and its very open..i mean ure free to do anything u wan and ure held accountable for ureself onli..nobody actually cares bout wat u do..lol but becoz of this open-ness as well,u'll tend to see alot of interesting stuff..lik wat i've told u guys in the last post, there's this 'club' in the uni for people to get drunk and stuff..from time to time they organise party and stuff..laz party was a themed party..beach party..so imagine evreyone in their finest beach wear,comin to uni to PARTAAAAAAAY!!!!! lol..

a heart warming story..let us all hv a big heart to make this world a better place^^

In Phoenix, Arizona ,a 26-year-old mother stared down
at her 6 year old son, who was dying of terminal leukemia.
Although her heart was filled with sadness,she also had a strong feeling of determination.Like any parent, she wanted her son to grow up & fulfill all his dreams. Now that was no longer possible..The leukemia would see to that. But she still wanted her son's dream to come true.She took her son' s hand and asked,'Billy, did you ever think about what you wantedto be once you grew up?Did you ever dream and wish what you woulddo with your life?'Mommy, 'I always wanted to be a fireman when I grew up.'Mom smiled back and said, 'Let's see if we canmake your wish come true.'Later that day she went to her local fireDepartment in Phoenix, Arizona , where she met Fireman Bob, who had a heart as big as Phoenix She explained her son's final wish and asked if it might be possible to give her 6 year-old son a ride around the block on a fire engineFireman Bob said, 'Look, we can do better than that. If you'll have your son ready at seven o'clock Wednesday morning, we'll make him an honorary Fireman for the whole day.He can come down to the fire station, eat with us,go out on all the fire calls, the whole nine yards! And if you'll give us his sizes, we'll get a real fire uniform for him, with a real fire hat - not a toy -- one-with the emblem of the Phoenix Fire Department on it, a yellow slicker like we wear and rubber boots.''They're all manufactured right here in Phoenix ,so we can get them fast.'
Three days later Fireman Bob picked up Billy,dressed him in his uniform and escorted him from his hospital bed t o the waiting hook and ladder truck.Billy got to sit on the back of the truck and help steer it back to the fire station.He was in heaven.There were three fire calls in Phoenix that dayand Billy got to go out on all three calls.He rode in the different fire engines,the Paramedic's' van,and even the fire chief's car.He was also video taped for the local news program.Having his dream come true,with all the love and attention that was lavished upon him, so deeply touched Billy, that he lived three months longer than any doctor thought possible.One night all of his vital signs began to drop dramatically and the head nurse, who believed in the hospice concept - that no one should die alone, began to call the family members to the hospital.Then she remembered the day Billy had spent as a Fireman, so she called the Fire Chief and asked if it would be possible to send a fireman in uniform to the hospital to be with Billy as he made his transition.The chief replied, 'We can do better than that.We'll be there in five minutes.. Will you please do me a favor?When you hear the sirens screaming and see thelights flashing, will you announce over the PA system that there is not a fire?''It's the department coming to see one of its finest members one more time. And willyou open the window to his room?'About five minutes later ahook and ladder truck arrived at the hospital and extended its ladder up to Billy's third floor open window--------16 fire-fighters climbed up the ladder into Billy's roomWith his mother's permission, they hugged him and held him and told him how much they LOVED him.
With His dying breath,Billy looked up at the fire chief and said,'Chief, am I really a fireman now?''Billy, you are, andThe Head Chief, Jesus, is holding your hand,' the chief said with those words, Billy smiled and said,'I know, He'sBeen holding my hand all day, and The angels have been Singing..'He closed his eyes one last time.
