As far as UK citizen/passport holder thing goes, Ive been researching this myself and am in the process of applying as my dad is from Belfast. From what I can tell, the fact that your parent was born there means that you are already a citizen.. or national, one of the two lol. The passport just...

The concept that younger workers are lazy and stupid is a sterotype that really frustrates me. At every job I have had so far, it has actually been the older workers who have put less effort in and taken longer to grasp new concepts. Take my current job for example. I am a uni student, and work...

We have our internet, phone, foxtel and mobile on a bundle plan. But for some reason bigpond can never seem to understand this and keep sending us seperate internet bills, even though we always pay the bundled bill on time. They keep saying we owe them money even though we have the proof we've...

First day there, just bring a big jumper or coat, a beanie, gloves and some thermals. Then buy a winter coat and boots there. I only wore my thermals the first day there, and it was around minus 20. After that, once you're wearing the winter clothes you bought there, you wont even notice the...

I was in Ottawa on exchange and in my opinion its the best place in the world, the people are amazing and its so pretty. But I always advise friends who go over there to just go for a day or so, theres not that much going on. I had the time of my life there and made so many friends so i love...

people who quote tv shows that are are at least a year old and think they are being funny.

I'd never say anything, I just show them and leave and just generally dont go back. Its just annoying when Im at Target or wherever and they check me whilst letting other people walk through without saying anything to them. Seriously, if I'm going to steal something, it would be from somewhere...

i only get offended when they let two older people walk out in front of me and dont say anything but then they check me. Im a 21 year old female, hardly a risk but i always feel as if im being targeted when Im checked and someone 10+ years older is just let past with a friendly smile

NAB Visa debit (Gold). Not sure about Europe but I used it all over North America last year and had no troubles. I could use atms or just pay credit and it only cost me $10 a month but i think that's waived if you deposit a certain amount a month, but yeah no withdrawal or exchange fees or...

I also have no problem with Adelaide, especially as my best friend lives there, but I did find it funny a few weeks ago when she came to visit and was shocked that we were able to go 80ks in reletively built up areas. I thought it was strange, but ignored it, but then the next day I picked up...

lol you guys know we can usually tell right? Obviously, being a football fan means the whole "I'm a footballer" thing doesnt work on me, but Ive had guys tell me theyre in bands and stuff and i usually go along with it for a laugh, but its generally pretty obvious. In Canada I had a few guys try...

Its for our second degree, International Relations. I dont know about straight law, but i would hope you get some electives, because all law subjects the whole time would be terrible!

haha i was on exchange there last year and on my birthday we were in a kareoke bar and my friend dedicated a song to me and then proceeded to sing the American nation to me. Funny thing is, half the crowed booed him, but the other half were cheering him on and laughing. I found from my...

Sorry Deeman, i never saw your original post but congrats on getting in. Content is really theoretical and hardly any.. reality...? like no current events talk or anything like i thought there would be. Im not really enjoying it to be honest, but thats just me. I loved the electives, like...

I agree except with the part about couples having to be married. Maybe as a female i see it differently. But say im in a stable relationship, say4-5 years, maybe plans to get married, both good stable careers, own a housed together, whatever. Accidents happen and i get pregnant. I chose to keep...

So you just put everyone else on the road at risk instead? good job :rolleyes:

no, take it from a girl, lynx is disgusting. Actually thats a lie, when I was about 13 i thought it was pretty hot, i went to an all girls school and for some reason all the girls used to spray it in the corriders and yeah those adds could maybe have been true. But then i grew up and pretty much...

I was on exchange and had a lot of friends from South America and Mexico. When they got together they obvioulsy liked to speak spanish to each other as a break. I only found it rude, when it was I was the only non spanish speaker around, because it just completely excludes you from the...

Yes but this has been happening for years, way before the debit cards came out. Also, you can tell the difference between say a visa debit (i have one myself) and an actual credit card. My point is, if you havent earned enough that week, then you shouldnt be using money that isnt really yours on...

yep. well i can understand savings and cheque because sometimes u can get caught out, but after working in fast food, the amount of people who pay on credit amazes me. Honestly if you cant afford that junk with money you actually have, then you dont need it.

You see, I know everyone makes these generalisations, but I just honestly have not come across it as the norm. I come from an average middle class family and have friends that are both richer and poorer then me and we all have pretty much the same experience. We've all worked from pretty much as...

ok, for the whole, oh em gee dale thomas is so hawt!!!! stop dating 12 year olds and it wont be an issue. also, im so sick of everyone blaming everything on "generation y" and how were the worst generation ever. yes we can be lazy selfish etc, but thats not because there is something wrong with...

lol no there wouldn't. If they lied and said they were fresh and salt free then maybe yes, but no one forced you to eat them, you have to take responsibility for your own actions.

na i work weekdays as well but it was just to illustrate my point that weekend work is out there. Most of the guys that were hired at the same time as me have 4/5 days of uni and only work weekends or 1-2 weeknights The bosses prefer it as it gives them more availbility at times when were busy...

Law is only about 4 hours per subject but IR is pretty high, one of my subjects is 6 hours straight! But yeah there are plenty of jobs that can be done on weekends without impacting your social life/sleep. I work sat 8-5 and sun 12-6.30 at officeworks. There is also the option of weekdays...

Law/international relations, so I do have a lot of extra work to do outside contact hours which are pretty high this semester. I know some degrees dont have time, but anyone who's saying that they have odd hours, like 9-11 then 4-5 or whatever, shouldnt be using that as excuse, theres still...

I get if you can afford not to work, then why not, I mean your young etc. But for everyone saying you cant do it because of crazy uni hours - ummmm weeknights and weekends? I have one day a week off between uni and work and it sucks, but whatever, i need money to get by. (Before you say...

Im a full time uni student but i also work five days a weeks so Im definitly not the type you described, and yeah they do annoy me a fair bit. But to be fair, contact hours dont usually equal the amount of work required, majority of my work is done at home, readings/essays etc. But it still...

wow as if fox sports cut the coverage like that. That is an absolute joke!!

Anyone else notice that bigfooty becomes so much more active and interesting around exam times?
