bonzaboy Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 (edited) bloody macs! *hates vista and windows with a frigging passion* *wouldn't mind a mac right now* I'd like nothing more than a mac right now, but the fact of the matter is that I'm povo...lol Someone has posted little snippets of the songs on Mika's new album on youtube If they were 30 second snippets of each song, then that's the previews that were available to listen when you pre order the album on iTunes. =] *Edit*- I checked it out, they are the iTunes samples. The funniest thing is, that the guy who uploaded them is claiming that he got them from the record company/Mika himself. Some people will do anything for attention...lol In other news, I put in the first part of my uni application today. =D Now I just have to fill out the questionnaire. I'm gonna take my time with that though, since my answers should probably be somewhat thought through, rather than something along the lines of "I decided to apply for this course because computers are shiny, and I like shiny things..." It does occasionally take some time for me to articulate what I'm trying to say, so I can see more than a few drafts before I get anywhere near a final copy...

Don't worry, Tegan, they're just the iTunes promo clips. They're exactly the same as the ones I recorded from that, and in the exact same order. I reckon this guy is just talking himself up by saying he got them from the record company. =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nico_collard Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Seems so... and you beat me to making a comment... I actually didn't know where they came from... I got a condescending comment from some guy on a video of Adam playing bass cause I referred to it as a batman guitar... Larry called it a batman guitar, and I think it looks like it... Besides, I can listen to Adam long enough to know what kind of bass guitar it is... Sorry... Anyways, FY & GN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a lot of work... for ours we just had to list 10 courses in order of preference, and then, depending on our ENTER score, we'd get put into the highest course on our list that we were eligible for. At least I think thats how it worked, it was so long ago. It was easy I remember, as was applying for scholarships Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was easy I remember, as was applying for scholarships It wasn't that bad applying for the course online, and for most courses is as easy as you described, but some highly sought after courses have an interview process, such as medicine and the like, and this one, being a scholarship has a questionnaire. I feel for those who have to write an essay for their application, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, OP is the big one at the moment. Our school doesn't calculate prediction OPs, so I have no idea how I'm gonna go with this. The course is in NSW, so they've specified I need a UAI of around 90. Which is about an OP 6 or 7. I'm hoping I do well enough on the questionairre to be invited for an interview. Apparently there's only about 25 places in the course. Better get to work!

sweet-dreams Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I just got back from seeing David Helfgott (the pianist the film Shine, starring Geoffery Rush, was made about). He was incredible! He's a little bit crazy, because of traumatic life and mental illness, so throughout the two-hour recital of some amazing pieces he mumbled and hummed to himself the whole time! It was so endearing! I was sitting in the front row, a couple of seats right to the centre, which was perfect because I could see his hand movements really clearly. After the final song (Flight of the Bumblebee!) my mum started the standing ovation, and absolutely everyone in the concert hall was standing, clapping and cheering. It was amazing. And then I got to shake his hand! In other great news, my mum's friend from France is in town. And we were talking to her about music before the show started and I mentioned that Queen are my favourite band. Then she said that she saw them in the 80s and snuck in a camera and took a few photos of Freddie (she said she was in about the third row from the front). And she's going to send them to me!
