I must apologize (again) for being away so long. I'm in the last few weeks of classes and I need to study and not fail (else I lose my $13k/year scholarship, which may happen anyway). But I'll try to be back for the next two weeks. Once summer rolls around I should be back fulltime, though.

Get the hell out of here if it's a $13,000p/a scholarship!
Wait, that's aussie money right?

In any event - scholarships first, mad hobbies later.

US, I should think. That beats my 6000/year AU scholarship ...
(course, you don't have Commonwealth Supported Places in the US, do you?)

Sorry, no, we don't. I'm afraid we aren't part of the Commonwealth. At least, not since we had that little spat with His Majesty's redcoats back in the 1700"s.

Why apologise to me? I'm the one who gets the government paying 3/4 of my uni fees just because I'm a citizen ...

You bastard...now I hate you...
But really I don't, because this year I got a free ride anyway. They other $13k/year of my tuition is grants I can't lose except by winning the lottery...
HURRAY FOR DREXEL!

Um ... you realise that EVERY Australian citizen gets that ... (at least for the first 7 years of uni study unless you do a really long degree)

Yes, but I'm better because I get lots of money not because I'm a citizen of the country I reside in!

Chaps,
Please ignore Jess and carry on here as before unless of course you wish to desist from carrying on your phallic envy rivalry over "scholarships".
