I bid three twos

Offers out yesterday, and I managed to get my first choice offer. I accepted it right away. It's a Bachelor of Applied Science at USyd, in Medical Radiation Science, studying for Diagnostic Radiography. The x-rays, MRIs and CAT and stuff. Medicine-related, without actually doing medicine itself per se.

It was pain trying to log in though. 60-something thousand anxious students hammering both servers of UAC trying to find out what offers they had got. It took me half an hour to finally get in. Now I have to enrol on Tuesday 23rd at the Cumberland campus. Today was spent trying to understand the terminology of university and getting the paperwork done for my tax file number. I kinda wish that I got my number at school; it was so much easier. The crap thing about applying to the tax office is that it takes 28 days to get a tax file number. I have to make do with a certificate of application.

On the way back from the tax office, I stopped at ARC and grabbed a new Geforce 7600GT, replacing my old Radeon 9600 Pro. Hooray! For now I can run Splinter Cell Double Agent, when I get it. Ironically, I haven't been playing games so much. mainly studying about units of study and HECS-HELP. Which leads me to...

I don't know about everyone else, but the USyd handbook for health sciences (including my course) is crap. The online version is basically a copy of the paper version. I know that we have to choose units of study to fill out the semester or whatnot, but the handbook doesn't make it clear how credits worth of study units to choose, and what we can choose and what we can't. Obviously the weekends will be spent analysing the handbook in detail so come enrollment time, I can choose the right units.

Unfortunately, it seems that the majority of Seftonites are going UNSW in the city. Which kinda sucks since I'm relegated to the the Cumberland campus of the University of Sydney. Apparently, David Vuong and Nam are going there, but it'll be pretty lonely for Seftonites down there.

Ive been talking to people about the offers and it seems that a few are indecisive about what course to choose. Both courses (or more) are very good and they just can't decide. One of them asked me what course they should do, but hell if I'm supposed to know. I focused on my choices, I'm going to be an imaging technician, not a engineer or whatnot. But best of luck to the people still deciding. I'm sure you will make the right choice.

Well that's all. I'm making DVDs for my mum. She's loves watching 24 and missed the first season, so yeah.
