― di, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

do you guys have a clocktower near your place?

― Geoff, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

You are an evil man, Geoff. ;-)

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

In many ways they never really went away.

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

More bloody students

― electric sound of jim, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Oh shut up and put some clothes on.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

i have my first lecture of the year in less than an hour. commiserations please.

― di, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Given. Just go in there and ensure the lecturer knows you will take no shit. That will cow them into submission.

― Ned Raggett, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I have an essay to hand in in 12.5 hours, it's a final final final deadline or I fail the module. It's now half midnight and I've written exactly 10 words. Help me.

"Outline and contrast the production techniques used for film and electronic television". Gulp.

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

graham dude what are you doing here then?

― di, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Although, on reflection, doing an exam in September (if I fail the module) seems preferable to writing a silly impossible essay now. And I've probably failed already. Or is this exactly the wrong attitude?

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Di: Procrasturbating.

("here" = filthy sweaty 24 hour computer "suite" with psychopath weirdos playing online pool who look like they never leave)

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

They're still here! I'm off to ~~get myself killed~~ walk home. Wish me luck.

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

good luck. i have unavoidable timetable clashes. what kind of people expect you to go to 4 lectures a week for one 300level paper anyway?

― di, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

The students look like Irish Pop Stars to me. Fuckin A?

― ducklingmonster, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm still alive! I've still only got 10 words!

― Graham, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

yay!

― rainy, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

do you guys have a clocktower near your place?

uh, this area had a big tragic shootout, lone gunperson, about ten years ago

― elizabeth anne marjorie, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

if it was only one guy - shooting, rather than shootout, surely.

― electric sound of jim, Thursday, 21 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

it was in aramoana, i.e. not even dunedin. & nothing to do with students.

― duane, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

And Rainy's still alive, yay!

I've been given another fucking extension. I CANNOT DO THIS essay. Please just let me rest in peace and do the fucking exam.

― Graham, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

erm, "electronic television" as opposed to what other kind?

― mark s, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

TV shot on film?

― Graham, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

so it's about the distinction between what has to done (and what can be done) with video cameras versus spooled film? (since the television dimension is not strictly relevant)?

― mark s, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Spot on. It's about the technologies/processes (filming, editing, transmission ect) for each, and convergence (eg New Star Wars shot on digital video). But I have no idea about film (=what most of the essay is meant to be about) and there are no books in the library because no course teaches it (mine included), and Google fails me. Plus I'm rubbish at essays.

― Graham, Friday, 22 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I HAF DONE IT ROARRRRRRRGH. 1800 fucking words, and I bet I get zero marks, sigh.

* slump *

― Graham, Wednesday, 27 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

Nonsense, Petal! You'll get an A+. Now go and have a sandwich.

― rainy, Wednesday, 27 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

fuckit this was suppose to be a ANTI STUDENT thread!

― duane, Thursday, 28 February 2002 01:00 (twenty-three years ago)

I wish, Rainy. And I wish you were my teacher. Then we could have lesson of poetry and music and some laughs^*. I have had many sandwiches since you posted.

^* I am sticking to my Lent promise and thus need to vent with this quote to keep me sane.
