TSFX

[costargh]

i spoke to droodles about it. he thought it was the worst thing ever.
quote from his msn nikname

"TSFX CONTEXT WAS DOG SHIT"

[jsimmo]

Did anyone go to any of the context lectures today?
I didn't go but i'm thinking about going in October.
Was it useful? Is it worth it?

lol....... it was the worst lecture i've ever been to.. such a waste of time. I left after the first break (and I think most people did).. the lecturer was extremely boring  - it was extremely painful, I just couldnt wait to leave.

Andrea Hayes: "So before we begin, I just want to let you all know that I'm not here to correct any essays nor lend you any spare change"

21 year old muzza in the back: "WELL THEN SHUT UP"

Andrea Hayes: "How does one be true to one's self?"

21 year old muzza in the back: "DRESS 2 IMPRESS"

Andrea Hayes: I have a tool for you to use in order to help you develop your context pieces, 'MAPS'.

21 year old muzza in the back: "HAHAHA NICE ONE YOU GET PEOPLE TO DRAW FUCKING MAPS"

Ohhhh...
Hmmm, was it the content that was bad? Or just the lecturer?
How are the notes?

[jsimmo]

It was probablly a mix of everything - the lecturer, notes and venue.

The notes are OKAY.. but they aren't anything that I'd pay $30 for.

Overall, it was mainly the lecturer - he was just so bland and talked really slowww

thoughts on the AMFAS lecture room yesterday?
I was shit scared. lol it was so steep and old and yuck. i felt clostraphobic. and i was so uncomfortable.
Really intimidating lecture room,

Was it in the Sunderland theatre (Medical building)? That was where my context lecture was.. I didn't like it either.. the Copland theatre is much better.

Hmm, so would VATE be better than TSFX?
Those two are the only ones that i know of that are still running.

Encountering Conflict, right? The only glimmer of entertainment I had managed to decipher from this guy was when he said 'Thank you for having me and thank you for asking me to speak'. I swear, I lost it! It wasn't the 'thank you for having me', but rather, the mixture of 'thank you for asking me to speak', and everyone clapping thinking the lecture was actually over with half an hour still remaining! I didn't learn anything I didn't know though.

Yeh its in the medical building cant remember what it's called. the one in eco and com building is good though

[jsimmo]

Overall TSFX was good.. it was just the context lecture that was really bad.

I've heard good things about VATE.. although I don't know how it compares with TSFX.

LOL yeah it was that guy. So did you stay after the first break? I presume it didn't get any better?

[mand3e]

LOL. i was totally in encountering conflict lecture.

that was freaking hilarious when he was reading the speech "thank you for coming..." while people were leaving.
umm.. i like the tables better in the medical center than in the commerce and economics building.
and the guy was pretty boring...in fact all the lectures i've attended, i feel have wasted by time. (totally takes me like an 1 travel time!!)

i can't believe i have to go back next week for economics...

dude the one in the com and eco building was my one, identity and belonging. something died inside of me during the first 15 mins

probably your willingness to stay awake. those seats are damn comfy.
