hi everyone!
i think most of us (hopefully) are going to the open days, and checking out all the universities. since the unsw open day is coming up this saturday, i thought we could plan an AN meetup, because it would be so fun to see some of you. :-)
so when, and where?
excited to see some of you,
fantasticbeasts x

But I'll wear my ATAR Notes shirt if I do come so I'm not hard to find. I don't think there's any major concerns with me coming; but I'll reconfirm on Friday or something to be sure. Besides, after the meet-up I can just steal a computer lab anyway.
Remember: You do want to get something out of your Open day. So do go to some of the lectures and learn some stuff about what you're interested in. But FREEBIES are your #1 priority, not the lectures.
jamonwindeyer is most likely obliged to come if I come.

I'll be looking to see if they give out free fidget spinners like Macquarie.

I'm cool with any time :)
Basically what I'll have to do is after my piano lesson ends I gotta drive straight to UNSW so I don't waste all of your time :P

I can only be there from 9am-12pm. :P

I'll be there all day!! :)) Hyped for the free food hahaha
alrighty!! i'll be there from about 11.30-4ish so if you see me anywhere come say hi (if you know what i look like? changed my forum photo yesterday because someone from my school was on here)
the food at unsw open day is pretty good and the freebies as well :-)) excited!
I'll definitely try my best to make arrangements to be there (why am I 2 hours away, why)
woooooo
I will come if Rui and Jamon comes :P
hey look here, rui and jamon! an incentive for you to come! bit of an ultimatum but coming means meeting EEEEEEP so that's got to be a good thing right? 😜

Tbh when I get there, unless someone bumps into me immediately I'm probably gonna head straight for where the electrical engineering and Ainsworth buildings are :P
Also, if anyone's too scared to walk into a building, whilst I promise you that you're safe walking into one you can always follow me into it

That's a good call, if we are there we can take you to the building for whatever your degree is and show you around! I mean, not that you stay in your building, but cool to see your stuff ;D

Damn you Marco >:(
Also those buildings will be kinda obvious once you're there. They're like at the middle of the campus, where that globe thingamabob is

aye sounds good! i went last year and found it alright to navigate which is quite odd because i'm terrible with that kind of stuff 😅 btw what bus goes directly from central station to unsw?

Usually if it says Anzac Parade or 39something it should work... I usually just use opal travel (or planmytrip if I'm on a computer)

alright cool thanks! checked out the 39-ish buses and most of them lead straight to unsw so should be good transport wise :-)

Actual, proper, full on AN NSW meet-up is absolutely happening in the future too 8)

i don't think it would be a proper meet up, if you could call it that, but i'll be around pretty much the whole day, come say hi! will be changing my forum photo for the time i'm there so you all know what i look like :-)
Sorry guys - I've been sick the last day or two and I just need to rest it off otherwise it isn't going to go away :( have fun though! Rui will show you everything you want to see (Jake or Maddie or Naomi or Isaac might actually be there too, not sure?) ;D

If they're open, Coffee on Campus is the coffee shop next to the Globe Lawn (the lawn with the metal globe on it, opposite Electrical Engineering Building) - They've got the best coffee on lower campus to get you through ;) if fyou are up near the Main Library, look around for the cart selling coffee - They are also tops ;D
Also, snack packs from the Kebab Shop in the Quad Food Court near the UNSW Book Shop are way better than the ones from the shop near the library ;)
Post by: winstondarmawan on September 01, 2017, 11:34:07 pm
If we get off at Central station, there will be a line of open day attenders with UNSW helpers waiting for a bus outside right? Do I just have to look for that group and catch that bus?
Post by: RuiAce on September 01, 2017, 11:37:48 pm
Just a question about transport!You'll most likely see a giant group AND helpers so it'll be fine

Pardon the chain post. I'll merge later (or if any mod wants to merge it for me after 20min that'd be appreciated.)
So most likely I'll be there. I'll probably be in the car (from Hurstville) at around 1:30. This means I'll anticipate to arrive around 2:05 and at latest 2:25, but I don't know how long it'll take to find parking. I'll head straight for the Globe lawn (as E6P pictured) and I'll be very obvious in my ATARnotes shirt. Come up and say hi/poke/yell at me whatever I'll probably respond two seconds delayed but from there we'll see how things go!
I don't anticipate being there later than 2:45 but if that does happen... well either I'll post about it or just text Jess? Idk
Requested merge :)

Can't wait until the proper AN NSW meet-up! Should be great!
I'll be there for most of the day (from around 9:30-3:30). I'll try and find some of you guys but if you see me definitely come up and talk to me.
Hopefully, I'll be able to meet some of you!
So excited! See you there :D

2 law rulers
A magnetic screwdriver from engineering
2 small notebooks (useful for planning/diary etc)
Like 20 pens, mostly 4 colour ones, and a few of them served as iPad styluses too
A measuring tape

excited to meet you!!!
Make sure to get the freebies. Went last year in year 11 as it's on during year 12 trials, but I got:
2 law rulers
A magnetic screwdriver from engineering
2 small notebooks (useful for planning/diary etc)
Like 20 pens, mostly 4 colour ones, and a few of them served as iPad styluses too
A measuring tape
trials are still on for you? whaaaaaattt that's crazy. the freebies are amazing at unsw hahahah sometimes i feel bad faking interest about certain fields just to get freebies
guys i have an idea for the AN nsw meetup. we could have a mass study date at the state library before hsc, then go to wherever for lunch or have a drink at lindt. martin place is huge so it could accommodate lots of people - just an idea :-)
anyway, very excited to meet some of you tomorrow!!
