Finally got the dates for the AFTRS orientation week and my timetable woohoo!
AFTRS orientation week is from February 20-23. I can get my welcome pack, my student ID and there will be orientation sessions and activities. I will be attending the UNSW orientation week as well for the AN meetup, but I want to attend the UNSW orientation activities because why not?
As for my timetable, some weeks will be:
- Tuesday / Wednesday / Friday (most common combination)
- Monday / Tuesday / Friday
- Monday / Tuesday / Thursday
WITH the exception of October 15-November 2 where we have to attend AFTRS Monday-Friday to work on our end of year projects :)
The structure for each day is:
10:30am-11:30am: Lecture
11:30am-5:30pm: Workshop
1:30pm-2:30pm: Lunch
(7 hours in total)
The subject varies each week
As of right now, I'm just trying to sort out my unavailabilities at my work so that I don't get into trouble with my boss.
I just hope I can make friends :)
Edit: Found out there's a O Week Party on February 23 (Friday). Think I'll attend that.

Good news: Got a new laptop. It's a MacBook Pro, 15 inch and 512 GB in Space Grey. I'm ready to edit films in the future.
Bad news: Tried deleting all my data on my old MacBook Air and ended up deleting the startup disk. Can't log in or anything. I have a genius bar reservation this Thursday. I'm not ready to pay the repair bill.

Oh no!! If you've got your data make sure you don't spend more repairing it than you'll get selling it! ;D
You shouldn't need to pay anything, they'll just boot from an external drive and fix everything that way, or similar :)

I've got all my data backed up on my USB so my data is completely fine. The main reason why I wanted to delete my data in my old MacBook Air in the first place is because my mum wants to use the laptop to study for her masters degree. Just hoping things go well during my genius bar appointment because I'm really not ready to pay for the repairs. I keep getting the 'no enter' symbol everytime I turn on my MacBook Air :(

Update: About 3 hours later, my old laptop has now been fixed. Just had to convert the new startup disk. Thank you to EEEEEEP and Rui for helping me ;D
