My house to Monash... hmmm....

Option One: 2 hours by public transport

or

Option Two: 1~2 hours by car (oh, the joys of peak-hour traffic).

I choose you, pikachu!

Haha epic car, about the same times for me as well.

Do you live in the west also?

I reckon for me the car would get expensive quick.

I always get up around 1.5-2 hours early, to cram work, get ready and maybe fit some violin practice in :D
Then it can take anywhere between 5 and 20 minutes to get to school

Yeah, I'm west-sider as well.

My car's actually very fuel efficient... costs me about $40 a week, and I do a fairly generous amount of driving.

School about 10-15 minutes on the bus, 5 minutes by car, but with the bus, the stop is outside my house and drops me off outside the school, so their really isn't any complaints.

With Uni next year, if I get into the uni I hope to go to - about 30 minutes on bus and tram and about 10 driving so pretty good as well.

2 to 4 minutes O_O do you like live next door?


That's by car! But yeah my parents chose my school because it was so close (it's also right behind my primary school so I've always had the luxury of sleeping in).

Sort of irrelevant; they recently found a dead body really close to my school, it's on a street which I've walked past for years.

Loll yeah same parents want to live near school. Hahah i used to live like behind my primary school too.

But now:

By car: ~5mins

Walk: 15-20min

Of course it depends on traffic and how fast you walk as well.

Great to see a lot of fellow west siders on VN :)

Takes me about 40 mins to get to uni (UoM), consisting of a 5 min drive, 20 min train and 5-10 min bus, plus waiting times.
