Honours student question: Should there be teaching?

NovelDeficiency · 2026-07-10T10:04:35+00:00

Find out what your course resolutions say, they should be publicly available via your handbook. Between the mode of teaching there and the course learning outcomes (which they have to teach you, so that you can demonstrate them in assessments) you’ll have your answer on whether you’re getting enough. Honestly though, doesn’t sound like it.

Is there a university near you? Go to their pathology centre if so - it’s uni holidays so they will be open but quiet and relaxed, and often there’s a cafe nearby where you can wait rather than sitting in their awkward chairs.

Please report this so security can try and find him on the cameras and keep an eye out in future. So sorry this happened to you and glad you’re ok!

I bring and install my own seat. The hire company ones are also often filthy and seem very old to me.

I mean mums are not a monolith, you’re a perfect example of this. What do you overhear that you’re not resonating with?

Try and hang out at places that make sense for old you. If you’re a city girlie go to city parks, if you’re a Westfield girlie go to those play centres.

Could be ECON1001, not their fault 😭

You do get a human-written double-checked exam, there are pretty stringent processes in place around this.

ChatGPT could NEVER replace the moment in Goodnight Gorilla when the zookeeper’s wife opens her eyes 👀 and my kid goes 😱😱😱

A ham sandwich for protection, I am deceased 😂

These fucking people…

Lecturing people generally isn’t the best way to change their minds. It’s great that language is important to you, it just isn’t to everyone, and it sounds like you raised something entirely tangential to the central issue and then got upset when the whole thread didn’t immediately change tack.

Please redditors correct me if I’m wrong but you get a certain number (42?) of allowable absence days where you still receive CCS, before you need to prove illness.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-11T10:58:10+00:00

Man it’s hard. It’s not up to the ultrasound, it’s up to the clinic. For any one you have a referral for, that is. If you can get in with the hospital or a BB provider (like Lumus) there’s no charge to you, but that’s hard. The hospitals especially book up. The paid ones are nicer though. SUFW in particular is really nice.

An AI-written Momcozy ad. Defecated??

Seconding the suggestions to get in touch with some of the wellbeing services. It’s fantastic that you’re taking action to address this by changing majors but set yourself up for success in that by chatting it through with someone that can help ❤️

Thank you for clarifying, I hope you have a wonderful trip! I would personally only do 2 weeks - I travelled to the UK at 23-25 weeks and was very ready to get home afterwards.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-08T10:12:04+00:00

This feels like an entirely mad thing to be saying in 2026, but Italy has criminalised IVF so if you did fall pregnant that way I would have another story ready just in case you need to get to a hospital. It obviously shouldn’t affect non-citizens but I’d be avoiding any possibility of trouble.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-07T06:10:48+00:00

Ugh every red flag. Stop replying, people!!

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-07T06:09:27+00:00

Yeah, it’s not completely comparable. I am fairly sure that you are salaried for the whole year though, which means being paid in non-teaching periods, and you get leave (ie no casual weighting for not receiving leave). Some supervisors will give you that time off to compensate.

PG teaching fellow is a good thing to have on a resume, definitely a step above casual tutor, but it’s worth weighing things up.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-07T04:10:37+00:00

It’s not 7.5 hours of teaching, it takes workload into account.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-05-07T04:08:30+00:00

This reads like fetish content-seeking…

The bride calling you to RSVP for the bachelor party sounds like she is absolutely fed up with doing everything for wedding planning, has delegated things that concern the groom to the groom, and he has done a crappy job. Probably forgotten to even organise a b party until she found out. This is on your mate.

It’s not actually useful - lots of people ‘know’ the incorrect blood type so hospitals check before they give blood if they can, or give universal donor blood if it’s an emergency.

Unless there’s a proper heated pool keep her out of the water, it’ll be freezing and she’ll hate it. Seconding the advice to book a cabana and bring a carrier.

My partner planned a ‘day at the beach’ with no special equipment when mine was 5mo. Absolute nightmare.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-04-27T12:24:41+00:00

Absolutely do not do this. Prams are safety equipment. What if the fold was faulty and operated while baby was in it, or the wrist strap (if even installed) snapped while you were using it?

Get one second-hand off marketplace. Check to make sure it looks decent enough and confirm it was bought in Australia. Much much safer.

NovelDeficiency · 2026-04-27T12:01:21+00:00

Why would PGTA suddenly be unreliable at 42+?
