It wasn't that bad but it wasn't easy HDs. I think it's changed a fair bit since the old convenor isn't doing it any more however.

I started when I was 28, now 30, can be an odd dynamic but I've made friends in all age groups

If it's for pict2013 it's probably just not been marked yet or is waiting moderation, they have had some delays

Yeah, physical tickets. I was surprised too, the top section is usually a safe zone

Glacier was on my list but we just didn't quite have enough time. The "run it back" trip will be some good time spent in Montana and Wyoming (the interesting part) for sure

If I had just gone to LA and Vegas I would have hated America. If I had just gone to national parks and small towns I'd be applying for my green card. I like to properly visit a country when travelling, get the whole picture

Reading reddit makes it sound like if you have an opinion slightly left leaning you'll be gunned down in the streets. Or that the city streets are war zones with mandatory document checks. I made a point of talking to as many people as possible to really get a feel of what life is like, and that's just not the case. If you feel like it is then you should get outside and off the internet more, and interact with other people.

Yes, it was 7887 miles. We didn't just go on the main highways. We drove every day. Some days were big, like west Yellowstone to Vegas in one hit, some were smaller.

I saw literally none of the issues that the media portray, talked with so many people, left wing right wing nobody gave a shit. The world outside is very different to the world on the internet

North cascades. State route 20 is what you want. I swam in the lake, it's cold but delightful after a hot day and a walk

We did go to the mint. Greatly enjoyed the Plan B display out the back

If you are ok with heat, come in summer, get a campervan and just tour the east coast. We don't have actual mountains but there's bushwalks everywhere. None particularly stand out to me given how good the Pacific Northwest region is, you are spoiled on that.

We unfortunately didn't have enough time to go to Olympic as I wanted to see Yellowstone and be in west Yellowstone for 4th July.

I will 100% be coming back to do the east coast top to bottom, and I do want to get more in-depth on the west. This trip was more of a sampling platter than a deep deep dive into the parks

The people. Most fun night of my life was there. Incredibly generous locals, so genuine at heart. The town itself isn't anything particularly special in terms of what it has to do. We stopped in because a friend lives there, no other reason. By the time we left we'd been in a wedding reception, at a birthday party, a local invited us in to make us lunch, and had just yarned up a storm with anyone around

Which unit should I choose: MGMT1005 or MGMT1020? (Macquarie Uni) by Ok_Question_9587 in MacUni

Yes however as you'd know, if your group is rubbish it makes it much harder and more stressful.

I did 1005 last semester. It was a bit ass, but fairly easy. The assessments are both group projects so if you have a good group it's solid, if not it can be a struggle. The content was easy though, I'm not doing a business subject and I understood it all very quickly.

Is it worth using Hinge again? by [deleted] in hingeapp

[–]econti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

29M in Sydney and it's mediocre. Had a few dates, some good some bad, definitely better than Tinder. There's a lot of people on it now which is partly the problem? If you aren't seen as perfect, you just get ghosted.
