I'm off to Uni

I'm moving onto Bathurst Campus for Charles Sturt Uni, which is 4hrs drive from home.

I'm moving on Monday Mornin, I have to be in between 9am and 11am.
So that means getting up at 4am

Anyway, I'm not sure what my connection will be like there ( It's all networked up, and I'll be useing Internet like Pre-Paid Mobile Phone Credit ), so I dont' know how long it'll be before I'm back online.

However, Uni itself wont effect what I do here, in anyway

Have fun in the few days that I'm offline

Jess.

Nooooooo anyway good luck

About your internet, do you mean you pay £30 (just a random price) a month or you put a load of money in ur account and it spends it per minute (which sucks)

Well if it's like pre-paid credit, then he'll pay per kb, i.e. he can add $30 into his account and it may deduct 0.1c for every kilobyte uploaded and downloaded. Then, when he's used up all of his credit, he'll have to add more in again. Sure does suck to be him, although because it's a Uni service, it should be more lenient.

I'M BACK!

Exeat nailed it on the head there. I'm not sure how much it is, but I think I got $5 free ( whoopty-doo! ), but after this, I have to pay per dl/ul.

And, Pirate, I am here to study Games Tech.

Unfortunatly, I'm only 17, so Uni night life kinda super sucks at the moment! Only 3 months to go... C'mon May!

Jess.

Me too, at Swinburne Uni. I'm doing a BMm (Games and Interactivity) / BSc (Computer Science and Software Engineering). Huge course covering 3D Modelling, Games Theory, Games Design, and Programming. Should be great.
