Essay

Is not getting done
I don't know if I'm being granted an extension or not, I did ask for one but haven't heard back.

I might get around to it by Thursday, which is the date it SHOULD be due seeing we actually have a lecture that day.

The whole thing sucketh royally. Mum will have a pink fit if I withdraw from the unit, but I'm likel to fail and better to have a withdrawn than a fail added to my grade point average.

The other thing is I don't know what Centerstink will do if I'm not doing a "full load" at uni. They'll probably want to dock my youthstart a heap just because I'm doing contact hours less. Oh yeah, I can sooo get a decent job with that extra random 2 hours!! *rolls eyes*

Uni and Centerstink

centerlink count you as full time if your doing 75% loading or better, which is 9 points in any semester.

GPA's - withdrawls dont count at all, fails are worth a 0, which hurt averages alot.

I believe that would make you at 66% or there abouts. I'm ot sure how centrelink work with that, but generally there is a sliding scale. however i know that 50% and less is nothing
