STOP VSU

To my dear cool ppl,

If you truely are cool, as you so claim to be, then I urge you to prove it by signing this petition. We may still prevail, or at least make an impact. c'mon ppl, this is a democracy goddamnit!

In the next two weeks the Howard Government wants to pass a law that will drastically cut services and representation on our campuses. We need to act now to defend these services:

http://www.getup.org.au/campaign/PutCommunitiesFirst

GetUp.org.au has launched a campaign asking Government Members to block the Voluntary Student Unionism Bill before it becomes a law.

The campaign is based around a national letter of support to the Howard Government MPs and Senators who have expressed concern about the impact of VSU.

This letter is backed up by a TV ad asking Federal MPs to vote against the VSU Bill. The ad is already on the air in Townsville and Lismore.

You can get this ad on air in your local community by signing the letter of support on our website:


http://www.getup.org.au/campaign/PutCommunitiesFirst

When you sign the letter of support you will be asked to nominate your university. GetUp will broadcast our ad on TV in the communities of the metropolitan and regional universities that receive the most nominations.

Thanks!

The GetUp Team

PS. besides, we may get a cool ad that makes the libs look silly
(or...should that be sillier)

Why didnt my pic load..try again

Return of the DVD night!!!! - Thurs 25th

Hi guys,

This thursday - the return of the DVD night. My apologies to all of you who've been hanging out... wondering what's going on.

For the past two weeks I've double booked myself and have had to cancel at the last minute (luckily i have most people's phone numbers so we haven't yet had anyone rocking up to the door when no one's home).


so........back to the good stuff:

Thursday 25th Aug
My house
8.30pm


feel free to bring along anything you might find interesting, and don't worry it doesn't even have to be slightly DVD related. Anything and everything

_Past Thursdays_
In the past we've had: home made goodies such as cake, pudding (thanx Erica), brownies, honey joys (thanx Dee); bought goodies (thanx all); Yoda origami (thanx Erica); as well as DVDs from people's treasured collections (thanx Gnome and Dean). And we've watched such gold as: Orgazmo, Fat Pizza (the movie), John Safran vs God, Kath and Kim, and i'mve sure many more which i've forgotten to name. Oh yeah, and we've had numerous "alarming (literally)" experiences which have involved me setting off the smoke alarm in an attempt to create a little warmth and atmosphere (or should that be ashmosphere!).

So come one come all, and we'll have a night of merriment, entertainment, and we'll possibly even watch a DVD.

Till then, stay safe and happy :)

Bored this Friday? (19th)

Not Coming Home!

Hey guys,
Firstly, Will you kick butt– Mancester Lane!!! I so wish I could come, dance, nibble on their yummy dips and turkish bread and have a few glasses of wine while cheering you on (silently - dont worry).

Luke read my blog (the first one he he) and said it sounded like we were coming home early! NOOOO WWAAYY we aren’t, I am sorry if I made it sound like we were cause I know you guys are missing us like crazy and kissing photos of us before you go to sleep at night.

Take care in the cold Land Down Under!

And I promise Eug I wont take up too much more of this space!

Love ya all! Kel xxx

Tuesday 23rd

Hi guys,
I'll head along on tuesday to Manchester lane - anyone else want to join me for a group outing, or just meet up outside? My ulterior motive is my hope that someone else will also guide me to the right place ;)
Cheers
Naomi.

sorry Eug

Wed 17th

Kel in London

I am currently in a slightly off mood and its all because of a tin of tuna! I brought a plain roll and tin of tuna for lunch (one that has a pull ring)...well that pull ring fell off and because I work for a tight arse London Council their can openers are all rusted and wouldn't open the tin. I had a plain roll for lunch - yummy! While it annoyed me I can very much see the funny side of this!

Having the time of my life - never want this feeling to end. We will be back home sooner than you and I know it but Luke and I both know this will not be our final trip overseas - the bug is very contagious! Going to Dave's this weekend - Im hanging to get out of the city. I have had "dry eyes" and they say it will be because of the polution! YUCK!!!

Keep writing, love all your emails!!!!

Anyone for... Viagra?

Did you guys read/hear about the criminals who are now on the run after stealing $36,000 worth of Viagra?? I read about it in the paper today.

Have a guess how the journalist described those that committed the crime?
Wait for it...

"HARDENED criminals".


This is not a joke.
