Everyone seemed to like the giant bunny, so I thought i'd post more humorous animal photos. This monkey, however, is completely unrelated to the content of this post.

I got an email this morning from Dr Tess from the school of psych at Deakin. It was a group email, asking for people to be peer mentors. So I emailed back and said I'd like to know more. She rang me and explained that for the first 5-6 weeks of semester 1, I'd have to make myself available for a small group of first year psych students, in case they want to ask for advice or something. I thought to myself, well, i'm already Jenko's enrollment officer, so how hard can it be.

I said i'd give it ago. The best part is that i'll get a reference out of it, and it goes towards my reputation in the faculty, so hopefully in a year or so they might give me a job or something. I wanna get in with the cool kids (or at least the cool academics). I also had the idea that it might be handy to get on a faculty commitee somehow; and this might give me some sort of way in. I've goto go to a training session....that might mean socializing...but oh well.

I've also had a lot of trouble with my tute sign ups. OSCAR has a design flaw. Grad Dip units don't get their tutes allocated properly. I was surprised, however, that with just a few emails i got everything fixed up real nice in under 24 hours. Psych faculty actually check their email.
