    I don't like the idea of running with earphones in. Afraid it'll affect my balance.

    Why can't it be like other gyms where the music is pumping out of the speaks. I want CHOOOONS!

    So sick of the gym playlist at this stage...they really need to mix it up, am gonna spaz if I hear Bruno Mars - Marry You one more time, who the hell thinks that makes good gym music? (I'd use my mp3 player if my headphones weren't broken.)

    I was going to say something yesterday but I had a feeling whatever gym instructor was on, it was their musical taste. :cool:

    I will go in search of an email address to voice my complaint, because it's a bit ridiculous at this stage.

    I always have my earphones in when I'm running - doesn't affect my balance at all (and I have crap balance as it is :P).

    I have, however, dropped the mp3 player onto the treadmill and sent it ricocheting across the floor... three times....

    I think it's generally more of a lack clothes washing thats results in that rather distinct aroma.

    Yeah it seems you're at the mercy of whichever instructor is on, generally it's bareable but I did have a good lol one day when SClub7s Reach For the Stars came on:rolleyes:.

    Pretty sure the upstairs lecture theatre in the biosciences building is colder than outside.

    :mad: Why is the Arts Block so damn cold today?! Why do they have the air-conditioning blasting when it's 3 degrees out?!

    7 hours spent calculating a graph and various other equations for a lab report... that's worth about 0.01% of a module :/

    Oh you should do chemistry next year, then you can spend months preparing for a presentation that's worth 2.5% of your grade.

    Don't do it then.

    I don't wanna organise my thoughts coherently in my opening thesis chapter! Waaa! :(

    The essay titles have (finally) been put up for one of my modules... and I don't understand what ANY of them are asking! :(

    Some people are idiots about it though; I've seen laptops with plugs sitting unattended for hours.

    You should feel secure in college and not have to worry about theft in the library.

    Feeling secure is no reason to disregard common sense.

    I'd often leave my laptop at the table, it'd be pretty inconvenient to have it with me all of the time especially if I was just off looking for a book. I think the Hamilton Library seems a bit safer but wouldn't want to risk losing it so might think twice about doing it again : /

    I haven't heard of any laptops in the Hamilton being taken, it's a smaller area so there might be less chance of someone trying to steal it when the owner could be still in the room. But to be honest I think it's mostly the 'I'll leave my laptop to keep this space while I go for a two hour lunch break' people that have to worry
