Im looking forward to the yearly protest couch burning and generally stupid sh*t that only new zealander would commit

Perhaps if you can post the questions on that part you're having difficulty understanding, that would be better.

if nt mistaken those open fire kena ban liao. nt sure

nnnnnnnuuuuuuuuuuu

that is the only worthy thing to look forward to in dunedin
oh well I doubt anyone follow the ban anyway

haha, during that time of the year, they'll allocate lots of Police forces there...

well other than the riot couch burning , what other stuff can I expect from those bunch of kiwi

internet damn slow and got quota. wahhaha

good then , I could concentrate on my study
since dunedin is the world most boring place anyway

Dunedin? Boring? Get your facts right before making such statements. I have a few Dunedin friends who told me that they prefer Otago over other universities in the northern part of NZ. Unless you are a very reserved person and I found that 9 out of 10 Malaysians here only hang out among themselves and not mix with the Kiwis.

Student life in universities such as Canterbury and Dunedin according to them are much better than the student life in Universities located in Auckland and Wellington, even though the universities are located in the city.

A friend of mine who is doing her PhD in Otago said that people in the university know each other better compare to the other universities and every Friday and Saturday, one can see students hanging out in bars, drunk, etc all over the town. Which is why some people call it the "student town".

Honestly, I am gutted that only Lincoln University and Vic are the only 2 that partners with my previous college, if not, I would've jumped on the chance to go to Otago.

why dont you just apply it by yourself ? apiit doesnt twinning with them and have no connection what so ever but you can still use your college result to try to apply for a place there .

if you are used to kl life style everywhere will be boring ... well atleast from what I heard from so many overseas student , I dunno . generally I would love somewhere slow

and furthermore what so bad being boring ? a boring town is a relax and serene town , it is a good thing

Dictionary: Boring means tedious or not interesting. Which is pretty subjective.

You haven't even been to Dunedin yet and you have already made such conclusions. Like I've said, it is not exactly a boring location as there are probably more activities around the town compare to the other New Zealand universities.

You'd be surprised to find many Aussies complaining about Australia being bored even though many perceive it to be a more happening country than New Zealand. I find Wellington bored to be honest, despite it being the 2nd largest city in the country and the capital city of New Zealand.

a boring place is a good place to me . if you are saying dunedin is not boring then I shall cancel my application and find some other more quiet and slow location

you should come to dunedin then , there is alot of sport and bar for you to choose from . and if Im not mistaken there is bus service midnight going through all those bar location to bring you back home . if you are senior citizen , you can get free bus ride . and if you arent into sport or drink , you can alway go to one of the landfill location , if I remember correctly there is a second hand shop salvaging useable thrash . if you like cooking , saturday they have vegetable market where all farmer bring their freshest product to sell . if you want to fix car and stuff , ousa offer general car course and if you want more advance , otago polytechnic got courses for it and they are desperate for student cause the last enrollment for it is very poor. generally if you arent into typical malaysian kind of activity , dunedin would be fun .

well every one have their own definition of words inside them, if you can take boring as something positive why not ?

boringness, i think depends on how u interpret it ur self.. hey hey.. come to CHC.. if u r active person,, mingle around.. u can always go to the city... the city kinnda happening if the time is right.. especially when there is a match.. coz last time i went to the city around 12 sumthing.. man.. a lot of people on the road.. like riot..

but if u want calm.. just stay around the uni area.. nutyn much happening here.. unless the uni organize something...
plus.. the city and the uni area got distance.. so.. it's like u can choose.. if u want happening/. go to the city i guess.. if u want calmness.. stay around uni.. summer.. u can always lay on the grass studying..
plus.. in CHC..
u can drive


just wanna share.. this video was captured when we want to do majlis berbuka puasa last time..
go there.. pay the owner.. catch it and slaughter..
lucky got this arab who owns his own ladang..

dont say boring la... say "not happening"

Is that true? 1119 accepted for a bachelor? Not stated in any undergraduate courses' catalogues so far......only saw them in foundation courses' entrance requirements... But, is it true? Anxious for an answer...

Apparently it only applies to a few universities and Vic University is one of them

Okay... then it seems that escaping from an International English Language test (eg. IELTS) is still not a wise choice to make.

which university are u going to?

if ur certain of which uni ur going to, then u can check it out with the uni.
some uni accepts our 1119.

i m not sure yet, will be applying fora few as I am using my UEC result, which will only be available in December 2008. Moreover, I am taking the Bachelor of Education / Teaching, so the English requirements are (usually) a bit higher.
