Last day of NLCAC

Hello people!
hello from the woody, chilly areas of Newcastle!
Wassarp~

Issue #1
Sickness sucks
basically, i've been sick for the past few days, down on flu. Sigh... My nose, my throat, even my EARS, feel like they're on fire!! Man, if this persists, i'll start to have a temper akin to a dragon, breaThing Fire at everyone in sight.

Issue #2
The notorious Victorians
Seems that us victorians have been notorious this time around, for our constant stream of procedural motions and amendment motions just keep coming, although to the frustration and anger of the others on the conference floor. Hey! We're just being OVERly-critical of everything that happens. Anyway, GO VICtorians!

Currently feeling:
Still sick, but getting better. 50% better actually, as one nostril smells the nice smells of the woodlands, but the other, is FLAMING like hot chilli! ARGH! wish me well, guys.

NLC Annual Conference


Okay, In about 8 hours, I will be on a plane off to Newcastle, off to attend the annual conference for the national liaison committee (NLC)

A lot of people ask me, what am I gonna do there?

Well, something tells me its gonna be a whole week of debating over the issues facing international students in Australia as a whole. Sounds grand and important eh? Issues like Visa conditions, VSU, Transport Concession, etc. Ooooo, there's bound to be some hot debates coming up.

OR, it could just be a week, totally boring, spent wishing for the day I come back.

What shall it be?
oh, some have told me that the 'extra'-curricular activities there will be pretty interesting.

Oh well, Let's see, shall we?
Check back in a week!
