Dear Students, It’s almost time for you to farewell your 2011 UniLife diaries and add a reminder in your phone to pick up the 2012 edition. Congrats to those who are graduating and for the rest of you, kudos for making it through the year.

We hope you enjoyed the 370 UniLife events we held this year including U Week, the Kangaroo island tree planting trip and the extravagant annual masked ball.

A big shout out to the UniLife clubs who have helped build campus culture. Congrats to all the clubs that kicked [Adelaide and Flinders] ass in the Central and Australian University Games. You have made us proud! Represent.

2011 has been a year of positive collaboration between students andstaff, working to achieve an even better student experience.

As a result of all your support this year, UniLife has significantly evolved for the betterment of the student body. Needless to say, 2012 is going to be COLOSSAL.

The elections for the 2012 UniLife Board begin October 26. You can vote online via your email link. One lucky voter will win two air tickets to the Australian capital of their choice and $1000!

Farewell Students

This is a great chance for UniSA Artists and Performers to show off their talents!

The Australian Government has passed a bill that allows Higher Education Providers such as UniSA to now charge a compulsory Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF) in 2012 of up to $264 per student. UniLife wants you to tell us where you want your money spent in 2012, with 5 iPad2’s up for grabs for completing this survey and forwarding the link onto four of your UniSA mates!

The survey can be found online atsurveymonkey.com/s/ssafsurvey/ with results published on UniLife’s website on Nov 11.

For now, finish your last assignments, study for your last exams then come to the student bar at City West to share a drink with friends.

You all ROCK! Stay cool, stay smart,stay YELLOW,

Mount GambierWrap up

Hi peeps!

Another year almost over... and what a busy year it has been!

This year due to my absence on placement for SP2, UniLife took a slightly different flavour, more relaxed and casual than the pub crawls of 2010, but still just as social!! The new UniLife BBQ got fair use in its first year and is always there and available for students to use when needed (keep this in mind, eh?!) we even managed some fundraising with it, to send some of our own overseas on a humanitarian trip!

Winter Warmers were definitely well received (who doesn’t love a hot soup on a cold Mt Gambier day!!), orientation fun days welcomed new students, and don’t forget the pizza night! The biggest news is that planning has been happening to establish a UniLife student space *that we can call our own* and this will be unveiled in 2012!

A huge thank you must go out to the committee who have worked tirelessly helping me with events this year: Jen, Nat, Sarah, Denae, Davina, Jodi, Sharnie and last but certainly not least, my UniLife successor, Ashley, who has some exciting plans for 2012, so stay tuned!

This is not quite goodbye from me, yet! I will stick with UniLife for a while longer to see the Mount Gambier Masquerade Ball happen on Saturday 3rd December! I hope you have all got your tickets! The night promises to be full of entertainment, prizes and fun, with food and drinks included! Get there early to have your picture taken by Ralph Meznar (no obligation to buy) and go in the draw to win your picture, FREE! Prizes will also be awarded for the best-dressed male, female and couple, so get your glad-rags and masks on and don’t forget your dancing shoes!

The Australian University Games began on Sunday 25 September 2011 on the Gold Coast. The event ran for a week and showcases the best sporting talent from over 40 Universities Australia wide. With over 28 Sports contested, the Games provided thousands of University students from across the country the opportunity to compete and battle it out for a National University medal.

UniSA sent 9 teams (a total of 80 students) to compete in a wide range of events. There was plenty of outstanding sport performances delivered by participating students, and even though UniSA didn’t bring any medals home, the athletes did a fantastic job representing the University. UniLife would like to specially thank all the Team Managers and Coaches for their time and commitment, and for coming up to support all the players.

There were many memorable experiences for the students, both in the competitive element and from the side lines. The whole of Surfers Paradise prepared for the thousands of students that came up for the AUG, and social venues were open around town every night exclusively for them. With so much fun to offer, it is even more admirable that our students did behave well and performed on such a high level!!UniSA students participated in the following events, and the results were:

2011 Australian University Games

Women’s 800 Meters Run: 5th Position Men’s Badminton: 8th PositionWomen’s Basketball: 7th PositionMen’s Basketball: 4th PositionWomen’s Beach Volleyball: 5th PositionMen’s Football: 4th PositionMen’s Hockey: 7th Position Judo - 73 Kg: 2nd and 3rd PositionMen’s Swimming: 12th PositionMen’s Volleyball: 6th Position

Overall, the experience at the AUG was excellent and our teams are lookingforward to next year’s Australian University Games in Adelaide, achieving more outstanding results!!

University is more than just a school for big kids. For us feeble students, university is a lifestyle to which we are accustomed. A little cocoon in which to wrap ourselves in and hide from the lives we will soon live as real people with real jobs. ‘I’m still a student,’is a great excuse to constantly procrastinate and spend way too much time playingpool in the Caf.

However there will come a time when all students must ditch their lazy ways and see what the real world is like through internships and placements. Many degrees at UniSA offer students a chance to see what they’re really in for by throwing them head first into their prospective fields.So what can you expect?

Bachelor of Junior Primary/Primary Education student Ally Ong was lucky enough to experience four placements throughout her degree. Whilst she admits the placements have been challenging at the best of times, she attributes her confidence to the experience.

“Your placement shows you that you can actually do it, it’s an amazing feeling,”she said.

“In my fourth year placement, I did 5weeks of full time teaching without a mentor. It really gave me a chance tosee what to expect as a teacher.”

Stepping intothe real world

ANGELA MALUSA

Ally feels that her placement allowed her to develop the social skills needed to communicate effectively with all the people she will regularly be in contact with, which she explains is more than just fellow teachers and students.

“It all comes down to building up healthy relationships, especially with parents. A lot of them become really involved in the school and my placement taught me to interact with parents in a professional manner,” she said.

“My experience gave me an insight intohow the communication within a school actually works, something I couldn’t have learnt in my studies.”

Public Relations student Georgia Aish worked hard to earn an internship at the Adelaide Crows Football club. Like most students, Georgia says she was scared to leave the comfort of university but greatly appreciates the benefits of working closely with professionals.

“You get feedback straight away. It’s so good because in the classroom you rarely get that,” she said.

“I was very nervous at first, but after thisI could do anything.”

Georgia is adamant to inform students that all their slogging away at essays and sleepless study nights all come in handy.

“Everything I’ve learnt in class is reflecting itself in the organisation. Things like how the organisation works, how it is structured and most importantly how decisions are made,” she said.

So there we have it, the proof is in the pudding. Internships are not the terrifying experience students have nightmares about.

Let this be a lesson to all students hiding behind their essays and student discount cards. One day we will be without the comfort that a student life provides us.It’s time to scrub up and see what’s instore for you!

how

to

The time has come to enter the big wide working world. You have studiously spend the last few years slaving away at university, attending all those lectures, noting all of your readings and of course submitting every assignment in on time (I see you nodding). But where to from here?

You have that fabulous graduation certificate in hand (all those late nights were worth it, right?) and a brain bustling with knowledge, you are ready to hit the ground running towards your dream job. Even for those of you in transit from first year to graduation day, these helpful interview tips will have your future bosses ticking all of the boxes before you have a chance to flash them your freshly printed CV.

You’ve just landed an interview for the job of all jobs… or something of equivalence. It will pay the bills, is in the area of your chosen discipline and will let you workyour way up to success with (let’s be honest) a bit of shit kicking in-between. Whilst your application was impressive enough for a call back, it’s your interviewing skills that will have them leading the wayto your new office.

Punctuality: Is essential in proving that you are organised and excited by the job prospects. There is a fine line between on time and overly eager; so around the five minute mark is a good time frame.

How To:Ace a JobInterview

ALANA FOSTER

Enthusiasm: Do your background research. Google is there for a reason people so read up on the company, the job and the working environment. Even your interviewer so you can drop in a line like… “I am extremely impressed in your drive and success in developing this company, it is something I would love to be involved within”. Eye contact is always essential!

Personal Goals: Knowing what you want from this job and how the job can benefit you. Cross promote yourself and the company; giving examples of how you can utilise the company’s principles in your role is something that will be highly appraised. There is nothing better than networking so talk about the opportunities for you and the company and how “eager you are to grow/learn/develop”.

Ask Questions: Be assertive and ask as many questions throughout the interview, – try and avoid anything to do with a salary or holidays – using your research to fuel your questions it will show initiative and a valid interest in the job.

Put a positive spin on anything negative, for example if they ask you to discuss “one thing you could improve on as an individual”. So you answer spins a negative with a positive, “I sometimes have difficulty working towards deadlines, but by creating and prioritising ‘to do’ lists I ensure the work is done on time”. This highlights a positive trait (organised) and answers the question.

Prepare: Whether this is over the phone or via email, always ask what they will require you to bring a résumé is a given so ask about a portfolio of work or written references. You want to be prepared with as much information before you enter the interview. This means triple editingyour cover letter and résumé, having examples of work handy (printed or online like a blog is a good idea).

Practice: Answering the basic interviewing questions that will no doubt be asked, like “tell us about yourself” or “why this job”.Try and avoid sounding generic, be honest and don’t second-guess yourself because you are under a test, you want to present the best you there is.


Remember to stay calm, talk at a normal pace and don’t swear (something I am always scared of doing is dropping the F bomb without even realising until it is too late). Dress: To impress. It’s better to be over than under dressed; smart corporate style is the way to go. Ladies heels are always a good option but make sure you can walk in them without looking like you’ve had a few drinks. Gents, a no-no is sneakers, wear your best leather shoe and you should have no problem.

Thank-you: At the conclusion of an interview shake their hand and sincerely thank them for their time. This is a small gesture that will not go unnoticed.

Put yourself in the shoes of your future employer. You need to possess strengths that they themselves hold within their own jobs, showthem you really want to work for their company.

You can never go into an interview too prepared, remember that you haven’t got the job just yet, while thoughtful suggestions and ideas are showing your enthusiasm and career aspirations for the job, ensure there is a balance between knowing it and being a know it all. Remember who is boss!

Now you are ready to ace your interview and score that dream job, good luck!

While in one months time I’m entering the big wide world, I know there are a lot ofyou who will be back at uni next year todo it all again.

Some of you may be starting to lack the motivation needed to keep going. Trust me, we’ve all been there. I was definitely there back in my second year of university when I realised that an adventure on foreign shores, in fact, a semester walking down different corridors, was exactly whatI needed!

As my four years at UniSA come to a close, I can say without any doubt that my semester on exchange to Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada, was by far the most rewarding part of my degree,if not the most rewarding experience ofmy life so far!

Now I know what you’re thinking, ‘here’s another lucky bugger about to tell me how awesome their experience was’. Well guess what? You’ve heard that before.

I’m here to tell you the five reasons you should go on exchange, and the five simple steps needed to get the process started.

You may have always talked about going on exchange, or maybe you’ve never even thought about it. So let’s see if I can give you the motivation to go for it, becauseyou will not regret it!

5 REASONS YOU MUST GO ON EXCHANGE

1. It looks awesome on your resume. Many employers will look favourably on the fact that you not only studied at another institution, but you had the drive to move half way around the world for a semester!

2. Get a new perspective on your future career. While of course the basics are the same, many universities have a slightly different teaching style, and your industry may be somewhat different in that country.

3. A chance to go globetrotting! People who go on exchange often take weekend trips away and/or travel before/after their study. After all, who doesn’t want a chance to see the world?

4. Live an exciting new life. You get to live a completely different life for six months, making a foreign city your second home, without worrying about delaying your graduation!

5. New mates! You will meet so many people, both from your host country and other exchange students, and you’ll form lifelong friendships which will give you free accommodation right across the globe!

5 STEPS TO ORGANISE YOUR EXCHANGE

1. Are you eligible? To go on exchange you need a GPA of 4.0 and above, have no more than 9 failed units and have completed at least 36 units. Of course you should also be of good health, culturally aware and ready represent UniSA overseas!

2. Oh the places you can go! You can go on exchange to any of UniSA’s 70+ partner universities! The world is your oyster, Canada to Japan, Sweden to India. Check out the universities and see whether they offer the equivalent of your course. Read up on some of the returned student reports to hear how returning students enjoyed their semester abroad!

3. It’s time to apply. Once you’ve researched a couple of universities it’s time to apply for the UniSA exchange program! This stage of the application can be done on the university website. Once that’s submitted you just have to wait a few weeks to hear back from UniSA.

4. The ball is rolling! UniSA will let you know whether they’ve accepted your application, and then the student exchange officers will direct you in applying for your host universities. They may take a while to get back to you so patience is a virtue! Use this time to look into accommodation and flights.

5. The final steps. Once they’ve accepted you it’s time to get your Visas, organise accommodation, book flights etc. before heading off on your exciting new adventures!!! Depending on your host university, final enrolments mightbe done before heading off or during orientation on campus.

So, have I convinced you? WANT TO FINDOUT MORE???

So much about organising an exchange can simply be found on the website www.unisa.edu.au/exchange/ so don’t forget to check it out!Any specific queries can be directed [email protected].

If you want to head on exchange in Study Period 5 2012, applications close January 11 2012.GET ON IT!

Being a uni student can be pretty tiring stuff; keeping up with lectures, readings assignments and part time jobs whilst not forgetting the seriously large amount of partying that your average student must participate in to get the full university experience. For me however, that experience is different. Not only am I a full time uni student, I am also a full time single mum. While many a students’ nights are spent at parties, mine consist of Blue’s Clues and The Wiggles.

A typical uni day for me involves getting up at 5 am in the morning to get a couple of solid hours of study done before having to get myself and my son ready for the day. At about 7 am I start to get ready - by this stage I am on about my third coffee. I pack bags, make breakfast, get myself dressed and, if he hasn’t woken up already, I wake my son. As soon as he is awake the cartoons start. We finish getting ready and are out the door just after 8 am. First stop is day care, where I drop my son off for the day. Thankfully, he loves it and not often do we have drama for me to leave.

Then it is off to uni for a full day. I am there from 9 til 4 and once uni has finished it’s off to go get the boy from day care, sometimes a stop by the supermarket before heading home, But it doesn’t stop there. As soon as we walk through the door, it is go for operation bedtime. The bath is put on and boy put in there while I start the prep for dinnertime. Whilst dinner is cooking, I get

the boy out and into his pyjamas before serving up and eating. After dinner, amovie goes on while I check my emails, normal mail and clean up from themorning and dinner.

By 8pm, the boy is hopefully asleep and then there is still no rest for meI sit down and do all my readings for classes and assignments as well as taking notes.By about 10:30 it’s time for bed and I am zoned out as soon as I hit the pillow, before getting ready for another early morning.

Being a uni student at a regional campus has made studying whilst being a mum a whole lot easy. I can get easy access to childcare, everything is close by and housing is cheaper. Moreover, many of the regional students are the in the same situation. Of the 14 students in our classes, six of us still have children living at home with us. Many of us students would not have this opportunity to study if it was not for the regional campuses.

Being a mum doesn’t mean that I can’t get involved. I am on the Mt Gambier Unilife event committee helping out with all the fun events that we put on for the students. So not only do the regional campuses help to retain younger workers in rural areas but it also helps to train up the older students who might have organised their lives in a different order.

Therefore, while many city students party, socialise and make the most of their uni experience, I sit at home with The Wiggles playing in the background typing up assignments. Honestly, I would not haveit any other way.

City West Student Lounge Every Friday evening from 5pm during Study Periods 2 & 5. Drinks specials for Premium Members, cheap BBQ, DJ’s and band performances. Free entrance for all UniSA Students & Staff. Visit www.UniLife.edu.au for weekly updates on bands and entertainment.

Ever wonder what people get up to after finishing uni? CHANELLE LESLIE caught up with UniSA Graduate Sam Wright,the creator of 6 on the Street, about theexciting project.

With a name only one letter away from being ‘sex on the street’, it’s hard notto notice Adelaide’s freshest up and coming film.

6 on the St is the name of the documentary birthed by Your Take Sessions, a group of dynamic young filmmakers, who last year set out to shine the spotlight on local music artists with six-minute episodes published online. This year, with the government’s support, the episodes have been collated to create a full-length documentary that discusses the state of the local music scene. With the film due to debut at Mercury Cinemas on October 29, UniLife Magazine was excited to talk to producer Sam Wright about the project.

Like most good things, it all came together over a couple of drinks.

‘We were sitting at the Exeter, and I had noticed that Ariana [Woods, the documentary presenter] had drunk quite an amount of wine,’ said Wright. ‘I saw an opportunity to make a greater thing happen and asked if she could present 6 on the St. She let out a drunken “yeah”, and 6 onthe St was born.’

‘6 on the St’ and it’s creator,

Sam Wright

The idea was birthed in Canada, aftera night of scouring YouTube in a labourof love.

‘[My flatmate and I] were watching videos continuously, and he was raving about this hot girl that he’d seen playing on this music video and we were like, okay, we’ll try to find it… She was fairly hot, but the important thing was the way it was shot. Everything was really interesting, and I’d never seenit before.’

The video that Wright had stumbled upon was by La Blogothèque, a French website that makes short films about international music artists in a way that hasn’t been emulated by traditional media.

‘From there, I jumped into this whole idea of filming in a way that’s really spontaneous and that’s not at all planned,’ said Wright. ‘You can tell that they’ve literally just rocked up there, started rolling the cameras, andlet the person speak.’

Although there’s often a pervading sense of parochialism among artists about their originality, Wright is frank about La Blogothèque being his source of inspiration. ‘I try to be as honest about that as I can;I don’t pretend like 6 on the St was my idea.

‘People like [La Blogothèque] are more than for it. And so they should be. The idea is getting recycled around the world now.

‘It’s just allowing people to see more artists in a bit of a refreshing way for somepeople who just maybe only will discover that today.’

Clearly this isn’t someone who is seeking glory for himself or his team, but rather someone who’s genuinely enthusiastic about supporting the local arts industry.It’s rare to find South Australian artists who aren’t counting down the minutes until they leave for the big smokes of Melbourneor Sydney. But Wright won’t stand forthat attitude.

‘People see the barrier between Melbourne and Sydney [and Adelaide], and the fact that people see a barrier is an issue right there. Why should we even compare ourselves to


Melbourne? We’re never going to be Melbourne. We’re Adelaide. We’re smaller. Everybody knows everybody. And it strikes me as bizarre that people don’t see that as an advantage.

While he admits that ‘there could be so much more happening’ in Adelaide, he points to organisations such as Format Collective, Fourwords and Stobie Sounds as examples of local enthusiasts making huge progress towards a more art-focused culture.

‘You know, it’s interesting because we talk about what’s going on here to friends in Melbourne and Sydney, and they get excited by it, so that really demonstrates that it’s doing well.’

So well, in fact, that Your Take Sessions was recently invited to film Washington after her manager was impressed by their video of Old Man River on a Ferris Wheel. Since the initial episodes were published online in 2010, they’ve filmed Cloud Control, Katie Noonan and Birdsof Tokyo, and had one of their films screenedto 14,000 people at a public forum with theDalai Lama.

Despite all the hype, Wright isn’t developingany airs about his work.

‘It feels like Adelaide’s the equivalent of making the first album, which is generally gold, and it’sa bit rough around the edges,’ Wright said,‘We’re always learning.’

6 on the St will be screened over three sessions on October 29 at Mercury Cinemas.

CLAIRE SUCKLING spoke to former UniSA students Mike Worsman and Chris Campbell about how their revolutionising the way we hear about the world.

In a tragic reflection of our time, the notion of quality, ethically sound journalism is regarded by the modern media consumer as non-existent, or at the very least,a laughable concept with little practical premise.

After seven months of studying journalism, I have given up on trying to convince cynics that the world of journalism and its questionable ethical practices are evolving, into something new, something better.

Now I simply show them the South Australian website that has already become a huge part of this change. It’s called Our World Today.

Mike Worsman and Chris Campbell are two empowered, young UniSA journalism graduates with passion, drive and the ability to inspire. Together they founded thenon-for profit organisation on November 2, 2010 and officially launched the news website on August 1, of this year.

“We both agreed that the media had a draining effect on society, in that after watching a news bulletin or reading apaper it is impossible to feel inspired orlike you could help in any way to improve the world,” said Mike

“When seven billion of us wake up each day, the vast majority of us do so naturally with intentions of bettering our world, yet for all of our daily achievements, discoveries, compassion and love, we are bombarded with little other than war, death, hateand depression.”

Since the launch date, their passion has inspired over 80 journalists around Australia to volunteer their time and minds to generate articles and videos that encapsulate emotion, heart and truehuman spirit.

OWT creates news that can make your day, make you reconsider your perspective on life and make you think about the world around you and your role within it.

“Such news could have the potential to inspire, and if one person connects with the website and thinks to themselves, ‘Wow,I could make a difference’, then that person’s mind is changed, and the flow of a new mind set will slowly sweep across society,” said Chris.

The demise of ethical journalism can be correlated with the increasingly competitive nature of global business. Rupert Murdoch has proved that being driven by greed places a power in the wrong hands, which has leads to over sensationalised news and in the most recent, News of the World case, defying the law.

Mike and Chris acknowledge the magnitude of striving to compete with Murdoch. However, in a true reflection of their robust ambition and positive attitudes, they reinforce the fact that Adelaide is where Murdoch launched hisempire, so why can’t they, (albeit in a very different fashion).

“By being not for profit, we illustrate that the media does not have to be about making money, and with that comes a sense of freedom in journalism, the ability to tell the stories you care for, the truth, unrestricted ideals and a chancefor change,” said Chris.

Even their office is a revelation! Situated off Rundle Street, OWT staff and volunteers are able to draw further inspiration form the art work around them in the world’s first news gallery. A space chosen by Mike and Chris due to its character and proximity to the heart of theCBD’s colourful East End.

Our World Today is a huge stepping stone in altering society’s view on journalists, the quality of information that they present and the ability for the truth to be accepted for what it is, and it isso inspiring to know that it is starting right herein South Australia.

“I think society is sick of the image of itself that the media reflects, but with nothing else out there it is hard for anyone to make the change - well not anymore, there is an alternative,” said Chris.

“Of course it has been a gamble, and with something like this not everything is going to go to plan, but when you are as passionate about something as we are, there is nothing that can stand in our way,” said Mike.

“Cambodia! You want to go to Cambodia?! But that’s so dangerous!”

That was one reaction when I first told my friends and family that I wanted to go and live in Cambodia for a semester. Many were either confused as to why I could not just undertake a ‘normal exchange’.

By ‘normal’ I mean the sort of exchange where I go and study in a country like Canada for a semester.

Although tempting, I didn’t believe that walking into another Western country would really allow me to gain another perspective on the world.

So far my experiences in Cambodia have certainly allowed me to gain a new impression of the world we live in.

Cambodia is safe and more developed than many would first realise. However, under Cambodia’s serene and gently demeanour lurks a dark and tragic past, fraught with sadness and blood. In 1975 the oppressive Khmer Rouge took control of the country, forcing millions of people to relocate from cities like Phnom Penh and Siem Reapto rural areas.

The country shut itself off to the rest of the world forcing anyone who was not Cambodian to leave.

Cambodia:More than

meets the eye

SIONNIE KELLY

During this time the people of Cambodia were left to work in the rice fields, the Khmer Rouge aimed to usher in a new period of power and enlightenment by forcing the country back to the beginning of time, when sewing fields and working the land together were the main occupations of life.

Poor living conditions and starvation at the hands of a despotic regime saw the deaths of millions. Families were wiped out, children left to survive on their own. If you wore glasses or had previously worked for the government you and your family were put to death. After all why leave any survivors who could seek revenge?

Blood seeped into the ground; the killing fields, where people were taken after facing the S-21 torture centre, rang with the screams and cries of children, at one point seeing up to 300 executions per day. It was not until 1979 that Vietnamese troops entered Cambodia and overthrewthe Khmer Rouge.

However, this was not the end for Cambodia; it would now have to struggle through years of unrest, civil war and its need to rejoin the world.

Although Cambodia’s recent history is fraught with despair, if you were not aware of the atrocities that had been committed you would never believe them to betrue based on the happy demeanour ofthe people.

Cambodia:More than

meets the eye


As you walk down the streets of Cambodia you are greeted with children saying hello and waving, adults asking you how you are going, and drivers on motorcycles that pull carriages, called tuk tuks, insisting that you should not walk anywhere.

Life in Southeast Asia is relaxed and laid back, time does not exist and if it does I have never seen it taken seriously.

It is not uncommon to walk outside in the afternoon and see children asleep in hammocks on the streets. Many adults chose to sleep during the afternoon too. It is always frustrating to be in need of a tuk tuk driver and find that they would continue to sleep rather than drive you anywhere.Everything about this country exists on a different plain, in many ways it is like going back in time, the fashions are reminiscent of the 1970s and the cities are less hectic.

The food in this country is also an experience, sometimes being amazing and other times just down right scary.

I spend most of my time wondering what I am eating and praying that I will be ok. The first time I tried deep fried frog’s legs I was a bit hesitant but as it turns out they really are very nice to eat. Here is an overused comparison: they taste like chicken. They really do though.

On of the best things about this country is the food, if I ever get back to Australia I will suffer culture shock when I have to pay for food. Here a decent meal can be $3, an expensive meal is $6.

My concept of money has become so twisted that occasionally I look at a menu and think “Wow $4! That’s rather expensive!”

Because of cheap food and tuk tuks I am becoming increasingly lazy; I now seek the opportunity to exercise like my life depends on it.It is funny how your impression of the world changes when you are living in a country that is the reverse of your own.

But where westerners can never have enough time or money, Southeast Asia has ample time and is perhaps more conscious of their spending habits.

I have lived here for two months and I have seen both tragic and enlightening moments. A little boy getting excited when I let him have the rest of my pizza on a beach in Sihanoukville. Then a completely different boy thrilled to have received full marks on an English spelling test.

Sometimes it is easy to overlook and even ignore what is right in front of you, the key is to not try so hard to see what you want to see but try only to piece together what should be obvious in the first place. Cambodia is not what it seems; it is complex and obvious, and amazing in its perseverance.

Procrasti-BakingELISE FANTIN

It’s the week before exams and you know you have a tonne of study to do but you can’t get motivated to start. So what doyou turn to keep the guilts away?

Procrasti-baking. That’s right, procrastinating by baking.

A friend recently informed me I suffer from this condition and I immediately laughed at her. Are you serious and is that even a word? But a quick Google search clarified it was and then it hit me. She was right.

No longer is watching an entire DVD series or stalking people on Facebook a sufficient distraction, I must bake things from scratch.

I’m not sure why. I’m not even hungry,but I think pounding dough, cracking eggs and violently mixing batters have therapeutic benefits.

Plus at the end you can admire your finished product and a sense of achievement overwhelms you.

You have actually done something today, besides printing off lecture slides, colour coding folders and revising topics you already know.

But be warned this new form of procrastination does not come withoutits challenges.

During last semester’s exam season, thinking I was Australia’s next MasterchefI was perhaps a little too ambitious. Let’s just say the delicate French dessert I triedto whip up did not end well.

Therefore, in times of high stress I recommend sticking to the basics like scones or cupcakes because you don’t need the disappointment of a baking disaster to exacerbate your pre-exam“I’m going to fail” stress.

So the point of this article, if you fall in this trap (procrasti-baking or procrastinating in general) every time exams come around you’re not alone. And if you don’t well… good for you.

But maybe after reading this, procrasti-baking might just become your friend because who doesn’t like coming home to freshly baked treats?

And if you’re sick of the same old pre-exam routine here is one of my fave procrasti- baking recipes, lemonade scones, that might just get you on the bandwagon.


Ingredients:3 ½ cups self-raising flour1/3 cup caster sugar½ cup sultanas (optional)250ml thickened cream250ml lemonadeMilk to brush withJam to serve with

Method:1. Preheat oven to 180˚c.2. In a bowl sift the flour and then stir in all other dry ingredients.3. Make a well in the middle and add all wet ingredients, mix using a wooden spoon.4. Once well mixed use your hands to bring the dough together and knead lightly.5. On a lightly floured surface mould dough out so it is 4cm thick.

6. Use a round cookie cutter or glass to pressout scones.7. Place on a tray lined with baking paper leaving a small gap between each one and lightly brush scones with milk.8. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes or until a lovely golden colour.9. Serve with jam and cream and enjoy!(Makes about 8-10 large scones)

Hot tip: No matter how stressed you are don’t knead the dough too much or you will end up with rocks/paper weights your choice.

Happy revising and in the future I will write an article on how to counteract the weight gain caused by this method of procrastination.

December 2010 - January 2011 -Queensland and Victorian floodsIt’s fair to say that in 2011 Australia had more than its share of natural disasters.The weeks of footage of gushing water were overwhelming, yet the aftermath exposed the greatest side of Australian- mate-ship, boundless charity andgenuine camaraderie.

February 11th - Egyptian presidentHosni Mubarak resignsThe Egyptian revolution was an inspiring start for 2011. Sparked by riots in Tunisia and thirty years of absolute dictatorship,the Egyptian revolution was the first successful uprising in the Arab Spring. Egyptians thirsty for change took to Twitter and the streets until Mubarak resigned.

March 11th - Japanese earthquakeSix months after the Tohoko earthquake and tsunami hit the Japanese coast, 20,000 are dead or missing and the overall economic cost is set to be the highest inthe history of natural disasters.

April 29th - The Royal WeddingIt’s common knowledge that when the world is a bit shit, English royals get married. England can now lay claim to having produced the biggest show of ostentatious wealth in a long time. Thanks to them, in 2021 we can look at our cabinets of Willz’n’Kate memorabilia and wonderwhy we ever cared.

SIAN CAIN

The biggestnews of 2011

May 2nd - Osama bin Laden’s deathSuch big news, it stopped Royal Wedding coverage for like a whole week.

June 13th - Greece and the Euro-debt crisisThough Greece’s debt crisis has lasted much older than a couple of months, much of the protesting started on June 13th when Greek’s credit rating dropped to the lowest possible rating. Still, let’s face it; a lot of the problems seem to stem from the fact Greece can no longer retire at stupid ages and take three-hour naps in the afternoon.

July 9th - South Sudan secedes fromNorth Sudan99.9% of Sudanese voted in support of secession in January, but when the process was finalized in July, it was a true joy to behold such positivity and hope in the world’s youngest nation.

August 22nd - The National Transitional Committee (NTC) wins Tripoli fromColonel GaddafiMany of the news outlets around the world abandoned the Libyan conflict around two months in; it was not as quick as Egypt nor as tech savvy. Yet after six months of constant gun battles, Libyan rebel civilians fought and took the capital from Gaddafi and the worlds eyes turned back to behold 2011’s greatest underdog story.

September 5th - India and Bangladeshend their border disputeBoth countries signed an agreement to end their 40-year long dispute over where each country ends and begins. This deal affects approximately 7000 acres of land and 51,000 people, who under the agreement can either remain where they are or moveto whichever country they prefer.

The idea of picking only FIVE albums that sum up 2011 in music is ridiculously difficult. Stuff the 4500 word research paper that I should have already written, this is what is giving me a headache right now. So know this is by no means a definitive list, and I will most likely have changed my mind by tomorrow morning.

5. ‘This Modern Glitch’ – The WombatsThe Wombats have always been shameless fun, the type of music you dance around your bedroom to and their sophomore effort managed to reach the same highs. What really surprised me was within all the radio-friendly indie-pop was a poignant gem of Anti-D, most definitely the highlight.

4. ‘Making Mirrors’ – Gotye‘What, only number four?’ I hear some of you gasp. Well, four is quite an honour still. This record is without doubt a stroke of genius, deep and thought provoking at times and a pleasure to listen to at others. I commend the masses for embracing this one and making Gotye a mainstream success.

3. ‘Velociraptor’ – KasabianIt took about one listen to realise that this album would be right up there as one of the best of 2011. This record sounds so truly epic that it could battle with the titular dinosaurs, while still having that distinct Kasabian sound. I think the only thing left to say is bring on Big Day Out 2012!

Best of 2011:Albums

2. ‘Nine Types of Light ‘– TV on the RadioTV on the Radio are one of the most unique bands out there in the indie scene, mixing rock with funk to reach a sound that is deep while still ridiculously fun. While Dear Science will probably always be their musical masterpiece this album sits right up there alongside it.

1. ‘Torches’ – Foster the PeopleWhile be no means perfect, THIS is the infectious album I keep going back to time and time again. Foster the People burst onto the scene late last year with such gusto that it’s hard not to get swept up in the extreme catchiness. Helena Beat still feels as fresh and crazy as it did back in January!

The top five fiction books of 2011:

‘1Q84’ by Haruki MurakamiIt is Japan, 1984. Aomame is in a taxi, trapped in a traffic jam and in a rush to get to an appointment. The taxi driver offers her two options; stay in the taxi and be late, or get out the taxi and get there on time, but her life will be changed forever. Meanwhile, Tengo is a failing novelist who is offeredthe opportunity to re-write a manuscriptand pass it off as the masterpiece of a17-year-old girl.

As I work in a bookstore and am a huge Murakami fan, I have been lucky enough to read 1Q84 before it is published in English on the 15th of October. I am going torefrain from saying too much, as much of the joy in Murakami’s works comes fromthe surprises.

‘A Dance of Dragons’ byGeorge R.R MartinAfter the success of the HBO TV series Game of Thrones, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone in Australia who doesn’t know who George R.R Martin is. The fifth book, A Dance of Dragons, was released in 2011, six years after the previous book. Martin had to win back many disgruntled fanswith Dragons- and he more than succeeded. Though we may be facing another six years for the sixth book, Martin has kindly released the titles of the lasttwo books - The Winds of Winter andA Dream of Spring.

SIAN CAIN

Best of 2011:Books

‘The Sense of an Ending’ byJulian BarnesAll of Julian Barnes’ books are filled black humour, love, longing and memorable, yet incredibly normal characters. The Sense of an Ending is Barnes’ most personal and touching book so far. Tony Webster is left a diary in the will of his childhood best friend, Adrian. As Tony reads it, he is forced to examine his own memories of the same events and whether what he has always considered the truth is a lie.

‘The Pale King’ by David Foster WallaceYou may know who David Foster Wallace is. He is most famous for his dystopian 1000-page long, mind-bend of a novel Infinite Jest. The Pale King is Wallace’s last novel, published posthumously after he killed himself in 2008. Though left unfinished at the time of Wallace’s death, The Pale King was released this year. Set (sometimes)in an American tax office in the eighties,The Pale King is an uncomfortable exploration of the human condition andthe darkness boredom brings.

‘The Tiger’s Wife’ by Tea ObrehtTea Obreht is a clever lady. At just 25, she is the youngest person ever to win the Orange Prize and be named on the New Yorkers ‘Top 20 Writers Under 40’ list. Obreht has a beautifully descriptive lexical technique, giving the tale’s backdrop- the Balkans- an almost magical feel. The Tiger’s Wife is a dizzying story about memories and family, story telling and history.

You might be thinking to yourself, isn’t it a bit early for a top 5 films list of 2011? Yes, it is true; it is a tad early for a true top 5 list for 2011, but hey, they are fun to do, and you can never have too many lists. Of course, there are a few unfortunate consequences to compiling this list prematurely, i.e.,Break Dawn Part 1 cannot be considered, but that is a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

With that little ramble behind us, I now present you with the Top 5 films of 2011… So far.

5. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Director: David Yates.Harry Potter fans rejoice! The 8th, and final, instalment of the pop cultural phenomenon has capped of the franchise with the bang it richly deserved. Give Alan Rickman an Oscar already!!!!!

4. Beginners. Director: Mike Mills.Ewan McGregor, Christopher Plummer and Mélanie Laurent all shine in Mike Mill’s semi-autobiographical film about the coming together of two lost souls. A truly touching experience.

3. Super 8. Director: J.J. Abrams.With Super 8, J.J. Abrams continues his love affair with Steven Spielberg. This time working with the master himself (Spielberg was producer); Abrams has crafted a film that is an ode to the Spielberg films of the 80s. Filled with a child like sense ofwonder and many nods to the films that

NICK DESCALZI

Best of 2011:Films

have inspired it, Super 8 is a wonderful cinematic experience.

2. True Grit. Director: Ethan Coen andJoel Coen.True Grit is Glorious to look at, packed with the trademark Coen Brother’s wit, and contains a tour de force performance from its young star, Hailee Steinfeld. With their latest production The Coen Brothers have achieved three things, submitted a reminder of why remakes are not always such a bad thing, given new life to what many film experts have described as a dying genre, and ultimately, have made one of their finest films.

1. Black Swan. Director: Darren Aronofsky.Darren Aronofdsky’s masterpiece is a slow burn psychological thriller that gets underneath your skin, and completely immerses you in a twisted nightmarish world, as seen through the eyes of ballet dancer Nina (the exceptional, Natalie Portman). At its core, it’s a film about the sexual awakening of Nina and all the insanity that it unleashes. The whole thing culminates in a final act that is operatic, horrifying, harrowing, upliftingand heartbreaking.

Honourable Mentions: Horrible Bosses, Scream 4, The Women on the 6th Floor, 127 Hours, Blue Valentine.

If you haven’t seen anyone of these films mentioned, check them out now! If you can’t get your hands on a copy of one of them, than just dust off your copy of It’s a Wonderful Life, and watch it for the 87th time. Have a nice summer.

I cannot believe this year, and this experience, are coming to an end. I never expected this magazine to be such a rewarding, challenging and enjoyable experience.

At our first interview, back in December 2010, I met these two lovely people, Jordan and Laura. Now, nearly a year later, we sit here in our office and crack each other up with jokes, stories and the odd hilarious youtube video.

It’s clichéd to say that this has been such a wonderful experience, but it REALLY HAS! I’ve enjoyed every moment, and met some pretty awesome people along the way. All I can really say is THANK YOU for making this an amazing experience for me!

Laura Pietrobon, Chief of Staff

I have had an amazing time helping to create this lovely little magazine! Thank you to all the amazing contributors who put up with my endless emails and hassling, and submitted such quality content! You guys have had a big part in making a better magazine.

I’ll miss working with you all next year!!! Jess and Jordan, thank goodness you two are such fantastic, photogenic people, because otherwise the year would have been a complete disaster!!!

I will miss all the larks we had in our office (the office!!) and I wish you all the best! Next year will be my final year, and it will have a tough job living up to this one. Au revoir one and all, and stay groovy!

Jordan Archer, Head Editor

Wow, what a year! Making this magazine has been challenging and rewarding, and I feel incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved. What I will miss the most are the times spent with Laura and Jess, especially dressing up for our crazy photos!

I don’t think we could have gotten along better, and I’d like to thank them both for making this job so easy! As I stare in the face of impending graduation, this experience will always be a highlight of my uni career.

Anyway, it’s time to head for greener pastures, (ones where I’ll receive less emails), so thank you all for reading this year and FAREWELL!

The Editorial Team would like to thank:

Luke Tranter & Newstyle Printing, Mandy Denholm, Aroma, the team at Palace Nova, Sophie Gardner of the State Theatre Company, UniLife President Melissa Davies, UniLife Student Representatives, Keith Rudkin, the staff of UniLife, Sub-Editor Steph Simon, Web Editor Erin Willis, everyone that contributed to the magazine throughout the year, our families, classmates, and all of you who have picked up the mag, making all our hard work worth it!!!
