One thing that has me entirely disgruntled at AUSPOL is almost increases to university or research funding declared by anybody >.> |

It's hardly surprising, I'd actually be more surprised if they don't decide to make further cuts to buffer the budget. They're obviously expecting industry and international investors to pay for our tertiary education.

yeah I get that but from what I heard (hope im wrong), they will increased the bar to 8, and that's not for the average, you have to score at least an 8 for every single category (reading, writing, speaking and listening). It's very very hard to score an all 8, If that was the bar when I applied, I'd only pass for speaking and reading haha. It's getting harder to study there too, so not everyone who want to study in Australia could actually get the visa easily (because they see you as a potential immigrant, not to mention the increased of the ridiculous tuition fee as well). the age category is pretty weird too (cant remember the deets, but more or less, it goes like this) if you're from 18-25 you get different points, over 25 but under 30 get different points and if you're over 30, you might as well dont apply. Even if you're 31, you're over 30 meaning you're less productive. Pretty sure they already come up with new regulations nowadays, so what I mentioned above has probably changed as well. Even if you marry a citizen, you have to provide proofs that you're actually have been together with your partner for over 2 years. They wanna know if you two live together, have joined bank accounts, even as ridiculous as asking for many pictures and plane holiday tickets if there are any (just to see if you two are actually doing stuff together), since many have faked marriage for PR I heard many stories from fellow immigrants haha, and during those 3 year wait, I was updated with this stuff. So yeah, Australia defs try to put on hold of the amount of people coming in |

Sounds tough.. haha I sort of know about the marriage dealie because a friend of a close friend of mine was willing to offer any of her girlfriends (incl. myself) $60k to marry him so he could get PR and none of us were game. It's definitely pretty tough to pull one over them now that they're looking for anything that'll give you away. I knew a chick who tried this (but she wasn't v. smart about it) and her "husband" got asked how many tatts she had and he had not a clue. The poor bugger paid her like 80k, which was obviously non-refundable. Of course, I would intend to get to know yulbb very well. But still no marriage equality, which is starting to get downright embarrassing at this stage.

"got asked how many tatts she had and he had not a clue" well holy shit!! oh please, WE all want to know yulbb very well yeah and boohoo on the marriage equality (they acknowledge de-facto relationship tho), hence the macro I posted above haha. I just hope i'll able to return without any dramas and stuff to take care off *prays to soofany * |

I actually think this is partially why it's taken the movement so long to really pick up. People are pretty comfortable as is and they have almost equal rights already so it's predominantly just about getting formally acknowledged. Yes, I hope you make it back soon for some Melbourne coffee edit: btw when you saw d1plo was he dressed like this?

ahhahah I definitely am not a coffee connoisseur, I just go with whatever pleased my taste buds ahhahha you could check out them places I mentioned above, but since you go to RMIT, Sensory Lab and The European are the closest to you. Both are in the CBD, SL is just outside of Myers/DJ (cant remember) and The European (it's actually a fine dining restaurant, but I like the coffee there), is on Spring st. Or if you wanna go somewhere a bit far, go to St Ali in South Melbourne (you can catch a tram from somewhere near Southern Cross st I think), I really like the setting of this place. Also, I heard Proud Mary is very good with coffee, never been there tho and it's in collingwood edit: @BC it was an example of the suit he wore, something similar to that and not an actual pic of Dip

Oh I can't actually see it? I see some goblin type creature in a purple wonka get up Kid, what have you been drinking the entire few months you've been down here? Gin? There's like two cafes on every street corner, it's virtually inescapable. But, like Rexie, I'm no coffee snob.I do like the coffee at The European as well close to Parliament iirc. Manchester Press is also decent and central, I'm sure you've heard of their bagels (I've yet to find a non-awkward way to eat them). My barista friend likes Seven Seeds in Carlton.

No, I'm being completely serious. It's not a matter of any importance though. edit: I can't get over how the dodginess of the venue is directly proportionate to how much they're willing to charge you to dine there in these suburbs. And how the number of days a hipster goes without showering is indicative of the number of available showers in their residence.

lol there are three suburbs along chapel street so any answer is correct right? i just thought you were asking about northern suburbs, which i don't venture to often because it requires me walking i'm personally a fan of the collective and snow pony in the east but in prahran i like oscar cooper (it's not as hip as the first two though) edit: gaga's new song is really growing on me you guyss |

are you originally from Melbourne or you moved there at some point? cus I lived in another state before and the coffee there taste pretty bland and overpriced. Like I said, im not a coffee connoisseur and I can tell the difference, so Melb's coffee taste better for me I have no idea, I just know that whole area is Prahran ahahahaha. You obviously know more about hipsters establishment than I do oh gosh gaga |
