Should I wear my new shoes for a bit before I get them fitted with soles? Or should I get them fitted before I wear them? How much does Evans charge?

Also, how long can I keep a pair of leather shoes for if I hardly wear them? Wanna get a pair of Zegna oxfords though I don't really need hem.

so... you want black military boots or desert boots?

Both actually.

Guys, where can I get black military boots, slim type, not those chunky shit. They don't look good on me as well as erm, desert boots, like Clarks.

Desert boots like these: http://www.onlineshoes.com/productpage.asp?gen=m&pcid=1460

Honestly I figure that after the first week people might change/drop modules and that's when you swoop in to change your timings. You met your course adviser today?

LOL. Pan seriously, your subjects and mods are all fixed, as in, you can't choose others?

What about chicks. =)

Am doing Media Comm and Pol Science at U of Melbourne and, I'm sorry to those who are unlucky, my timetable is so slack. Lots of free space and a whole Friday free! Afternoon lectures mainly so I get to sleep in!!

Yea. Heard all the booze there is free. Booze is cheap in Melbourne as compared to where I came from though. It cost 6-7AUD for a can of 330ml beer. Fashion shows make it more worth if they were dishing out Dom Perignon or something.

Guys, guys. I might possibly be involved in covering Melbourne Spring Fash Week. Behind the scenes and after parties. Anything noteworthy of the events? Or anything to underscore from yesteryear? Both good and bad are fine.

Man. Heard Rocco's isn't gonna be customizing boots anytime soon, not till March I heard.

Wonder if he can customise and make boots like this Visvim one here with laces. Anybody?

Guys, anywhere I can get well-priced Asics running shoes? Are footlocker prices the average or above average?

I know this is rather off topic but what's the price range for Rocco's custom derbys or boots?

Also, where's good for stylish haircuts? I saw a Toni and Guy and Falcone over at Collins Street.

Was at Assin today, boy, the prices are marked up quite a bit. Is Eastern Market more or less that much marked up?

And blimey, I touched down on Friday and the torrid weather literally obliterated me. Is it always like this?

Wha? You planning on jumping into a sleeping bag and hopping into bed during winter?

Quite right I am. Ha. You'll be surprised mate, that some sleeping bags are really comfy.

haha, I wish I had the time for that right now. waking up at 6 to get ready for work and getting home by 5:30-6:00pm leaves me with little motivation though. I'll get back into it when uni starts again though

Where do you gym at? Uni? Which uni do you go to anyway?

That's pretty near University of Melbourne and Barry Street isn't it. So their products are marked down than flagship stores.

Gym. Man. Needa go sign myself up.

Was thinking of North Face because their sleeping bags are really good, not to mention they have lifetime warranty for them. Going to use them instead of getting a quilt so wondering where's the best place to get 'em from. Or for that matter, any street which sells such sleeping bags might be good. Can scout for other brands.

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy some camping gear -- North Face sleeping bags to be exact, which part of Melbourne has all the camping shops together, or has the sweetest deals on North Face stuff so I can score a good deal? Is it Little Bourke Street or somthing? The North Face flagship store is rather pricey.

Any sales in early Feb or end Jan?

MMm

Guys, how much will a pair of plain black leather or canvas high cut converse set me back? And where's the best place to get 'em?

What about North Face goretex/hyvent triclimate jackets? What's the price range?

AND WHEN DOES THE SALE LAST TILLL? Will be there on 29 January man

New around here.

Actually, its USyd > UMelb > UNSW, according to Times Higher Education. Monash is right up there too.

Not that this shit matters, but you had to go and order.

Yes, Times ranked it this way but its the only one that put USyd before UMelbourne.

In the other rankings, it was ANU and UMelb tied.

Thought there was more info on the ground =)

I know we're all about Melbourne here and just to digress.

Is University of Sydney more renown for its academics or University of Melbourne?

Thanks for the insights guys. Feather, what's your expertise?

How do you guys secure an internship man? Does the university -- in my case University of Melbourne -- secure it for you? Also what's the likelihood of getting a job in Journalism/writing upon graduation? Tough times I'm told.

Intend to hunt for Assin and Eastern market in Feb. Do you think sales will still be on? Ha

Does Melbourne have sales periods man? Like when are they?

there are a few northface stores..and lots of places selling that shit anyway.. i think northface has a store on burwood road...mebbe...

Are they horribly marked up?
