Yeah, agree 100% on the moto collar with shirt. I do like the look of the work jacket, but think the length would be a problem.

Looks like I have to keep hunting.

[Tyro1]

I dont think the length of the work jacket will be a problem, although it makes it a very casual jacket.

Maybe I'll let you know in a few days

[DJI]

haha, we need a fresh waywt from you when it arrives . what colour T?

[Tyro1]

haha, we need a fresh waywt from you when it arrives . what colour T?

[jcotteri]

haha..

yeh D! estalks.. but i don't mind. All for the love of jawnz.. speaking of which when does this rudd check come through... i want some cash!

lol

do you have to apply for it? I have no idea as i have been over here for so long

[DJI]

haha, "if the colour isn't listed chances are it's black"

kevs free money either gets deposited into your bank account or as a cheque in the mail, depends how you received your tax return last year. "First payments arrive in bank accounts on Wednesday 8 April 2009 and in letter boxes on Thursday 9 April 2009. Payments will be made progressively through to 16 May 2009. Please be patient, we will pay you automatically if you are eligible.". hope I'm in the first lot, purchased too much lately haha.

[jcotteri]

thanks D! hmm i might not get this until i come home.. unlucky..

i didn't do my tax last year..hmm

[wept]

hey DJI this will sound odd but ill ask anyway.

[DJI]

[mrip]

does Departures And Arrivals have the new raf x doc martens?

how much are they?

thanks

[wept]

i have never been overseas and i feel i need to do so. i dont want to go into the nitty gritty but i suffer depression and feel i need to get out and expand my mind by meeting new people and seeing new things. I just feel trapped.

im really down atm and i cant seem to shake it as there is nothing in the future im looking forward to. i think going overseas will help in someway.

[jcotteri]

interesting but you should keep that to pm

edit: sorry mrip cant help you there.. no idea.. but i haven't heard of nay Australian stockists for those collab docs

[wept]

your prob right jcotteri, but i cant be fucked doing so. ill delete it later if i wish.

i dont know if it helps but i think www.oki-ni.com has the raf x docs

[ben_253]

hey guys,

i am moving to melbourne early next year and want to start uni down there. so i was wondering what are the best uni's/colleges are for studying art?

replies much appreciated

benno

[wept]

can u be more specific ben? what art are you interested in studying; digital art, architecture, painting?

[DJI]

pmed you wept

mrip I've lived in melbourne all my life and afaik departures and arrivals doesn't actually exist, sorry to disappoint man.

ben melbourne uni has the best rep for arts in melbourne, but as wept said it depend what field you're interested in.

[wept]

hey DJI does melb uni have a good digital art department. im familier with caulfield monash but not melb uni?

[DJI]

not really sure tbh. I know rmit has a good digital arts department, a few friends have done their bachelors there.

[home]

mu has the best rep for arts. but art.. art, well, that's a whole other story.

[Tyro1]

The important information: Melbourne uni has prestiege etc, plus it's the closest thing you'll get to a US style university. it's fairly conservative and in a good location.

Rmit has cool hipsters as well as los of wanna be hipsters. It's in the CBD so transport and amenities are sorted.

Swinburn has hipsters too. Glenferrie or prahran are both ok areas.

Caufield - I don't even know where the fuck this is?

Monash is a pretty well rounded place, but you in a shit location.

Vic uni - is this the one in footscray?

Deakin - it's like a wartered down monash.

[fenrost]

i did my bachelor of arts in multimedia at rmit... fashion/multimedia/3ds/sound main building is at carlton, beside draculas. graphic design/advertising is at swanston i reckon.

most of the lecturers i had was part timers and they are all still working in the creative industries.

i believe most of the softwares and computers @ rmit are constantly updated to the latest. so definitely a good thing.

i have heard from 2 of my friends from melb u, one in engineering and another in architecture. apparently, their lecturers always stress that rmit students are much favorable in the australian creative industry because melbourne u are heavily invested in theories whilst rmit are more industrially driven.

however, melb u are more internationally recognized, but definitely in medicine and arts in philosophy etc.

[ben_253]

wow thanks guys for all the quick replies!

i want to study photography and art theory...

seems like m.u is the place to be at?

[home]

^ no. i'd say rmit for that.

[Pandemonium]

ya bitch ya.

there is no fine art faculty in flippin melbourne university.

[melvin7]

i wanna go to melb this year if possible. havent been there for ages.. last time i was there was like 2003-2004.. and that was for a cs comp LOL

anyways... just an updates on the ann d boots.. cobbler cant do anything to it and ive tried wearing them around the house - seriously stops my blood circulation. so ill have to sell it ... i did a waywt before i went to uni but i took them off after 5 mins

[034936]

thats too bad man. shit fucking sucks.

i havnt been to melbourne for a long time either (went once a maybe 4 or 5 years ago).

[home]

^ why? domestic flights b so cheep.

and damn, splurged on a jazz bass today - rick leather might have to sit on the back-burner for a while..

[TTT]

went to melbourne about 3 weeks ago got bored quite easily. Can check out all the major (ie. assin, CM, EM etc etc) stores in a day or so. Depends what your heading there for? If its shopping, pretty sure you'd be able to source most of it in sydney melv. Unless you want some CCP or something? Come to perth instead

[Pandemonium]

TTT gtfo this thread.

srsly.

flippin oath we don't need shittalkers like you.

[jcotteri]

＾. ＾hahah

i don't know what you mean, took me three days to get around Melbourne.

Your forgetting Nom *d, Mjolk, etc etc

There are so many places in Melbourne and i didn't even make it to Eastern Market. Some how i didn't know that place existed at the time.. not sure how i missed it.. but anyway
