UTS LAW FACULTY - Betty Likes This.
Disclaimer: if you intend to pursue a tertiary education in UTS Law, please stop reading now for the good of the nation (and my personal safety).

If people thought 4U motion and Inception were
mindfucks, then wait till they tour the UTS Law department.
I must admit, I was completely and utterly mind-blown by its "world class" quality of education and excellence. If it wasn't for that coffee I drank this morning, I would've collapsed into a
UTS-induced coma by now. You see, UTS has a myriad of virtues which I cannot afford to pass (as propagated by the Dean and the students alike):
1. UTS's close vicinity to the Haymarket and CHINATOWN! Who cares about the Constitution when you can indulge mindlessly in cheap food? And take a nap while you're at it.
2. UTS's special sleek, high-tech computers that are protected by bulletproof glass and a 4 digit security code. According to my calculator, the chances of Arnold Swarzeneggaralskdjas breaking in is 1/256, which is 0.39% (2 dp). Very nice.
3. UTS's library. Spanning across 2 levels, the library contains alot of books. WOW MIND-BLOWN!!!!!!!!!
4. UTS's
NEW Law building, just like UNSW. It is so new that I could barely recognize it against the backdrop of burgeoning new apartments.
5. UTS's USBs. They are in the shape of a key. Maybe one day I can use it to steal the American Declaration of Independence just like Nicholas Cage in National Treasure.
6. UTS's students. If you ever wanted to surpass Wynston & Jimmy in terms of sarcasm, this uni is definitely for you. Your fellow colleagues will offer you quality guidance, as they frequently adopt phrases such as "Yes... This is very exciting." that are literally dripping with sarcasm.
7. UTS's scholarships for HSC academia, just like Usyd and UNSW. Who doesn't like a party lifestyle subsidized by the uni itself?
8. UTS's practical experience. However, a downside that the Dean/Professor is allergic to this, which is rather puzzling indeed. Nonetheless, UTS prides itself as a "theoretically capable" university, much like Usyd and UNSW.

But you know what? Despite all this, the one thing I really liked about UTS is that it made me realise how I could never settle for anything less. So my message to all you Baulkos is:
If you want something, do everything you can to achieve it - nothing is ever easy. Know that you are perfectly capable, and
NEVER SETTLE!!
:)
And as for me? I think I'm genuinely considering Usyd Law. Law turned out to be something markedly different to my previous conceptions and somehow, I think that Law may be the way to go. But who knows, UNSW is next week and maybe Com/Eco will sucessfully deliver a secondary mindfuck. If it's something half as exciting as UTS today, my life will be complete.
See you guys on Monday.
