hehe Thanks guys
What do you do Becks? It's kinda what my degree is in, if that is possible. I have a degree in Political Science and Religious Studies and am now doing International Relations for honours, but really it all swings towards Muslim Extremists Trying to figure out a new research topic to do now... too many things to choose!!!

| If you want any information on Timor or some other countries - one of my mates works for the U.N and was just in E.T doing...something,. Not quite sure what the job involves. He loves talking about it all though and would be willing to share if you or Becs are interested Nikki. |

I'll find out more today at the lecture. All I remember the lecturer saying on the Monday lecture is that our second assignment is one terrorism. Its for my psych paper. I call it my people psych paper as it doesn't go all medical in this paper. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

At a graduation ceremony I worked at one of the guest speakers said he was a C's gets degrees person, and now does speakings at heap of grads just to let people know that, if you plod along with your studies you still get the same degree as the person who got straight A's. The only difference is they probably want to go onto further study. It was kinda nice to hear from someone who was asked to be the guest speaker to say those things. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Haha Aimee. Shoosh. Not a lot of job prospects with my degree.
Becks... Ooooo the psychology behind terrorism is very interesting. I was skimming through a few papers the other day. I might be asking you about stuff
Decided on my new research assignment... am going to look into the extremist support for Hamas in Palestine. Now they have gone all straight and political, where are the militants gonna go? Will find out and report back

Yay on the A Nikki!
Maybe the Hamas militants will defect to the opposition - the Israelis still seem to have pretty strong militant tendencies... -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

Nikki, I tried to send you a PM, but it logged me off. Let me know if you got it. If not i'll send it to you again. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

No PM Becks
Roksana... well my degree is Religious Studies so effectively I should know a bit about the religion. Hahahahah. I really know nothing. Mind you, don't feel as if I know anything about politics either so I suppose it's balanced
My new teacher chick is an Iranian PhD student. She was there through the revolution and post-revolution. Was teaching at a university over there and got in trouble for researching into the politics surrounding oil so if she goes back she gets in big trouble. (I now idolise her if you can't tell) Anywayyyy... finally learning about Islam from a Muslim. I think I've learnt more about the religion in the last two weeks than I have in my entire degree
