There might be alternative plans etc. For those who really wants to go north, grab your friends along, we need around 20 people to form a tour. Everyone is busy after exams but why not take a break and enjoy the Sunset coast, destressing and socialising with fellow uni mates at the same time. Trust me no matter how you guys want to compare, its way better than what we have in Singapore (West coast park) (I doubt you can even see the beach with the amount of construction going on there).

The "Last Lecture."



We all know how lectures at University can sometimes be painfully boring. Some of us may also be guilty of skipping our lectures. I don’t know if you guys have heard of the “Last Lecture” given by a dying professor which has caused quite a stir over the internet in recent months. It is certainly one lecture that you wouldn’t want to skip.

Just a short introdution, Dr Randy Pausch is a married father of three, a very popular professor at Carnegie Mellon University—and he is dying. He is suffering from pancreatic cancer, which he says has returned after surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Doctors say he has only a few months to live.

In September 2007, Randy gave a final lecture to his students at Carnegie Mellon that has since been downloaded more than a million times on the Internet. The topic was on "Achieving childhood dreams—and living your life" and many people have sinced benefited from that lecture.

On October 22, 2007, Pausch appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show where he discussed his situation and recapped his "Last Lecture" for millions of TV viewers.

Go ahead and view the lecture below. It only takes 10mins of your time...

We promised a change in terms of entertainment and a change it was. The organizing committee is very encouraged by the many positive reviews to this semester's Mambo, with some folks even calling it the best Mambo yet... in Perth of course ;)

Thanks for all your support and for just being there and being crazy. Below are some random clips and pictures from the ECU contingent.
