Ed-titudes

Was sharing this with some friends. Apart from fearing God, here's 10 timeless 'teachings' that I carry with me... haha

1) 'But' is the most cruel word in the English language - Everything before it doesn't mean jack shit eg. 'You are a nice guy but...' or 'I like your idea but...'

2) Would you rather be the face that launches a thousand ships or the face that confronts those thousand ships?

3) A woman who thinks she's smart demands equality; a woman who's really smart doesn't.

4) In the land of the brave, heroes die young.

5) A 90 year old man can stroke a girl's butt and walk away smiling; try that when you are 30.

6) Everyone wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.

7) Every kingdom needs a king and queen; never two kings.

8) Love your woman, or some other bugger will.

9) It's better to ask questions and be stupid for a minute than to keep your mouth shut and be stupid for life.

10) The road to hell is paved with good intentions while the stairway to heaven is fraught with obstacles.

The Tutors

The people who taught us for 2 weeks...



Chris & J, keepers of the puke buckets

All it takes is 30s before them puke buckets come into use


The Running Lab

'Death By Running'

Really... people do really fly off the treadmill here


Biomechanics Lab

'Death By Physics'

Force measurements, electrical activity in muscles, movement analysis, video capture... the 'nightmare' of applied science

Outdoor Lab

'Death By Heat & Flies'

Apparently there are only 3 running tracks in the whole of Perth

... and obviously none are at ECU
