* On the 29th of August, 1999 the Victorian Public transport system was privatised.

- Bayside Trains, Swanston Trams and V/Line Pass were franchised to National Express.
- Hillside Trains were franchised to Melbourne Transport Limited.
- Yarra Trams were franchised to Metro Link.

Privatisation Picture

Isn't it all fun?? Ahhhh! *runs away screaming* It's so difficult to come up with the right stuff- in the National Library - 1. You can't loan anything out
2. Everything come up from the 'stacks' - the underground
holding systems. And that can take up to 45 minutes!

So of course - it takes FOREVER to get anything remotely relevant to your research/assignment topic. What's worse, this report is entirely National Library based. X P! Gag me! *sigh* This is my second day here, and I still haven't found what I need. Once I've gotten all I can from the book resources - like the dates of the privatisation of the various sectors of Australia's Railroad systems (feee! Trains! >_ so cool!) I'll be heading down the the newspaper reading rooms - only to get nausious, mind you, from those blasted micofilm readers. ..... ............ ......O.o'...... .......... .... *feels dizzy* I hated them last time. Still do mind you.

But asides from that things are ok. I have a long list of stuff to do tomorrow -

* 1. Write a 5 min presentation of Media Audiences
* 2. Wash BoB
* 3. Go to the National Library - AGAIN!!! @.@'
* 4. Go to work

*sigh* Easy as. Not a problem... Sure thing!

Gah... And I really have to do more work on my C. and M.R. unit.

* 5. Read C. and M.R. stuff - esp. that Lecture commentary. And the other two too.


Lots of work. I think I'll have to get up early - like at 9:00 am! *gasp- shock-- horror!*

O - and no. five

* 5. Get to Koorong! (and convince Mum to drive me... *looks sneaky* -_- ....)

There! That really is everything I have to do tomorrow!
