3. A girl.
We've a lot in common, but when we last met she was worried as her father was taken ill, now she's not been in class for 2 weeks.

Draw your own conlcusions, vis a vie what I think of her and the probable cause of absence.

8. No can do, the phone book will list her parents names.
And this is Sydney, and I don't even know what area she is in! (Sydney has 4 million people in it btw)

21. if you REALLY wanted to...(remember now, I know how smart
you are) you could get her number...you say 4 million like it's a big number. Hell, that is nothing compared to a brazillion and you know it!!!

NOw then NO EXCUSES...find her number and call her. Ask about her father. Show your concern. Do not be afraid to let her know that you care.

wildhorses will shut up now...

23. No can do, the point of 4 mil is that there phone books are area
specific to the point where I cannot find even a list of numbers without knowing her area, but if I had that list I would gladly call through 200 numbers, as a rfiend of course. :);););)

25. is there no one that you know of that has her number...
surely, you have some friends in common? You are not the only person in the world that knows this Naomi. You have classmates. Who is her best gf?

I know...I know...I said I would shut up. I lied. Sue me.

29. Nope, I don't actually know anyone from her group.
And what is more, this is first semester here - no-one has known anyone else long anough to have numbers, though some will have extros if I found someone from the right tute - whic is impossible - and I doubt if there was any trouble she would take the time to chack her extro anyway.

btw, extro = official university email account.

31. *ahem* I SAID, I don't know any of her friends, not any of her friends,
friends are unknown to me, do not know her friends, if I saw her friends I would not recognise them, I have not met her friends I do not know her friends they do not know me they would not recognise me because we have never met.

Comprehend? I do not know any of her friends.

Everytime you have seen Naomi, she has been alone? You have NO classes with her? How on earth did you meet her to begin?

44. I am actually studying a Bachelor of Science, and in this university,
psych is strictly a science, so it is part of my course.

Psych1001 gives you a basic grounding in neuroscience, personality theory, abnormal psychology, subject matter and methodology of psychology, social psychology, statistics and research in psychology & applied psychology, seven subjects in total.

2. Do you know where she tends to hang-out?
If so you could engineer an "accidental" meeting.

Best of luck with the enterprise, I would offer to pin some parsley to my lapel as a symbol of good luck - but then I'd look like a total eejit.

9. Can you get her number from an official at school?



Surely they must have it.


Or if they won't give it to you, perhaps they will relay a message from you to her with your phone number and a brief note of concern.

11. Heeeeeeeeell no, that would be direct contravention of privacy,
there is no way they would give it to me.

They do not run a service to students with the capability to send messages unless I knew her extro, which I don't.

12. I am not sure what you mean by honey, but sort of wellish,
we only really got to see each other 3 times a week, but we were in the middle of trying to schedule some more ;). She has not yet moved out of her dad's place - she turned 18 all of 3 days ago, and it is waaaay to expensive to move out in Sydney - unless you can get uni accomodation like me :). (I'm from the country, so that opens doors in terms of trying to get uni accomodation)

Most of my friends still live with their parents... ok about 1/2.

14. End of semester, we met from classes, don't know if she'll be back by then
we don't have each others contact details - but if I have any say in it, the next time we meet she'll have my phone number, difficult to run into one another on such a large campus as Usyd.
