how cool is having diabetes?

I've been working on the diabetes project for about half a year now, and sometimes i wonder if its really as shit as people make it out to be. Maybe its a really cool disease and people just give it a bad rap, like polio or smallpox. Because like polio you just sat around all day and dont have to do sport and smallpox, well i'm not sure what smallpox would do, i just know that milkmaids got their now undeserved reputation of having good skin from it. But the point is, what if diabetes was so bad, what if diabetes had perks that people genreally over look.
Sure having diabetes means that your internal organs dont like you very much, but it also means that you always pretty fit, your life is a routine so you're easier to find and etc. But theres got to be more positive sides to it. I'm not a diabetic so i dont really know, but i know upside to having your tonsoles removed is icecream, breaking your arm is drawing on the cast, and getting alhtzamimers means that life is like a constant surpise party. So whats the positives of diabetes?

Grad Show

Hopefully people still read this.

This post isnt about PreMajors or Majors, its about finding a place to have our grad show. Since we've been rejected by RMIT first site, we're currently in a situation:

1) we have no venue to host the Grad Show
2) we have no money
3) we have no equipment for the Grad Show
4) we have no Grad Show

So...we need a venue, money, and equipment, anyone know where to get those things?

I know most of you wont really care that much since there was the show last year, but lets consider the content difference between what we had on display last year and what potentialy we could have on display at the end of this year. Its also a nice way for closure on university and the intencity of the 4th year program.
Theres also a key element that isnt ever going to happen again, and that is we're i think the smallest graduating group, which means we can some what treat our grad show as a personal exhibition since theres more space, resources etc given our numbers.

If you know where we can get a space/money/equipment lets talk.
