About Me

My photo
I'm like any other uni student. I like clubbing, parties with friends and surfing if I can get a chance. I grew up in Townsville and miss my great friends there, the strand and maggie, but I still get time to have fun in brissie. I'm studying Civil and Construction Engineering at QUT, and I'm finding it a lot more interesting than most people would think. I'm also doing a mining minor at UQ at the same time so that I can work in the mining industry. I hope to work on mine sites once I graduate, because I love the friendliness in small towns, and it's always more fun to brag about being involved in massive projects. Drop me an email at andrea.dale@connect.qut.edu.au if you want to know more :)

Random Blurry Pic



I saw this Ad in a construction magazine in India (remember the prices are in rupees). Thought it was interesting to see the differences in advertising amongst other things. In Australia we tend to be more focussed on the visual side, including photos, artists impressions and especially floor plans (or is that just me?). The construction techniques are very different too. I'm not saying worse or better, just different because they are better suited to India for so many different reasons, like weather, economics, social and community views/opinions/acceptance, religion, availability, etc....

I love seeing how things can be done so differently.
