What:
QUT lolly shop
Where:
Y block on Kelvin Grove campus
When:
Mon-Thurs 8.30am-6pm, Fri 10am-2pm
How much:
depends on how much you buy
With Orientation Week all but over, it is time to start doing some serious thinking about how you are going to:
a) procrastinate like hell until week 11 when you realise you know nothing in any of your courses and begin cramming or
b) (legally) keep yourself buzzed enough to get through all the reading and course work you need to do this semester.
Regardless of your option QUT Student Guild provides the goods. Over on Kelvin Grove campus (yes the old part, not the swanky new Creative Industries precinct) you will find the Guild Lolly Shop. This on-campus institution is the very backbone of the Student Guild itself. It honourably provides the student populous with a much-needed source of sweets to last you through even the most tedious of lectures.
Go in there. Get an assortment of choc honeycombs, snakes, minities, jaffas, sour lollies and jubes. Say hello to the manager Luke. You probably won’t get any lollies for free, but it will be fun to see him wonder why everyone knows who he is.

FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
