Blog Number 4 (Georgie)

So it’s a little past 8 and I’m sitting (obviously at a computer) on the lower ground level of the Baillieu. I’ve finally decided to do some work and because I despise early mornings I thought that after my classes from 2-4 today I may as well hunker down in the uni’s largest library. It’s pretty sweet right now, quiet and heaps of free computers, maybe this will be a new study habit for me?
Now, I realize that writing on this blog is hardly productive, but seeing as I’ve been reading about Kate Grenville and Inga Clendinnen since a bit before 5, I feel I deserve to let my brain rest for a moment.
Note: I would recommend that you never read ‘The Secret River’ by Kate Grenville. It is exceedingly boring and not worth the two weeks it took me to read it (normally I wouldn’t take that long to read a 334 page book, but that is just how much I disliked it).

Before I left home this morning I was extremely concerned with washing my hair and stuffing my bag with books (not all of them necessary) and so I came to Uni with no food. My solution? A lunch of chicken rice paper rolls (I just discovered them – delicious!) and a semi-dinner consisting of 2 cans of V (or was than 1 of V and 1 of Red Bull? I can’t remember) and a packet of Malteasers (lucky me, the library vending machine gave me 2 packets accidentally so now, if I feel the need for supper I’m prepared). So my lesson from all this? Bring food to last the day I plan on spending at uni!!!

Well, that’s it for me tonight. The clock just ticked over to 8:22 and I think I should get something down for my essay. Have a good night (or day, depending).

Oh, and I was pretty excited tonight when I found out what this beeping noise I kept hearing in the library was. The printing card going in the thinggy when you print stuff from the computers! Cheap thrills I spose…
