Signing Off (Georgie)

Things I really like about uni:

– I can hand out at the pub with friends before and after class
– Meeting new friends! Which I was originally a bit worried about.
– South Lawn
– The toilet graffiti! I love the ones on the walls in the basement and on the 1st level of the Baillieu the best.
– Studying interesting subjects, and not being restricted in the subjects I get to choose.
– Being able to skip class without any repercussion, what a change from high school.
– Lygon St
– Brunswick St (the Vegie Bar and the 2nd hand book store across the road from it are my favourite spots).
– Being able to pick whether I do exams or not.
– Being at uni only 2 days was good because I got to work a lot, but I think next semester I’ll just aim to make it 3, because I do love uni!
– My creative writing tutes (we got food in them)
– The union Lounge
– The student computing center in Union House, I always got a comp!
– Being close to the city center.

Things I wasn’t too hot about:

– The 50 minute bus ride it takes me to get in
– Having to wear different clothes each day.There was a plus about having a uniform at school.
– As much as I liked my subjects, assessment is still a drag.
– Meeting people once, having a chat and never seeing them again.
– Having to go into uni to hand in my essays.
– being the butt of many jokes about arts students.
– Not being the smartest person in the class, because most people at Melbourne were the smartest people in their class. But being surrounded by some brilliant people is pretty awesome.
