Smells Like TEAM Spirit (Phoebe)
This week has been a bit of a battle – I’ve had assignments, essay drafts, blog entries (for my cultural studies class) and the most dreaded of all – GROUP PRESENTATION!! DUN-DUN-DUUUUUUN! I’ve never really enjoyed group tasks, especially in high school. It was always so difficult for everyone to agree or even compromise. On […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/09/04/smells-like-team-spirit-phoebe

50 Shades of First Year (Tanika)
I’d love to start this off with something unbelievably witty but alas, I’m a science student (Just kidding! being hilarious is in our genes) There’s something about being a blogger that brings about the pressure of making your online presence seem like the bomb dot com, but considering the only pressure I seem to be […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/09/02/50-shades-of-first-year-tanika

The Ghost of Semester Past (Hiruni)
Hello to everyone whom I have the pleasure to call my first readers! In true first blog post fashion, an introduction of sorts is required before I dispense the sagely wisdom of one who has gone through the turmoils of Semester 1 of their first year at Uni. My name is Hiruni and being a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/09/01/the-ghost-of-semester-past-hiruni

Introduction Post (Yan)
The fact that I hate introductions seems to be a reoccurring theme in my life. Wednesday night, I was at the Welfare Union House sleep-in, and as an ice breaker one of the things that the organisers wanted us to do was the ‘two truths one lie’ thing. For a crowd as small as we […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/09/01/introduction-post-yan

And introducing… (Celyn)
Celyn [sah-leen] n. noun A first-year science student; part-time pharmacy assistant/dispensary technician and part-time student procrastinator. Likes soup way too much. As you can gather, I’m one of the new bloggers! I’m quite the awkward one when it comes to introductions so I’ll make this short and sweet: Chemistry is the bane of my life (and […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/08/31/and-introducing-celyn

The Most Creative Title Ever aka My First Post Wohoo! (Johanna – Mia)
WHOO! My first post! I’m so excited, honoured and frankly, a bit nervous. But before anything else, I would just like to say: (drum-roll please) HELLO WORLD! My name is Johanna, but apparently I’ve got a namesake blogger under “Back for Seconds” (hello other Johanna!), so I’ll go by my nickname of Mia instead. And […] -
'Ello There Mate! (Phoebe)
This is my first blog post and as you might be able to gather, I’m a little nervous. I find it easy to communicate and connect with people I know but the idea that my thoughts and feelings are being read by many is a little daunting; the mind, after all, is our most private […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/08/30/ello-there-mate-phoebe

When life hands you lemons (Adi)
It’s been five weeks into uni and needless to say the assignments have been flowing in: like why do essays insist on not writing themselves? Not to say that I’m not adoring my subjects because I actually am, they have fortunately met my expectations – thank goodness, well except my breadth subject but that’s a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/08/29/when-life-hands-you-lemons-adi

Kenya is like the best country ever (Adi)
I wrote a creative piece for the Globe magazine, a weekly publication at my College and I thought I’d post it here. Enjoy! Our time as undergrads is undeniably a coming of age odyssey that roughly lasts three years. Effectively a stretch where we experience life hence our attempt at maturity. We have the freedom […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/08/24/kenya-is-like-the-best-country-ever-adi

I can't think of a title (Adi)
The flu finally caught up with me so the diligent tone I hope to set this semester has taken a bit of a back seat. Seeing as the bug is going around it was only a matter of time until it caught up with me. It’s my third week into College and all I can […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2014/08/06/i-cant-think-of-a-title-adi
