  1. I'm home and everything is wrong. (Victoria)

    So, as you should know, I moved out of home to go to UniMelb, so going home for holidays is one of the things I do. So I got home about an hour ago and have only noticed how different everything is. My parents now have no children at home (I was the seventh and […]

  2. Oppaa! (Simone)

    “Simone? That’s you, yeah? I think they’ve put you on the wrong table,” a girl in a sleek black dress had tapped her red fingernails on the list of names. “There must have been a mix up… I’m so sorry.” I stared at the list of names on my new table, realising suddenly that I […]

  3. Holidays begin!! (Simone)

    The sun is shining, St.Kilda are playing Melbourne in thirty or so minutes (hence will probably win for once!! – touchwood though…), and the assignment-free, exam-free, week of (coffee) drinking, catching up, shopping, dancing?, movie watching, chocolate eating, all beckons. Holidays are upon me, hallelujah!! Winter has never looked so appealing. I know you’re absolutely […]

  4. I have 60 hours to finish (and kind of start) two assessment so why are people talking in the silent study areas?! (Victoria)

    Ohk, I admit, maybe seeing Gatsby yesterday instead of working on my take-home exam for Reason wasn’t the best idea, but knowing how much work I had to do I figured I’d be safe doing it today. Figured I’d trek up to level 3 of Bailieu and spend the day up there doing it. Figured, it’s […]

  5. Exam week is sad. Nuff said. (Simone)

    Taking a pit stop to write for you, here, folks. I lie. My pit stop is procrastination. But you knew that, really, didn’t you! Let’s disguise this post as a much needed ‘break’ from study, rather than a delay in beginning my take home exam for Power, ahem… Found myself a little bit overwhelmed with […]

  6. "At uni, you will have loads of free time, won't have to study, and will spend every night out at bars getting crunk with your new mates", they said (Simone)

    A friend’s dad recently remarked, ‘Oh, you’re doing Arts, pfff! So that means you’re spending every night out at bars getting sloshed!’ Ahem, no, not really! For some reason a lot of people seem to think that uni students, especially Arts, are always out at crazy parties, but I’ve done a mini-survery of my fellow Arts […]

  7. I wish I could afford to procrastibake like I did in high school. (Victoria)

    By which I mean I don’t have he funds; screw what I can afford academically, I’ll still find a way to procrastinate. So here we are in swotvac. My last class was Wednesday so if I was a good student I would be knee-deep in studying right now. But I’m not. I have, however, visited […]

  8. Pre-exam doom: 6 ways to get studying (Simone)

    As we near the chaos and turmoil and cramming of exam/assignment time (if you didn’t realise this already, I’m really sorry to be the one to say that it is week 11, and looking at that exam and essay timetable is now a necessity. Sigh.) I thought a few handy hints on just getting the job […]

  9. Stop- Don't say that it's impossible because I know it's possible. (Victoria)

    It’s Eurovision weekend and I’ve been thinking about the concept of a “Guilty pleasure”. I’ve never felt guilty about things I enjoy. I got home yesterday to find a friend watching Project Runway which he stated was a guilty pleasure. I’m not a fan of the show, but I watch plenty of crappy (read: brilliant) TV […]

  10. My little lightbulb moment (Simone)

    Lately I’ve been pondering my various possibilities and aspirations for the future. God, that sounds deep, hey?! But I promise you, I don’t mean to be corny and write a rambling post declaring myself to have these absolutely marvellous life plans where everything is mapped out – like in those movies where the girl decides […]
