  1. Week 12 Feels – Nicole

    Congratulations! WE’RE FINISHED WITH SEMESTER ONE! I hope you all had a great semester! I know I had… sort of. It was full of ups and downs, challenges here and there. But it’s okay! I held on through all those long days, and bumps on the way, and got through my day in one piece. […]

  2. Tips for Studying (Muso Edition) – Nicole

    As a musician in first year, things can be hard as assignments gets difficult each time, practising becomes more frequent, studies gets more intense each time, or just basically struggling with everything else. If you’re struggling at the moment, all I could say is, “hang on tight, you’re almost there”. You’re not alone. We’re all on […]

  3. Assignments… (Bella)

    Guys, I just submitted my last assignment for the semester! This is a short post of happiness. Hope everyone’s assignments are now completed, or close to it, and they have been relatively enjoyable, despite being work (and stressful), haha! I’ve found it challenging and interesting tackling the university assignment as a First Year. Definitely still […]

  4. "Don't Worry Be Happy" – Nicole

    “It’s that time of the semester, annnddddd I’m feel that I’m struggling and stressing with uni, or basically with everything else.” On Thursday, I felt a sense of relief – I finally survived uni for this week. Next day (Friday), problems from uni, and rejection of jobs and scholarships started to slap me, and I crawled […]

  5. Is UniMelb disability friendly?

    For the past two weeks I have been on crutches, and it has forced me to consider whether getting around UniMelb is easy for physically disabled people. The short answer is: no. After the first Monday of hobbling back and forth across campus to classes and study areas, I realised that I very rarely see […]

  7. A typical day at uni (Bella)

      So… you might be wondering: what is it like being a first year BA student!? Well, wonder no more, as I am here to tell you! It took me a while to adjust to a new routine at uni. I start and finish at different times each day, and the travel is 6 times […]

  8. Of Mothers and Daughters (Johanna – Mia)

    Some days, it becomes glaringly obvious how much my mother and I differ in our opinions. Okay, a bit of a background: imagine a traditional, almost stereotypical Chinese mother. That means, H1s and nothing less, no dating till after I graduate (which would be, like, after I turn 30 considering I’m planning on doing med […]

  9. Thank goodness for extensions

    Hello? Can anyone hear me? I’m over here, underneath all the research for the Power essay which is due tomorrow and I haven’t started yet. Thank goodness for extensions, hey? My children were all sick last week (nothing serious, just colds, but it meant they needed to be home) which has set off a chain […]

  10. Why showering at Uni is the best

    Don’t judge me just yet. I have showered at Uni Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week, and as I walked in yesterday and reveled in the luxury of having all of the showers to choose from, I began to wonder why the University Sports Centre showers are hardly ever used? I play futsal at Uni and […]
