Hey there! Transitioning from High School to Uni life has been a huge part of my first year and after Week 8, I feel like I’m really settling into this new world.

"How the heck did I get into Melbourne Uni?" Musician asks. – Nicole
You have no idea how honoured I am to be studying at Melbourne Uni, undertaking Bachelor of Music as a pianist. Apparently, one-third of the applicants only get accepted into Bachelor of Music. ONE-THIRD! HOLY GOD! I will be, and always will be, appreciating what I have now, in the present. I feel that everything […] -
In and Out of Uni – Rochelle
Howdy, I hope everyone has had a great week! Today I’m gonna share 3 things I’ve learnt since stepping into University this year. 1. Seating alone in lectures/tutorials During the first few weeks in uni, you may find out that no one has got the same lectures/tutorials as you. This means you have to make […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/04/23/in-and-out-of-uni

Introvert, extrovert, doesn't matter…
Have you seen the rather hilarious X-Factor video where a contestant sings “extrovert, introvert, doesn’t matter” repeatedly? Besides being entertaining (go watch it…), it’s actually kind of true when you reach University. It doesn’t matter whether you’re shy or outgoing, we’re all in the same boat! I came from a year level of 14 people to […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/04/23/introvert-extrovert-doesnt-matter

Sticky fingers and essays
Studying as a parent is HARD. I knew it would be when I started, but you don’t realise just how difficult it is until you’re in the thick of it. This is how a morning getting ready for uni goes (if I’m super organised and have bags packed the night before). 1. Hit snooze […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/04/21/sticky-fingers-and-essays

A Day in a Musician's Life Part 6 – Nicole
Saturdays. Ahh… I always cherish every outing when my mates, whenever I get a chance to hang out in the weekend. I always have a good day whenever I have an outing, because it’s nothing to do with studying at all. I personally wish I can do this every day, but as you’d all know based […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/04/18/a-day-in-a-musicians-life-part-6-nicole

How I got into the University of Melbourne
I think it’s always worthwhile hearing how other people did things so that you can learn from their mistakes or use their success story, and I am hoping that by hearing my journey you will have some ideas on what you can do before applying for UniMelb! (On a side note: my biggest pet peeve […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/04/18/how-i-got-into-the-university-of-melbourne
