Back to Sweden Dot Com (Olle)
I am thoroughly confused. Once again. Christmas is coming coming up, and I walk around in shorts. I feel like a red lobster the moment I step outside. It’s times like these, that I hear the word “foreigner” and “tourist” come to mind. There is so much more to learn. I can’t believe it’s almost […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/11/10/back-to-sweden-dot-com-olle

Nothing's as good as a hike to the top: are you sure you're not an arts student? (Olle)
Uni life can be exhaustingg, OK? Every once in a while, you actually have to do a lot of work. Especially, if you think of the non-teaching period as an opportunity to learn something new: namely to go travelling and experience Austalia. So what if my money didn’t get me as far as Darwin this time. Thanks to […] -
A Chicken and a Convenient Untruth (Olle)
What! A month since my last post! How could that be? Oh well, time flies. I’ve been busy. I’ve been doing this play for Mudfest, and it went really well. A nice turn-up. I was a bit afraid of that. Filling a theatre of 390 people for 4 nights. Good luck! Read some great books. […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/08/31/a-chicken-and-a-convenient-untruth

Fear, Take My Hand (Olle)
Cargo slithered across his victim with mortal determination. Attracted to the warmth, he could taste the fear. I froze: a 2 metre olive python was hanging around my neck! I had a deal, I tell myself. My friend would sing karaoke, and I would hold a snake at a reptile centre in Alice Springs. She kept her part of the deal. […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/07/31/fear-take-my-hand-olle

Semester One is Over (Olle)
Semester One is over!!! No more tutes, no more lectures. Only some essays to write and exams to sit… Oh boy, am I desperate to find an outlet for procrastination! So, here I am – First Year at Unimelb Blog. Such an awesome place. You write what you feel like, and you spend time WITHOUT […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/05/31/semester-one-is-over-olle

The Right Ear Advantage (Olle)
Which ear do you use when you pick up a phone? Your answer: right. Why? Because most of the input of the right ear goes to the left hemisphere of the brain. It’s known as “the right ear advantage.” Now that’s knowledge that will take you places. Stay tuned for updates, Olleblogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/05/14/the-right-ear-advantage-olle

"Dhue!" (Olle)
Do you wanna know why there isn’t someone writing in their blogs? It’s called assessment times. Funny, funny indeed. Sorry for my absence, but I’ll get back to you ASAP. I just came back from break and realised how many assignments are due (and yes I didn’t touch my books over Easter, in my country we […] -
"I'll Kill Your Grandchild!" (Olle)
I MADE IT! Eight days in rural Victoria = A trip of a lifetime. Highly recommended to any international student. It’s a great way to get to know the “real” Australia. Go camping and visit your friends in their ‘natural habitat’, for nature it is… I have to admit, it was hard. No Facebook, no […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/04/19/ill-kill-your-grandchild-olle

Swede Off Camping During Easter… (Olle)
It’s official. I’M OFF TO THE BUSH! This is a joke, I’ve never really done bush-walking before (is that even what you call it?) All of a sudden I feel foreign. I’ve only gone camping [sort of once] at the German Rock Festival Rock Am Ring, which doesn’t even count, because I was sharing camp […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/04/09/swede-off-camping-during-easter-olle

Get Over It! (Olle)
I just came back from Run for the Kids. Great fun! =) Apart from the fact we were running short of energy drink. Some people got really pissed at us (read volunteers). Don’t tell me why. OK, they ran 14 kms but still. DO THEY KNOW HOW PRECIOUS WATER IS? Their reactions were like: “Oh, […]
