  1. Audition Experience/Expectations

    August – the time of when applications open to apply for music courses. The time when you get anxious of applying. The time when things get intense. Oh, Nicole remembers.  YES! It is that time of the year! Future first year/transfer music students, here me out! Auditions can be nerve whacking, and that’s okay! If […]

  2. Leave of absence

    Taking a leave of absence from University can happen for many reasons. In O-Week, I met a girl who had taken a year off to travel around South America and she said that it was the best thing that she ever did! However, I never considered I would do the same. One week ago I […]

  3. Choosing Your Breadth/Elective Subjects

    Throughout my first semester of uni, I’ve been hearing students saying, “what is the most bulgiest/elective subject for breadth?” or “I’m doing a bulge subject/elective, because I want things to be easy.” That’s a fair enough statement, that you’d like to do a bulge subject (easy, light weighted subject) to have a break. But have […]

  4. "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 […]

Why did I choose The University of Melbourne? It’s […]

  7. 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 […]

  8. Yes, a first year blogger by the name of Adi does still exist (Adi)

    A full semester has past and I have regrettably posted a single blog post. Though I do have countless excuses no amount of them could rightly justify why this is so. Nonetheless I shall go ahead and excuse myself. The first and foremost reason is my first semester has been the opposite of what I […]

  9. I'm nearly a third of the way through my degree and that terrifies me quite a bit. (Victoria)

    I read a lot of fanfiction. Like, a lot. Like at least six since lunchtime. I’ve been reading it for years and I’ve developed such perfect headcanons for my ships that I know exactly what to look for to make me happy. One of my favourites is academia!Merthur. Merlin and Arthur meet through the university […]

  10. Semester two begins – with sunshine and a blue sky (Simone)

    Somehow we’re back at uni again! I swear I didn’t live through a whole 5 weeks of holidays. There isn’t much proof of my holidaying – my bedroom is probably just as messy as it was before (that was probably expected, though) and I’m not more ‘rested’ or relaxed (a holiday bedtime of 1am probably […]
