Cake… and the notion of dreaming large (Gianina)
2nd week, 1st sem I am still wondering what is the reason behind the names of my core subjects ( all of which end with the word “Environments”) – is it because the people who made them just want to reiterate that these are affiliated with the Environments degree OR is it because they are lacking […] -
Second year!
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to another year of the blog! (Speaking of blogs, do any of the admins/other bloggers know when we get moved to the Second Year blog?) It’s great to be back on campus again, and so exciting to see new first years and realise how far you’ve come since you were […] -
Signing Off (Georgie)
Things I really like about uni: – I can hand out at the pub with friends before and after class – Meeting new friends! Which I was originally a bit worried about. – South Lawn – The toilet graffiti! I love the ones on the walls in the basement and on the 1st level of […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2007/11/18/signing-off-georgie

I am highly amused (Suzanne)
The alumni website for the university has a list of prominent alumni. Of course, this isn’t an exhaustive catalogue. For an updated list, it tells you, you should go visit the respective Wikipedia page. It even provides the link. Ah, what a brave new world we live in!blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2007/10/25/i-am-highly-amused-suzanne

Con/VCA merger, essay grades, and bread (Suzanne)
So, I got an email from the Dean of the Faculty of Music today, and apparently, the Victorian College of the Arts School of Music is merging with the Faculty of Music at Melbourne University (aka ‘the Con’). Technically, they were both part of the University of Melbourne, but the VCA continued to provide its […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2007/10/24/convca-merger-essay-grades-and-life-suzanne

Attention: socialists, capitalist pigs, dorito eaters, bubble cup drinkers, symphony metal listeners (David)
I went to the group interview as part of the process to become a host for O-week next year. I thoroughly enjoyed the interview and I was leaving, I realised what was different this semester. At the beginning of the year, everybody was excited and receptive to making new friends. However, as the year went […] -

Three months (Georgie)
I’m in a better mood now, I handed in my two essays this morning. All this exam talk is reminding me how happy I am that I’m only doing essay subjects.

On being drained.
You know when you’ve gone through a day in that lethargic mood where you don’t want to do anything, and because you’ve done nothing you feel mopey, and that makes you even more lethargic, and then you go down a self destructive spiral of bum-on-chair and eyes-on-screen? Yeah. That was me today. It’s been so […]
