  1. Not quite Cinderella (Zoë)

    Last night was the Ormond Ball. I don’t want to sound too negative, but basically it was a waste of $60. A ball sounds really sophisiticated and elegant, but it was just a night at a club, which really isn’t my thing. If I’d known it was going to be like that, I would have […]

  2. Give me back my gorilla

    Ok so World’s Greatest Shave took place at uni last week. There was a good turnout of people and an even more astounding number of people getting their heads shaved! At one point there was almost a fight over a razor. It was also an afternoon of freebies! Free pizza and free drinks, and of […]

  4. Things which Suzanne should be doing instead of writing in this blog (Suzanne, obviously)

    1. Her law skills assignment, due on Monday, which involves reading about a case where some pizza delivery kid got mugged by his customer and then sued his boss for making him deliver the pizza and get mugged. (Honestly, after three weeks of law school, you start to think that you can sue anybody for […]

  5. Snatching a breath…. (Suzanne)

    Before coming to Melbourne, I spent a few months studying Chinese in Beijing because of the gap between the Hong Kong school calendar, which ends in June, and the Australian one, which starts in February. My clarinet teacher in Beijing used to use a phrase called ‘tou qi’ （偷气） a lot when referring to breathing […]

  6. Orientation, information and humiliation (Zoë)

    My O-Week began on Saturday, the 17th of February when I packed up my life at home in Shepparton and embarked on the two hour drive to Ormond College. I thought I’d be a lot sadder when I left home, but I wasn’t, which probably had something to do with the fact that I had […]

  7. No you're not the late one, I am! (David)

    it’s been three weeks since O-Week and I am still undecided about uni. I am still not sure whether I like it or not. Since uni began, my emotions have fluctuated a gzillion times per day. For example, I would feel like crap in the morning if I have to get up at 7am for […]

  8. Orientation week, and then some… (Suzanne)

    I actually already have a blog somewhere else, where I’ve already written five long rambly entries related to the first few weeks of school, all of which I’m just going to transfer over here sometime this week after a little bit of editing because I’m too lazy to write new entries. So, this is what […]

  9. Blog Number 1 (Georgie)

    So, how to start? My name’s Georgina, don’t call me Georgia and we’ll get along just fine. I’ve just finished my second week of arts at Melbourne and forgive me if I’m a little bit more excited than Michael about uni. I walk around uni in a constant state of disbelief and euphoria that yay! […]

  10. La Vie Bohème (Michael)

    Since this is my first real entry, I thought it might be an idea to recall the orientation experience briefly. Read on, &c.
