Fahrenheit 451 (Daniel)
Find it. I double dare you, I triple dare you to find this book at a bookshop. This is a book you cannot find new within Australia at all. Why? Publishers don’t publish it anymore in Australia. Which is really strange because for a book about censorship it’s interesting how ironic it is that we […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/08/12/fahrenheit-451-daniel

don't be afraid to ask (Natty)
Wow. These past couple of days (actually weeks) have been like an emotional roller coaster for me. Living by myself finally lost it’s newness and appeal and things all went wrong. I got really lonely and miserable and I’ve let myself get behind with my work and all sorts of random little things which need […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/04/29/dont-be-afraid-to-ask-natty

"Here's Danny" (Daniel)
Hey everyone, wassup? It’s already been 3 whole days of uni and I’ve already been licked up like Wizz Fizz back to university life. For example, on Monday I had a mid semester exam followed by a movie night at a friend’s place in Medley college (to save on metcards), woke up (Tuesday) missed the […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/04/22/heres-danny-daniel

Two very good Uni services (sort of). ~Katie~
I am sitting in the National Library of Australia and am I little worried that I’ll get in trouble for typing too loudly. This place is intimidating. On a more Victorian note – I discovered two wonderful things about the university last week. 1. Subject Coordinators are actually quite awesome. This is based only on […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/04/14/two-very-good-uni-services-sort-of-katie

Less optimistic by the second… (Katie)
I feel a bit like doing a slightly more in-depth look into one of my subjects for the Blog (because, be honest, you all care deeply about Criminology), but my energy levels are unpredictable and I may run out of steam. I seem to always be doing something or remembering something I should be doing; […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/24/less-optimistic-by-the-second-katie

Boring news from the nail biter (Natty)
I have started biting my nails again. This really annoys me because it took me three very dedicated months to kick the habit in the first place and then after just two weeks at uni I’m stressing out enough over work to like, totally ruin my french manicure ya know? Haha, I am being purposefully […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/17/boring-news-from-the-nail-biter-natty

Saint Suzi of Supply+Demand, Statistics and Study [Suzi]
"So, what happens after you get your degrees?", "So you guys apparently hate all pianists and mainstream guitarists, who do you like again?", "Do you sit around discussing Bach?", "Okay, if not Bach, Mozart?", "If there's a diatonic scale, is there a triatonic one? Quatratonic? Sexatonic? Octotonic?", "Do all flautists have a flaut-y look to them?"blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/17/saint-suzi-of-supplydemand-statistics-and-study-suzi

Yawn* Days off are tiring too! (Dan)
Yay posting…. And now I’ve forgotten what to say. So I will describe my busy day. I woke up, found some clean pants, went out, bought presents, went to a friends place on the other side of the city, picked my little sister up and had saxaphone practice. Yay descriptive……… I need to work at […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/12/yawn-days-off-are-tiring-too-dan

Homer to Hollywood: a Student Epic
Ok. So I know we’re technically meant to put our real names in brackets in the title but I really don’t want to... given my proneness to vicious and bitter rants [...]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/11/homer-to-hollywood-a-students-epic

Pancake shake! (Natty)
So, my first day of uni is over 🙂 lalala. It was quite a good day actually! I was expecting the introductory lectures to be pretty boring but they were actually quite good, especially ‘An Ecological History of Humanity.’ Our lecturer pointed out how we’re a generation living through two massive global issues, climate change […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2009/03/02/pancake-shake-natty
