Studyschmudy
One of the things that’s annoying about being a Music student (especially one heading for a Performance major) is probably finding suitable environments and times to practise. As a person who regularly gets up around 6-7am even on weekends, I’m constantly frustrated at the fact that I can’t practise anywhere in this house in the […] -
Gelati, uni, and dreaming large
It’s the end of the uni week for me tomorrow, and boy am I feeling good. That’s probably thanks to the 2-flavour cup of gelati* I’ve had in Lygon St. after my last class. It was there and then, while savouring that creamy goodness that I realised I like uni after all (connection..?). Anyways, this […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/05/07/gelati-uni-and-dreaming-large

1/6th way through my 3 hour break…
Yup, as usual I’m on a computer in the Student Union Lab doing my usual internet activities (checking my blog, reading online articles and checking my email), and I just thought that it would be totally awesome if I posted a blog right now just to further procrastinate on the catch-up Psych work I’ve been […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/04/28/16th-way-through-my-3-hour-break

Mrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggllllllll
I know what the title refers to (well, only WoW players would get this =P), but it’s also the sound that I feel like mumbling over and over because I’m not really in a mood to sleep and am listening to some Haydn (Cello Concerto in C Major, if you were wondering). I find it […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/04/26/mrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggllllllll

'Game On' but down and out
Ugh. Ears blocked. Throat scratchy. Nose doing that frustrating indecisive thing where it can’t decide whether it’ll get its kicks more from rendering me incapable of breathing without looking like a demented goldfish, or making me have to dash around the house for a tissue every minute or so. And I know what this is. This […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/04/25/game-on-but-down-and-out

Poetry, Polemic
Fried mushrooms and whole tomatoes are obscenely tasty. And scrambled eggs aren’t as disgusting as I thought they would be. I have a new favourite breakfast. And getting an H1 in Creative Writing will require some kind of tutor bribe. My best effort, an exquisitely wrought poem, deft, cynical, and erudite, only received an H3. […] -
Uh Oh…Last but (hopefully) not least :) (Viv)
Warning: this blog is riddled with grammatical errors, long-winded rants and, worst of all, my own personal thoughts and experiences. In no way does it aim to be witty or entertaining. Any hint at being so is, rest assured, purely coincidental. ————————- Okay, okay. 7/8 weeks into uni and everybody’s already moved past the introductions and […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/04/22/uh-ohlast-but-hopefully-not-least-viv

stud muffin [nicola]
The title of my blog has absolutely nothing to do with the content, I just thought it was the funniest thing i’ve heard in a long time… I’m sitting on a train at the moment (like I seem to be doing most of the time) thinking of a witty anecdotal blog. Mind blank. Seem to […] -
"And yes, different things are different!"
Last week I felt very sophisticated, in going to see the ‘fine arts’ in the city of Melbourne. These fine arts included: a trip to the comedy festival, and going to the VCA symphonic orchestra. I know comedy doesnt exactly count as fine arts, far from it, but its in the city, and you have […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2008/04/14/and-yes-different-things-are-different
