Tears, Home, Uni, College, Friends…Life. (Lara)
The past few weeks have been filled with…well….Stuff. I went home to Sydney for 6 nights…from the last Thursday of uni, through Easter till the 19th when my friend from Sydney and myself flew back here- she stayed with me in college for 4 nights. Whilst in Sydney it was a good chance to catch […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/29/tears-home-uni-college-friendslife-lara

I’m standing in a certain kind of light, that’s never shone on me before (Sophie)
The last week off has been great but incredibly busy (when is it not though?!). I’ve managed to get quite a bit of study in but it always seems there is never enough time for absolutely everything you could ‘possibly’ do. Currently I’m at home and have just enjoyed a delectable dinner of Cajun-spiced salmon […] -
Everything on my mind (Sophie)
Happy Easter everyone! I hope everyone has managed to find some time over this break to relax a bit and for a moment, leave the excessively busy routine that university life forces you into. On Thursday I wasn’t feeling 100% and when more than one of my friends commented that I looked tired (They meant […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/15/everything-on-my-mind-sophie

Cheap Wine (Johanna)
Oh my goodness. I.. don’t know where to start. How can one introduce a post where they are going to spill everything? I’ll tell it in chronological order, despite wishing to jump straight to the juicy/scary/sad/strange part. On Thursday night, I found myself in a strange sort of limbo. All of my housemates were going […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/15/cheap-wine-johanna

Cravings (Johanna)
Last night at around 8pm, I suddenly had a craving of the worst sort – I wanted to play World of Warcraft, the hideously geeky game my boyfriend used to be a fan of. It was horrible – I ran down to Kmart in my pajamas to see if they had it. They were out […] -
“Only you beneath the moon and under the sun…” (Johanna)
A line from one of my favourite songs, Night and Day by Ella Fitzgerald. It gets double points for being written by Cole Porter too. Gosh how I love musicals. Anyway, the title of this post doesn’t really mean anything – I just wanted to try to convey the rhythmic goodness and lovely slinkiness of […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/11/only-you-beneath-the-moon-and-under-the-sun-johanna

Another day where time is the only answer (Sophie)
This weekend has been a bit quieter than usual but nevertheless very enjoyable. Tennis consumed a lot of my spare time between working down at the club and playing Sunday Social Comp at Melbourne Uni. After such a long break over last year due to Year 12 commitments I am slowly attempting to get back […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/09/another-day-where-time-is-the-only-answer-sophie

Happy Tacos (Johanna)
I feel alright. Not so great, but not wanting to jump out the window either. Last night, Matthew was my saviour. Matthew is my boyfriend of a year and a half, and he lives in Geelong, doing 5th year Arts/Law at Deakin University. There is about 90 minutes between us, rather than 9 before I […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/04/06/happy-tacos-johanna
