Bananas (Rick)
The weekend back to Melbourne was extremely busy. First I picked up a friend from her sister’s and stayed over at her place, watching Kill Bill. It was part funny, but with great shots and the sheer quantity of fighters at the end just bizarre. As usual me and my friend watched Rage on ABC […] -
Post-exams “A guide” *edit part 1* (Sophie)
Okay so my marks were pretty good when I think realistically about the fact it was my first semester, I made a lot of organisation errors….and I guess if I realise that getting over 80% at Uni is a lot harder than at high school…however I was still severely disappointed (for a while). Particularly when […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/17/post-exams-a-guide-edit-part-1-sophie

Finally Feeling Like Holidays (Johanna)
How annoying. A couple of days ago, I was sent an email from another student at the university. The email basically accused me of being ungrateful, racist, pathetic, among other things. From what I could tell, the student was pretty much taking out all their issues of imagined inferiority on me. It was ridiculous, but […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/15/finally-feeling-like-holidays-johanna

“You there! Stop having fun!” (Jeremy)
Dear Jeremy; Us good folk at the University at Melbourne have now, with the aid of many, many staff, and, in a panicky finish, the Managing Director’s Tattslotto numbers, managed to evaluate your final score for your subjects. We have discovered that you have achieved a mark below the 60% range. Here at the University […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/13/you-there-stop-having-fun-jeremy

Emergency, Paging Doctor Beat! *dances* (Johanna)
What fun vacation has been.. not. I’m aching to get back; I need something to fill my days. I love reading the other blogger’s posts about how they can’t possibly fit anymore into their schedules. Sounds like how I used to be, but alas.. my group of friends have been flung in every direction and […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/10/emergency-paging-doctor-beat-dances-johanna

Hoooooooooooooooome (Chris)
I’m back in Sydney writing this, and gosh, it’s a bit of a strange feeling to have everything done for me again. After what I can only describe as a tumultuous term, I’m lapping up the generous amounts of food and attention being offered by family and friends. With that said, it’s genuinely odd to […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/07/hoooooooooooooooome-chris

I got a lot of livin’ to do, and I ain’t got no time to waste! (Sophie)
EXAMS ARE OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last night I was so beyond-words-happy. Throughout my management exam instead of time to go, I thought of essays to go until vacation!!!! (Funnily enough more motivating than distracting) I am thrilled to finally get a chance to relax. It hasn’t quite hit me yet, and I’m still in high-stress mode….but tonight […] -
On Being A Total Nutcase (Jeremy)
Sometime late last year, I was sitting in a small room located somewhere deep within the monolith that is the Engineering department with the lovely, helpful Ms.Stevenson-McBride (NOT like that, you filthy, dirty perverts), sorting out my enrolment and subject choices for not only year 2006 but also in terms of the rest of my […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/06/09/on-being-a-total-nutcase-jeremy

Come sail your ships around me, And burn your bridges down (Sophie)
Nothing like a bit of Nick Cave to pick you up in a dark moment – okay, perhaps most would take that comment as sarcasm, but in truth I adore his music and find it uplifting despite its dark edges. I have just been listening to “The Weeping Song” and “The Ship Song” – two […]
