So, how's the study going? (Raphael)
I still find it ridiculously fantastic to be able to tell someone “yeah, I’m studying at Melbourne Uni at the moment;” it makes me feel so grown up! But “how is that study going at the moment?” you may ask. “How has the transition been, have you found a balance between University-level study and the […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/04/19/so-hows-the-study-going-raphael

#2//A Good Test (Nicole)
The past week touched my nerves for a bit, and I’m embarrassed to say my limbic reptilian senses mildly emerged as the assessments rolled in. It’s interesting how one’s mental landscape can be quite the petri-dish no one wants it to be, and a simple introspective moment can be quite the antibiotic to start afresh […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/04/17/2a-good-test-nicole

Distracte- SQUIRREL!
Vacation’s over, and class is back. Not going to be much of a break until the end of May, so it would be a good time to stay productive for the rest of the semester. With that said, it’s probably not as simple as a single sentence, so it’s important to consider the following:blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/04/05/distracte-squirrel

Arriving into April (Eleanor)
So, somehow we’ve made it. Four weeks in and ready to face the assessment wave after SWOT vac – Study With Out Teaching vacation. Hopefully it presented a chance to redeem all those missed lectures and work hard, otherwise it can become a Silly Waste Of Time instead. Almost like a flashback to the last […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/04/03/arriving-into-april-eleanor

Freedom Has Come
I can’t believe it that I have finished first year. I survived through the hard times. I survived through those last minute assignments. I survived through practical and written exams. I survived it all. I’m still amazeballs that I had made it. The feeling is truly rewarding, while trying not to have any negative thoughts […] -
Week 12 Feels
Holy bagebus! It’s going to be Week 12 tomorrow! AHHH!! This semester has crept me up a little, and has gone faster than what I expected it would be. Looking back from the start of semester two, I had gone through a lot, and I’m not sure whether it is more intense than Semester 1. […] -
A Musician's Sacrifice
Making more time for something has one, or two sacrifices that needs to be cut out for the week. It is pretty common for some, or majority of musos, or for any one else in uni in general. For instance, not going to lectures (that are recorded), less time studying (and cramming every thing to […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/10/16/a-musicians-sacrifice

What I Have Learnt So Far
Being a first year opens up a new chapter in life, and I have learnt a lot of things about uni and life in general. Such as.. 1. Things can get crazy You have no idea how it is hectic for first years. It’s like them saying, “Here’s all your assignments, readings, studying, practising, things […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/10/04/what-i-have-learnt-so-far

Reflections
This semester is looking pretty good so far. Yes, I have had some setbacks with not getting desired marks etc, but this has instilled in me a drive to perform better and an understanding of had work! Overall, I feel like I’m more at home at uni. I’m more confident now, making more friends and […] -
Mid-Semester Update (Bella)
Hey readers! Yes, I’m being optimistic – we still have Week 6 to go until we are halfway through. However, I haven’t updated in a while – for which I do apologise. Here’s what I’ve been up to recently… PUPPIES AT UNI! Yes, you read that correctly. The University organised puppies to come to uni […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2015/08/30/mid-semester-update-bella
