  1. Why I feel like a nerd (Suzanne)

    It has recently occurred to me how few things I do outside of school now that music is actually my main academic thing rather than extra-curricular. Basically, my day looks like this: Learn solfege for Aural Studies. Go to lectures. Practise. Go to rehearsal. Practise. Go to another lecture. Start law reading. Get distracted during […]

  2. Make uni experience more enjoyable

    Here are a few tips to better your uni experience (WARNING: do these at your own risk): Smoke a pipe and respond to each point the professor makes by waving it and saying, “Quite right, old bean!” Wear X-Ray Specs. Every few minutes, ask the professor to focus the overhead projector. Sit in the front […]

  3. Burnley crash aftermath

My last blog is way down the bottom..better update my readers…well, everyone’s now aware of the burnley crash..horrific..my parents were quite worried as to where I was when it happened…luckily I was on the slow peaceful tram back to the station.

  4. Blog Number 4 (Georgie)

    So it’s a little past 8 and I’m sitting (obviously at a computer) on the lower ground level of the Baillieu. I’ve finally decided to do some work and because I despise early mornings I thought that after my classes from 2-4 today I may as well hunker down in the uni’s largest library. It’s […]

  5. Performances (Suzanne)

    So, on Friday, I got sick. Fever of 38.5 degrees, chills in 30 degree weather, sore throat, coughing, and all. You know something’s wrong with you when the most annoying thing about a 38.5 degree fever is that it raises the temperature of your breath enough to make you play sharp at Saturday and Sunday’s […]

  6. Someone's out to get me (Zoë)

    Today there was a death threat on my answering machine. Honestly. Somone is “watching my every move”, and I’m going to be killed very soon. Hold the 000 call, folks. It’s all part of a game we’re playing at college called Assassins. Basically, everyone has a target who they have to “kill” (no actual violence […]

  7. The Worst has happened

    I hate when people whine and complain on their blogs, that’s why I’m glad I don’t have to read what I write. I cant believe it. It’s the 5th week and I am BORED. My whole routine consists of going to uni and then…coming home. I barely do anything on the weekends. It’s pathetic. I […]

  8. Blog Number 3 (Georgie)

    Things I achieved this week: 1. Watched all 6 ‘Rocky’ movies, including ‘Rocky Balboa’ – awesome! I think my favourite is the third one with Mr T, but a tough choice. As I type I’m listening to ‘Gonna Fly Now’. 2. Bought a new dress on Saturday, which is a massive achievement because I don’t […]

  9. One of the most stupid things ever done!

    Ok, u might be wondering what that could possibly be…I found it stupid but yeh, it was funny as well! I climbed the stairs of Redmond Barry buidling all the way to the 10th floor even though the lift was working up and about. Why? The lift was so damn crowded I decided to do […]

  10. Practise makes perfect. Perfectly insane. (Suzanne)

    I really really need to start practising more. Faculty of Music guidelines state that you should be practising at least 3-4 hours a day, and right now I’m averaging about two and a half. It’s not enough, both in terms of the amount of hours, and in terms of the progress I’m making. I have […]
