Very short summary, these last weeks have involved events such as: *Heading back to Melbourne a couple of times for water polo, and also to organise my semester 2 arrangements *Numerous parties (all of my friends seem to have their birthdays around this time) *Various outings to try to occupy my mind with more favoured […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/07/an-update-on-the-last-5-weeks-or-so-lara

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

Flying By (Rick)
I’ve been away from college for a week and a half now. Being at home is quieter and colder. I’ve been very lazy unpacking, and by the time I do it will be time to pack up again. Why don’t I? At least put my clothes in some draws so I’m not tripping over my […] -
Instant JAFFY (just add water!) (Jeremy)
The semester has come and gone, and with it has gone any petal-bordered, silver-spooned, speech-night private school delusions of what First Year really is. Instead, it has been replaced by Utter Reality. And what is the reality? Well, to be honest, the reality rocks, as long as you handle it right. All in all, I […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/07/01/instant-jaffy-just-add-water-jeremy

Do I Move You? (Sophie)
Things have been wonderfully busy and stressful as my holidays have turned into a “How much can I fit in 24 hours?” game. It is usually a good thing as I become so physically exhausted sleep is a haven that I fall into with ease…however at times my excitement at everything I’m involved with causes […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/06/26/do-i-move-you-sophie

After (Rick)
I slacked off for a few days after my first two exams, and went home for my brother’s birthday and helped out with getting ready the food and cleaning the house. When I came back I properly got back into study and read through my Introduction to Programming text book. I had that exam on […] -
– {Insert Title Here} – (Jeremy)
DID you ever hear the story of the man who left the rainforest and travelled to the desert, to look for a tree? Or perhaps the story of the woman on the beach, searching for a shell to put to her ear, so she could hear the ocean? You probably haven’t, because I just made […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/06/20/insert-title-here-jeremy

My story so far. In response to Sophie’s philosphy (Jim)
I absolutely agree with ur comment except the last line. The meaning of life is to never be forgotten. i dont like that line, sorry. I follow another philosphy, learned from the book, “tuesday with Morries”. Everyone should read that book. It is an inspirational and entertaining book. Basically: love community, family and have a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/06/16/my-story-so-far-in-response-to-sophies-philosphy-jim

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 […] -
The Agony and the Ecstasy (Jeremy)
I have one confession to make; despite playing AFL, I am also a soccer fanatic. I am one of those people who went into mourning when SBS lost the rights to the English Premier League to Pay-TV, I am one of those people for whom the A-League seems to have managed to breathe new life […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2006/06/13/the-agony-and-the-ecstasy-jeremy
