  1. #3//Electric Episode (Nicole)

    Of all the serendipities that university-hood has to offer, here’s something that has caught me with the widest possible grin; a Game of Thrones showing at the Rowdy library. The TV lounge area at the Rowdy has been my little hobbit-hole for afternoon naps. A podcast episode, or a shoegaze-surf-esque playlist, would often fade off […]

  2. Confession Time (Aimee)

        Dear reader, You might remember me telling you that every so often, like anyone, I’m plagued by what can only be described as ‘WHAT-IN-THE-NAME-OF-SANITY-AM-I-DOING-HERE?!?’ moments. Well, a while back, I had one and now, I want to tell you about it. That’s right, reader buddies: our relationship has progressed! Together, we have bypassed […]

  3. Too Close for Comfort

    As I sit in the MSLC, shaking but relieved, I want to reflect on what, just, happened.

  4. Intermission (Eleanor)

    You’ve survived half of your first semester at university! Pat on the back and a high-five for getting through so far- because wow, is it different from high school. No one telling you to hand in homework. No one telling you to be on time. No lockers, no backpacks, no uniform. At first this seemed like […]

  5. 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 […]

  6. A Neat Observation

    Outside of studies, Moving to Melbourne would still definitely bring a culture shock to most people, and as with such most of us have to adapt to the changing customs, different language, and higher prices (le sigh). Fortunately, something about that first part is a thing that I can definitely get used to.

  7. Moving On Up (Aimee)

      Dear reader, I hope you’ve had an absolutely spiffing weekend! (‘Spiffing’ – what a marvellous word! Try saying it now in your best posh accent!) Would you believe we’re in week 7 which means *drum-roll please!* …. we’re over halfway through Semester 1!!! *Cue fanfare!* While you’ve been transitioning to winter woolies and the […]

  8. #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 […]

  9. 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:
