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

A whole new world (Raphael)
After the stress, intensity and closed environment of Year 12, the copious amounts of FUN which are offered in all forms at Uni present a very welcome change! As stated previously on this blog, UniMelb is a microcosm of activity, a city within a city, and a massive community to get involved in. There is always […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/04/01/a-whole-new-world-raphael

#1//Into the Rabbit Hole (Nicole)
My experiences so far have been akin to travelling into the rabbit hole; but the process has been part falling, part purposefully looking for the fall. That’s not to say I had the hubris of knowing Wonderland would follow the fall—it doesn’t. I took the plunge in anticipating for more rabbit tunnels lain in […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/03/30/1into-the-rabbit-hole-nicole

Tuesdays with Eyre?
It’s been a week, and thankfully, it’s non-teaching period for whole week here in Melbourne. Time to finally catch up on those lecture recordings you promise you’d watch tomorrow, get a serious dig-in/leg-up on your assignments, and if you miraculously get to the bottom of the work pile, you earned yourself a breather for the […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/03/29/tuesdays-with-eyre

It Shouldn't Happen to a First Year! (Aimee)
It shouldn’t happen to a first year… Picture this. You are alone. It is your first ever day of tertiary study and here you are at the University of Melbourne. There’s just one problem: you don’t have a clue where you’re going! You’re supposed to be on the ground floor of the ERC. You’ve found […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/03/28/it-shouldnt-happen-to-a-first-year-aimee

First Impressions (Eyre)
First posts, while they don’t come big, they don’t come often either, so I’d like to take this opportunity to say hello to you, dear reader. After some thought on approaches, I think my pick would be the AA-style you’d see on movies and TV. Here we go.blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2016/03/22/first-impressions

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 […] -
