It’s a Process [Clay]
Howdy Folks, It is currently 9:26 pm on Sunday the 17th, and instead of doing any of the readings I promised myself I would finish this weekend or maybe starting the essay draft my tutor wanted to go over on Wednesday, I’m writing my silly little blog posts and ignoring all of my responsibilities. It’s […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2024/03/18/its-a-process-clay

Cole’s World
Life Is Elsewhere Today marks March 16th. I casually glanced at my smartphone, only to find the countdown I had set prior to my departure now relegated to the annals of history, adorned with the inscription “25 days since.” Yes, it has been precisely 25 days since my arrival in Melbourne. Before embarking on this […] -
Obligatory Introduction (by your girl Pepper)
It’s Week 3. Without indulging in excessive preamble: I find introductions tedious. Nothing I tell you about my favourite band, hobbies, or various other cute tidbits are going to inform you on whether you’ll like me as a person, or enjoy my company. But an introductory post is by definition introductory, and I am perfectly […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2024/03/14/obligatory-introduction-by-your-girl-pepper

And that’s it!
The end of week 12. Holy crap. When I started my first tutorial all the way back in February I couldn’t even imagine getting to the end of my first year of university- 1/3 of the way through undergraduate. Then on to bigger and better things! Hopefully! Anyone else got a huge crunch for exams? […] -
I Got Shoved…? + Exams Are Underrated!
So, I’ve just realised that I’ve missed more than one or two blog posts. Whoops! Time really does fly in 1st year. Speaking of flying, I flew onto my back after getting shoved in Brunswick (about 3km north of campus). Yeah, I won’t be the first or last person to tell you that 1st year […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2023/07/25/i-got-shoved-exams-are-underrated

Booking plane tickets back home
Hey everyone, here’s my spiel for the day. To all the international students and Australians who have to take a plane back home, DO NOT BOOK THEM UNTIL YOU KNOW YOUR EXAM SCHEDULE!!!!! I speak from experience. Not knowing that my exams would be the first three days of the exam period 🤯, I naively […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2023/06/12/booking-plane-tickets-back-home

Moving out of home! To a new country!
Hey everyone, Amy here! Today’s topic will be moving out of home and adapting well to a new home and a new life! I am personally from New Zealand so that’s about three and a half hours to four hours plane ride away! At first it was incredibly daunting moving to a new country, but […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2023/04/30/moving-out-of-home-to-a-new-country

hi from chelsea!
Hi everyone, welcome to my intro post! Like all of my assessments, readings, lecture recordings and other work, I have put writing this intro post off for the maximum amount of time possible and instead have been watching sit-coms I’ve already seen in all of my spare time. I have also had to spend 3 […] -
Kia ora/Xin chao, it’s Elizabeth!
I still have much nostalgia for the places I’ve lived in before and I occasionally get melancholic in this new city. But sometimes, I could almost feel the nostalgia of the moment just before. That’s one of the many feelings that keep me rolling.blogs.unimelb.edu.au/first-year/2023/04/22/kia-ora-xin-chao-its-elizabeth
