  1. The flat white

    If you enjoy living in Melbourne, you’re probably a coffee drinker. Coffee drinking is a quintessential part of life and an important part of student life aka caffeine hit to keep you awake during early morning lectures. So turn on the chill, café music and let’s enjoy the summer holidays. They’re nearly officially here and […]

  2. Done with exams

    So much to do, and so little time [1] . That’s exactly how the exams went. Just glad they are over and done with and now I can enjoy summer. Not saying that the semester is over, just boring studies are. Looking for fun things to do at Uni and make new friends, slow and […]

  3. Check In Time! #4 (with a lot of random life updates, and musings about the semester with friends)

    2:06am, Singapore. I should not be awake at this hour– there’s no need to anyway, submissions are over for me and what’s more, I have a hair appointment early next morning (deciding to highlight my hair brown and cut my fringe, something which I have never done. Let’s see if it turns out to be […]

  4. Inky fingers and orange juice

    I hadn’t realised how slack I had been throughout the semester until I started to revise for my last exam (from the 23rd until the 25th!!!!!! Has really kept this Arts child on her feet). I had every intention of simply r e v i s i n g but that has quickly turned into […]

  5. It really is beautiful, all of it

    Thank you everyone in Melbourne, finally being able to see some of my extended family has been an absolute blessing these past couple of weeks.  How strange, the week my Grandma is able to come to dinner for the first time in a long time is the same week I can go to the pub […]

  6. Check In Time! #3

    1:36am, Singapore. I have just finished an assignment not too long ago, had a long chat and replied a long overdue email. I technically have 2 zoom calls scheduled for tomorrow late morning, and a couple over the weekend as well– ranging from interviews for school stuff, job related calls (will be starting a new […]

  7. The descent

    We’re SO close to the end now!! This semester’s passed by very quickly, but that’s usually how I feel once something is over, so maybe that’s my relief speaking. I’ve almost made it through my 2000-word essay grind, too, and, once again, my relief is piping up!! What the end of this semester AND the […]

  8. Smith’s crinkle cut chips

    So I’m sitting in my room, listening to some angry guitars noise because there really isn’t a lot to do right now.  Honestly, what the hell was going on the in 70s and why did it stop.  See tonight’s listening for a fat riff, yodelling, whistling and a flute solo because, prog rock. Doing group […]

  9. Look out

    I’m really not sure why I was regarding mid-semester break as a holiday last week, and in the many weeks preceding. I was in that mindset until Tuesday, three days ago, when I realised that I actually DO actually have 4400 words to write by the 30th, and a presentation to prepare for, and my […]

  10. Coming Home

    Lectures, Orientation Week, and student theatre – it’s was all online. It’s like the whole world took a massive Swot Vac and we had to learn the basics again. Everything was transported online, and almost overnight our same-same lives became very different. Studying at my new virtual learning hub – The University of Melbourne, feels […]
