A fresh start
I’m fairly certain I have ADD…. I can’t seem to choose one degree and stick to it…. I think it’s mainly because post-grad law is where my passion truly lies. I guess I should explain! I’ve now transferred to Commerce (still at Melbourne Uni), so Im starting over as a first-year…. again! I’ve always known I […] -
HOLIDAYS
There isn’t a sweeter word in the English language than holidays. It strikes joy into the heart of every university student everywhere, and particularly in this university student. I finished my exams a week ago and I can safely say I have done very little, achieved absolutely nothing and I am LOVING it. I will […] -
Take 2
Have any of you ever tried a melted chocolate muffin from Romano’s? (Just outside the ERC). They…. are…. AMAZING! They make studying for 8 plus hours in the same EXACT place slightly more tolerable. I’m referring, of course, to the French film I had to edit yesterday. Myself and my group filmed it on Monday […] -
They serve chocolate in hell
I’m feeling mildly nostalgic and I have no idea what over? I’m sitting in a bar after having just finished my last essay for this semester and I’m feeling a little underwhelmed. Probably because I know come tomorrow, it’ll start all over again (studying, French orals, blah!!). The last time I blogged I had a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/05/13/they-serve-chocolates-in-hell

Reality check
First of all, my apologies for disappearing for the past few weeks. 4 mid-semester exams + a job that is ending (closing down) in a few weeks + attempting to have a life (and failing miserably) = a very cranky Luke. Houdini could learn something from my vanishing act. As the Easter break ends tonight, I […] -
Sleep?
Someone please remind me what that is? I know it involves a bed but that seems to be all the thoughts it conjures up. Between going to bed at 2 and being woken up every morning by other family members’ alarms, I’m being driven slowly insane. I have to get up and wake my brother […] -
Just another manic Friday
Is anybody else loving this cold weather? It’s bringing back memories of big coats, gloves, scarves…. basically the best parts of winter. I’ve also really enjoyed sitting at cafes on campus and watching people trip and slip and step in puddles while wearing thongs. Silly people! My least favourite parts would have to be the […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/25/just-another-manic-friday

Secret diary of a uni student
That’s what it feels like these days; it’s mountains and mountains of homework and obligations. It feels like no-one understands; like you’re drowning in an empty ocean……until you realise you’re surrounded by people in the exact same ‘boat’ (if I can continue with this metaphor). It’s confusing and altogether unpleasant. But it’s life and nothing […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/18/secret-diary-of-a-uni-student

Second week withdrawals
As the second week of university comes to a close, the work is speeding up and time seems to be getting shorter and shorter. Or I’m just losing motivation…..already. What I used to get done in about an hour now seems to take me a week. Even this how-ever-many words blog has taken me an […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/11/second-week-withdrawals

I’m back for more….
…..pain, that is. Remind me again why I enrolled in university? I’m clearly masochistic. Or maybe university is just less pain than working full-time? Hmm…. It’s officially the end of the first week of second year uni, and I’ve just walked out of what will no doubt be the hardest subject I’ve ever done. It’s […]
