Cristina S and the Chamber of Secrets
Sorry, but every time I think of myself as a second-year student I can’t help but relate it back to Harry Potter. Anyway. Hi! My name is Cristina, surname forever undisclosed because I am the only one of my kind in the world, therefore am easily look-up-able/Facebook-stalk-able. I am a second-year Bachelor of Arts (Media […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/02/10/cristina-s-and-the-chamber-of-secrets

Prologue to Second Year (~jinghan)
Note from the Author: A survey of my first-year blog revealed that I had written some fourty-three “chapters” and an estimated 45000 words – so pretty much a novel. I got rather attached to my strange narrative way of blogging during first year, so it only seems fit that I continue the saga with a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/02/07/prologue-to-second-year

A Ghost town of activity[Daniel]
The internet cookies tumbled through the town like a bunch of tumbleweed, a haunting reminder of the promise this small town had in the corner of the internet. Some of them become entangled in my boots, grabbing on wondering if they could leave with me. I didn’t bother with a reply, or getting rid of […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/07/16/a-ghost-town-of-activitydaniel

And here comes another year…
Hola. A big welcome to our new firsties, and to those who have graduated to the second year blog, as well as to the great unwashed adolescent masses who will be upon us soon for Orientation Week. A new year, of course, also means new existential reflection on the meaning of life so far and […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/02/20/and-here-comes-another-year

Heterokontophycaea and others
I feel somewhat justified writing a post, post-exams – as I have now commenced (4 days after my last exam) Marine Phytoplankton and Marine Botany summer school. Two subjects, two weeks, four exams and 25 points ahead. They call it ‘intensive’ subjects for a reason, and now – come Thursday – my social life consists […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/12/03/heterokontophycaea-and-others

Still Here (Georgie)
So I’m still here in Ireland. When I log out of my hotmail account I keep seeing the weather reports for Melbourne and I sigh with envy. Ahh, the sun! Classes have now finished and it’s a study week this week, and while I should be reviewing the entire Macroeconomics course as it’s the subject I […] -
Changes? (Georgie)
Suzanne, it worked! Someone else decided to join in. I was talking (read: exchanging facebook posts on a thread) with friends from Melbourne the other day and one of the comments, replying to ‘What’s going on at home’, was: ‘Not much, just the same really. It’s funny because you guys are going on exchange and […] -
Failte (Georgie)
And that is the only word I know in Irish – not Gaelic – and it means ‘welcome’. It’s pronounced ‘fault-ye’ and is plastered over signs and leaflets everywhere. Am still in Ireland having a bit of a wander before uni, which starts in 8 days. To keep things short I think I might make […] -
blog gathering
A handful of individuals. A nice meeting. I didn’t have much to say since I haven’t been keeping up with the blogs. I felt really bad. lol. Everyone was so into the blog and knew so much about the other bloggers. It’s nice to see 1, 2, THREE second year bloggers, minus one, the omnipresent Sophie. ^^ […] -
Holy bajeebus, they copied us! (Suzanne)
I just realised that QUT has their own first year blogs for their law students. So, yeah, I know we weren’t the first ever people to blog this (MIT, for example, has had blogs for both students and staff members going back quite a few years, with some of their original student bloggers already graduated, […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/03/30/holy-bajeebus-they-copied-us-suzanne
