I have two essays due on Friday
I’d like to say that the reason for my lack of posting in the past few weeks is due to researching in regards to the above fact, but that would be a blatant lie. I simply suck. Just like this blog post. I’M SORRY!blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/04/05/i-have-two-essays-due-on-friday

Chapter Eleven: Toning It Down (~jinghan)
My phone buzzes. It’s a text. “Oh god jing, can I just quit uni? It’s so overwhelming and I don’t know how to deal.” I calmly punch back consoling words, but what I’m really thinking is how much those words summarise how I’m feeling as well. You think first year is going to the toughest […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/04/03/chapter-eleven-toning-it-down-jinghan

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 […] -
arancini day
Hello my lovelies. It’s been awhile since appearing on cyber space and with ONLY 7 WEEKS OF UNI LEFT EVER much has happened. I’ve changed jobs – and m’dears those who are doing SALP or KLD or any other acronym… hello and hi… come and visit me in my office. It is rather hectic – […] -
Chapter Ten: Falling Off The Other Side (~jinghan)
Being motivated and hardworking: it’s good, but there is also going too far and just burning yourself out. I forgot about the danger of this when I was trying to shake off my holiday-laziness. And then it all came crashing down. It didn’t help that the weekend before I had said something stupidly mean to […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/31/chapter-ten-falling-off-the-other-side-jinghan

Writing an Assignment, Cara-Style
Okay, I’ve flipped through my copies of “The Principles of Writing in Psychology” and “Writing for Psychology” (Which are both orange. Conspiracy theory, anyone?) but I feel like the world is lacking a more back-to-basics, stripped-down guide to attacking a lab report from a world-weary second year perspective. For you, my pretty stars of readers, […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/30/writing-an-assignment-cara-style

Chapter Nine: BrainSpace (~jinghan)
The water is a perfect temperature on my skin: not too cold and not too warm. Light dances on every atom* of air suspended in the the water; it’s like swimming through sunlight. Surrounded by the blue of the water below and the blue of the sun above, my mind and body relax. Thoughts flow and […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/27/chapter-nine-brainspace-jinghan

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

This is it (Gianina)
Oh hello there. I am quite surprised that I still have author privileges for this blog. Some of you might be wondering who the hell am I. But I suppose that’s to be expected, since I left everything hanging about, oh, three months ago. Fast forward to this month then — Yes, I have indeed […] -
Chapter Eight: Slow Torture of the Sleep Deprived Mind (~jinghan)
It’s Thursday 11am. “Listen to the crackle of the beanbag beans,” I tell myself, “the mumble of a whispered conversation, the quite snore of someone else on the beanbags. Listen to the gentle hum of the air conditioning, the quiet buzz of the film being played through the headphones. Feel the pressure of the ground […]
