Honey, I’m home!
After a good 3 months of summer holidays, which include much adventuring in the US and central america, an advanced SCUBA license (yay) but no phone, jewelry or any other valuables (a classic mexican experience), I returned to a country that had a new PM and unhealthy obsession with masterchef and once again walked under […] -
Haggling isn’t a dirty word [Daniel]
But it sure is necessary in tutoring, and I, poor, naive, foolish, cheap, undersold me, out of a misguided sense of fairness or perhaps pity, said that I would work for fewer than twenty dollars an hour for a month. Great, just great. Now I feel like the worlds biggest wimp, for not going for the […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/07/21/haggling-isnt-a-dirty-word-daniel

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

SWOT VAC
Yes, yes, it’s supposed to be a time when students study in preparation for exams, especially if they have one on the first week. Oh, and just my luck, my first exam is on the first day of the exam period. I haven’t done any studying though. Lately, I just find it hard to motivate […] -

Confessions of a (bad) blogger [Ankita]
Correction: Bad may not be the appropriate word. But with what word (adjective more specifically) do you associate someone who hasn’t posted a single blog entry in ages (strong aussie accent on “ages”.. hehe!) Uni 2.0: So you would think you’re going to have a better work ethic in second year, attend more lecture/tutes… more […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/05/16/confessions-of-a-bad-blogger-ankita

Grad Programs…
5 applications done, a few more to go – all interstate at that How do people manage to get at least 15 done anyways??? What with the resume, cover letter, application questions and sometimes, the annoying folio More importantly, why does Victoria not have Grad Programs for Landscape Architecture? Is it because the water restrictions […] -
Ziggy et al.
You know what? Passwords are a pain in the bum. Especially the long string of random characters that the password reset function gives me when it’s been too long since I’ve logged in and I’ve consequently forgotten my last password. This may be a sign that I need to log in and post more often. […] -

C’est Fini
My last day at McGill was yesterday. It is sad. So many good memories though! The weather has been so beautiful, sunny – perfectly perfect breeze. Although now it is slightly overcast which is perfect setting for reading indoors, eating artisan citrus cupcakes, drinking christmas tea and Ella Fitzgerald playing in the background. There are […]
