I can prove anything by statistics except the truth
Second year in medicine and in my main course, we’re delving deeper and deeper into the human body with focuses on the respiratory, cardiovascular and locomotor systems. On my other course, I’m loaded down with statistics. The lecturer is throwing everything at us – anything from person-years to variance to 95% confidence intervals (which, no […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/04/13/i-can-prove-anything-by-statistics-except-the-truth

You share no interest but it’s easy to pretend
I am almost at the point of giving up. The only thing stopping me from giving up is the song Don’t Give Up. Third year isn’t fun. There is no Intro- or Inter- in front of the subject name. It’s simply Microeconomics. There is heaps I want to blog about but I am afraid I […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/04/09/you-share-no-interest-but-its-easy-to-pretend

I Miss Melbourne Model: The Musical.
I also have two assignments due on Thursday, both of which I haven’t started. Lordy, what a depressing thought. If you didn’t see MM:TM, you seriously missed out. A few items of band trivia: 1. The band, being behind the screen and invisible to the audience, is actually in funny dress backstage. On Wednesday we […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/04/06/i-miss-melbourne-model-the-musical

Elisabeth Murdoch Theatre A… (Gianina)
…is it only me who hates this theatre? SALP Welcome Day was done there today, and I was again reminded of my aversion for this theatre. Sure, it’s a nice place – just the perfect size – for gathering 160 people. But getting people in and out of this venue is just way too horrid.

They’re alive! [nicola]
I really had to write a whole new post for this… You know the time when you discovered that your teacher was actually a person? For me it was in grade 1 when I saw my teacher at the supermarket. That was weird. Teachers don’t have a life outside of school… they just exist at […] -
5 weeks and counting… (Gianina)
Week 5 – I am still alive; a bit deprived of sleep, but hey, that’s part and parcel of being a Uni student, especially one who’s taking architecture subjects. Anyways, I have just found out that I’ve been accepted for SALP! For a while there, I thought they weren’t able to receive my application or that […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/04/02/5-weeks-and-counting

Smile :) [nicola]
Well, whatdoyaknow there is a Magician’s Society at uni. Having been asked by a friend of mine to attend one of their meetings, I entered a lecture theatre today in attempts to gather some secret secrets and left with an ability to separate two impossibly inseparable rubber bands and the ability to make a balloon […] -
Melbourne Model: The Musical. Be there. (Suzanne)
Quick housekeeping question: Kathryn, now that the WordPress displays our usernames under the posts automatically, is it really necessary to still be including our names in brackets in the title? ANYWAY. All prospective and current students wanting to get a brief understanding of the brouhaha surrounding the recent curriculum changes should go watch Melbourne Model: […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/03/21/melbourne-model-the-musical-be-there-suzanne

Decision time (Gianina)
To SALP or not to SALP, that is the question… I have about 2 days to really decide whether I want to do SALP or not, as the applications are due this Sunday. I originally aimed to get my application submitted by today, as we were advised during the information session to get it done […] -
Hello
After two weeks back to uni, I have successfully re-immersed myself in the dynamic flow of school life. I missed it. With the subject selection this year, I enjoy my ultimate year even more. The prospect of graduating in nine months time is indeed exciting but also leaves an enormous question mark on my diary […]
