A confession to make (Kripa)
I’m proud to say that I have been a good student by attending all my lectures, listening well enough such that I did not have the need to access the recorded lectures on the LMS. This need did come up during studying when I had to miss one of the lectures to attend another important […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/06/07/a-confession-to-make-kripa

Procrastination
It can be really difficult to study when you’ve just found out the Musée de la Mode et du Textile in Paris is having an exhibition featuring Valentino – one of your all time favourite designers….and it happens to be perfect timing – starting just 2 weeks before you grace the city with your presence!!

Subject selections and assessment (Suzanne)
So I realised the other day that LLB students (that’s law kids under the old model) can’t take classes offered to JD students (that’s law kids under the Melbourne Model). I’m really hoping that doesn’t mean subject cuts for LLB kids in law, because although the law faculty has a buttload of cash to throw […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/06/04/subject-selections-and-assessment-suzanne

I have finally found what I’ve been looking for (David)
I would just like to announce to cyberspace that after two and a half months, I have finally found my study mojo… and it feels bloody awesome. Let’s hope the good run continues for me and for all of you. Just a quick note: I watched Q&A on the ABC tonight and thought it […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/29/i-have-finally-found-what-ive-been-looking-for-david

Reaching the 50% level (Kripa)
My friend recently said – Have you noticed that we are already halfway through our course? That’s when it hit me! Upon the passing of this semester exams (hopefully), I have done 50% of my Bachelor’s. How fast was that? I have been so caught with each semester and its hectic schedule that I failed […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/28/reaching-the-50-level-kripa

Holocaust and Genocide (Georgie)
Right now I can see when all of my essays are due, but it seems too far away to be worrying about them yet. So, for the moment, I am a lady of leisure. A few of my friends said this makes me sounds like a prostitute, but that’s not how I mean it! since […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/26/holocaust-and-genocide-georgie

Holy Schmitt, Batman!: essays, internships, and auditions (Suzanne)
Apparently, there is a Facebook group titled ‘What the Foucault’. As a student of legal theory, this greatly amuses me. It amuses me enough that I forget that I am supposed to be reading Foucault for my essay due on Friday, and not reading really bad Foucault-jokes on Facebook walls. I have decided that from […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/24/essays-internships-rehearsals-suzanne

Prague (Georgie)
Hi all! I have just been accepted to the International Youth Leadership Conference that is held in July in Prague! It’s a week of discussion and debate on international politics and I’m so excited about it! At the moment I’m trying to get a sponsor for it – ideas anyone? And seeing if I can […] -
From Optimism to Pessimism (Georgie)
Well, it’s taken me halfway into my Arts course to realise, but the world is screwed. This realisation came during my Holocuast and Genocide tutorial on the Sudan genocide, a day after we had a Sudanese refugee talk to us. There is no realistic solution and it’s not only Sudan, all of Africa can look […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/23/from-optimism-to-pessimism-georgie
