  1. 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 […]

  2. Secret diary of a uni student

    That’s what it feels like these days; it’s mountains and mountains of homework and obligations. It feels like no-one understands; like you’re drowning in an empty ocean……until you realise you’re surrounded by people in the exact same ‘boat’ (if I can continue with this metaphor). It’s confusing and altogether unpleasant. But it’s life and nothing […]

  3. Decisions – also, fetish clubs?!

    Hello and welcome to another round of Shannon-style throwing words at the audience blogging. I’ve been a busy little bumblebee, or so it seems. Not in terms of doing much Uni work – mostly in terms of trying to keep up with birthdays and events and the occasional “HEY MELBOURNE UNIVERSITY, REMEMBER MY FACE?” appearance. […]

  4. Second week withdrawals

    As the second week of university comes to a close, the work is speeding up and time seems to be getting shorter and shorter. Or I’m just losing motivation…..already. What I used to get done in about an hour now seems to take me a week. Even this how-ever-many words blog has taken me an […]

  5. Chapter Three: A Changed Man (~jinghan)

    Side note from the author: I met Shannon my fellow blogger for the first time in real life on Tuesday! She is as awesome(ly crazy like me) in person as she is online. I also discovered that people actually read my ramblings, which still surprises and pleases me. ^^ — — This morning I walked […]

  6. Chapter One: A Messy Start (~jinghan)

    I’m sitting in my room surrounded by stuff. Okay, perhaps that was a bit of a messy and in-descriptive start to this blog entry, but it seems to reflect what the prelude to semester one has been like for me. Let me clarify myself: I’m sitting in my room, and had the intention of cleaning it, but […]

  7. Here we go again (Cara)

    I got sent home from work today for being feverish and vomity and scaring the customers, so I’m sitting on our luxurious 10-dollar sofa and wondering what it means that in a couple of weeks  I will be taking Parkville by storm on an almost daily basis. I’m Cara, one of the 2010 first-year bloggers, […]

  8. 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 […]

  9. Is it greedy to be ambitious? [Daniel]

    Or the opposite can be true, “Is it ambitious to be greedy?” It’s very easily interchangeable, but the two words have different connotations. Ambition, is well the better of the two, it shows you have initiative and you’re looking to move forward, to do, have and be more. Greed, on the other hand, looks to […]

  10. Only a month left?! [Daniel]

    Well it’s been a while second year blog, so much so that I’m in third year already. And what can I say time has been well spent. I went to Japan for 10 days with a host of people, many of which are now my friends. I made a gingerbread house for Christmas, which I […]
