They serve chocolate in hell
I’m feeling mildly nostalgic and I have no idea what over? I’m sitting in a bar after having just finished my last essay for this semester and I’m feeling a little underwhelmed. Probably because I know come tomorrow, it’ll start all over again (studying, French orals, blah!!). The last time I blogged I had a […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/05/13/they-serve-chocolates-in-hell

I’ve been having a pretty dodgy semester.
I'm very happy at the moment. I'm not doing well at Uni, I am aware of it. I'm not sure where I'm headed. I feel conflicted about the people around me. But I'm embracing the moments that are precious to me, and I'm making use of what time I have. Even if it isn't by studying...blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/05/08/ive-been-having-a-pretty-dodgy-semester

Reality check
First of all, my apologies for disappearing for the past few weeks. 4 mid-semester exams + a job that is ending (closing down) in a few weeks + attempting to have a life (and failing miserably) = a very cranky Luke. Houdini could learn something from my vanishing act. As the Easter break ends tonight, I […] -
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

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

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 […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/18/secret-diary-of-a-uni-student

Chapter Six: Toughen Up. (~jinghan)
Note from the author: I could be getting some well deserved sleep but this post is a week overdue, pretend I’m writing this five days ago. I’m agnostic. But if I believe in some God(dess) of fixed identity, then s/he is a very sly cheeky deity that answers prayers in the most obscure of ways. It was Wednesday […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/15/chapter-six-toughen-up-jinghan

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.

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 […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/03/11/second-week-withdrawals
