Nana Nap Saves Students’ Lives (Nicole)
If you’re feeling intense, or feeling exhausted in some way while at uni, go take a nana nap. Five to fifteen minutes does make a difference. I try to take about half an hour to an hour nana nap during my day, especially on the way to uni, because it really refreshes my mind after […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2016/03/21/nana-nap-saves-students-lives-nicole

Helloooo, it’s mee. It’s Nicole, from 2015 First_Year@UniMelb blog! Boy, it is great to be invited back to be a blogger for Back For Seconds, and boy it is already Week 3!

New Year, New Me (Bella)
Nothing like a cliche quote to announce my return, right? Hi everyone, this is Bella, from the 2015 First Year Blog! I can’t believe we are 3 weeks into uni already… I’ve already been to many parties… oh, and lectures and tutes, of course. Even though I’m in second year now, I still have those […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2016/03/16/new-year-new-me-bella

Holiday? What Holiday? (Hiruni)
After a hectic exam period and an almost non-existent vacation due to my summer subject (more on that later), it feels great to get back into blogging, especially if it means venting to all my readers! Part of getting my life back on track meant that I had to cancel some of my vacation time […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2015/03/06/holiday-what-holiday

A MAJOR Change (Phoebe)
The transition from a First to Second Year student has not been so much as a leap as a baby step. However, maybe that’s due to the fact I haven’t actually started classes to recognise any notable differences. One thing that is different though, is my new-found awareness that I need to start taking my […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2015/02/25/a-major-change-phoebe

Assignments
1. Psychology. The assignment was a 2000 word lab report about how individuals reach moral judgements and whether individual differences can manifest themselves to vary moral judgements across society. Would Person A reach the same moral conclusions as Person B, where A experiences more disgust and B prefers more cognitive activities than A? The lecturer arranged […] -
Last semester I wrote between ten and eleven thousands words of assessment in one week.
I am such a horrible last minute worker and almost all of my assessments were due in the first two days of the exam period. Yet, I plan on all assessments bar exams (which I can’t help) being done and dusted by October 31st. I’m not off to a good start: Instead of preparing for […] -
Almost there again [Daniel]
It seems weird to have done 4 years of uni, and still have another year to go. Not in a bad way or anything, just it’s hard to imagine doing anything else. I mean maybe it’s just the fact that I haven’t gone off and done those things, but it really seems as though to […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2013/01/29/almost-there-again-daniel

If I stay…. [Daniel]
I am probably going to end up spending a lot more money, living out of home. But if I leave to stay with my parents, I’ll be back at home – no longer independent, living the life of luxury and security. I won’t have to worry about anything, or stretch my bonds. I’ll be okay […] -
Who have I been? [Daniel]
There was a brief absence in my life where a semester seemed to take over everything. Not that it was bad mind you. It was just a collection of events that had me focused, busy and full of experiences. And so now I am deflated. No more Europe, no more five subjects, no more writing […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/12/10/who-have-i-been-daniel
