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

Positive Emoticons. (Candy)
Life is coming up roses. And you know what the most fascinating thing about it all is? Skimming over all the facets of my current existence, it doesn’t necessarily fall into the ‘perfect’ category. And yet way back when, when certain aspects WERE running smoothly, I always felt like something was missing. It really does […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/04/29/positive-emoticons-candy

Day in the life of.
Friday. 6am. Slam my palm in the general direction of my beeping phonebrick: miss, slam again. Clothes. Kettle. Lunch. Face. Breakfast. Milk out of date as of today. Seems alright. Remember I can’t drink caffeine. No chamomile tea left. Putting on the kettle was redundant. Blast. Keys. Wallet. Phone. Bag. Sprint from my front door […] -
A tipping point?
Maybe I wasn’t cut out for uni to begin with? I feel like everything is over my head, and that I should understand things better… On the other hand, I’ve only done Psych for three weeks, so perhaps I should be less hard on myself. But I look at this project – only 1000 words! […] -
Sugar High. (Candy)
“I can’t do this anymore.” The rich chocolate now leaving a horrible aftertaste in my mouth, I put down the hedgehog slice and tried to forget about the fact that I had, once again, induced a headache from excessive sugar consumption. Today – it was a white mocha and hedgehog slice from Plush Fish. I’ve […] -
A calling [Daniel]
There’s a certain period of time where things start to nip and jab at your subconscious, whether it be about the way a certain girl [or guy, I can be open minded…. not in that way though …..] looks at you, the words in a job advertisement coincide with the smile on your face, or […] -
Ruminating on Plans Gone Awry – Money, Moving, VTAC Offers
This is a post about being a good sister (*cough*martyr*cough) and not getting your own way. I’ve been living with my boyfriend for the past six months in a lovely mansion – a heritage listed one, no less – that he rents with 4 other friends. Rent has been very cheap for me and my […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2012/01/16/ruminating-on-plans-gone-awry-money-moving-vtac-offers

A fresh start
I’m fairly certain I have ADD…. I can’t seem to choose one degree and stick to it…. I think it’s mainly because post-grad law is where my passion truly lies. I guess I should explain! I’ve now transferred to Commerce (still at Melbourne Uni), so Im starting over as a first-year…. again! I’ve always known I […]
