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, […] -
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 […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/02/10/cristina-s-and-the-chamber-of-secrets

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 […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/01/25/is-it-greedy-to-be-ambitious-daniel

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 […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2011/01/22/only-a-month-left-daniel

A Ghost town of activity[Daniel]
The internet cookies tumbled through the town like a bunch of tumbleweed, a haunting reminder of the promise this small town had in the corner of the internet. Some of them become entangled in my boots, grabbing on wondering if they could leave with me. I didn’t bother with a reply, or getting rid of […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/07/16/a-ghost-town-of-activitydaniel

Confessions of a (bad) blogger [Ankita]
Correction: Bad may not be the appropriate word. But with what word (adjective more specifically) do you associate someone who hasn’t posted a single blog entry in ages (strong aussie accent on “ages”.. hehe!) Uni 2.0: So you would think you’re going to have a better work ethic in second year, attend more lecture/tutes… more […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2010/05/16/confessions-of-a-bad-blogger-ankita

Transition time. [nicola]
Does anyone out there feel old? Wandering around campus yesterday for O-week to sign up for various clubs etc (union/gym)… and to post up various ‘textbooks for sale’ on random subject related walls (buy my textbooks!) – I noticed various friends of my brother (2yrs junior to me) checking out the rowdy and enjoying various […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2009/02/25/transition-time-nicola

To all incoming music students, music-as-breadth students, and other students with even a vague interest in music: We, the Melbourne University Music Students’ Society, have a whole bunch of awesome things planned for you over the coming week.

Done! And all alone now… (Suzanne)
I finished my last exam today. It was pretty bad because I never even started the 4th essay although I’m pretty sure I nailed the other three so it should still be a pass. Maybe even an H2B with a lot of luck. Anyway, as I was walking out of the Royal Exhibition Building, I […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/11/26/done-and-all-alone-now-suzanne

Ten things university has taught me. (Suzanne)
10. ‘Nothing gets my room cleaner than a paper due tomorrow’ – Facebook. 9. Grades in class are proportional to how much you enjoy the class. 8. You don’t need to actually know anything about your essay topic to write a great essay. 7. The more subjects you take, the less you will learn – […]blogs.unimelb.edu.au/seconds/2008/05/17/ten-things-university-has-taught-me-suzanne
