At JCH, and no doubt in many other forms of student housing, there are communal laundry machines. Two laundry machines, four dryers, and ninety-three students, to be exact. This creates ideal conditions for training negotiators for the prevention of the proliferation of nuclear warfare, for sharing laundry facilities is probably the number one cause of […]

I must say, I completely agree with Viv from the first year blog that arts students do leave things to the last minute, as this is what I have just done for my Public Policy paper and all of the other essays I have handed in so far this year.
But this forces me to ask […]

So, I ended up being re-elected as Secretary of the Music Students’ Society. Even though I made a resolution to quit so I’d have more time and less stress. Whoops.
As my mother would say, ‘Suzanne, you’re a good student, but once I get to know you you’re actually kind of stupid.’
Also, I thought I might […]

A handful of individuals. A nice meeting. I didn’t have much to say since I haven’t been keeping up with the blogs. I felt really bad. lol. Everyone was so into the blog and knew so much about the other bloggers.
It’s nice to see 1, 2, THREE second year bloggers, minus one, the omnipresent Sophie. ^^
My attention was […]

Well…life is really good right now. Of course; I am stressed with the fact exams are just weeks away and my exam timetable only gives me 2 days between each exam…but apart from that, I have met some really cool people lately and I am salivating at the thought of Europe!
Today I somehow managed to […]

I’m increasingly getting the feeling that my major should be in form filling out rather than history and politics - at least this is a more practical qualification.
At the moment everything in my life requires a form! Youth allowance, passport, irish citizenship, exchange applications for melbourne uni, exchange applications for dublin uni, application for an […]

They are well spaced out, which is great = more time to revise.
But my first exam is on the second day of the examination period and the last exam on the second last day of the examination period. Again, jealous of my other friends who finish early and get to go overseas.
Let’s begin the worry, […]

By popular request, an FAQ about SALP!
Here goes:
What the heck is SALP?
SALP stands for the Student Ambassador Leadership Program. It’s basically a program where the university takes students, gives them training, gets them to do community service, and declares them leaders afterwards.
Who’s it for?
Second year students and above.
So, um, why did you do it in […]

I booked my flights today for my exchange. I’m leaving on the 25th of June which feels very very soon! I get back on the 25th of Feb, so I’ll be away 8 months! It’s all getting a bit real and scary now.

Today was one of the days that I felt so lucky to come to Melbourne Uni. It started off with me spending 3 hours trying to work out how to get any funding to go towards my exchange, how to navigate Centerlink and then ringing up employers to help me work out how much money […]
