How were your first days (or first days back)? (1 Viewer)

Well I've been bumming around today, no classes

But yesterday was pretty overwhelming, like it actually hit me that I go to uni now!

The lecture was what I expected, so I wasn't disappointed when I got bored.

And the rain! I pretty much kicked off my shoes because it got too slippery and ran across the McKinnon lawn area, and then sitting in that god damn shuttle bus slipping over even more!!!

Well I'm excited to start my BCM subjects, apparently we get marked on our blogging, so thats pretty cool!!

Woke up at 7 after 2.5 broken sleep. Got in, and hung with the people I had come in with. Went of to my first class that finish 1/2hour early. Then went of to help assist the Stage Manager of the first year performance show (he had classes on). Then went to uniBar with first years to drink, play pool etc. Then went back home, when friends were leaving at 7.30. Long Day; fell asleep at 11:30pm.

I'm loving my third year. Something clicked in my head and I am actually doing my uni work. Pretty enjoyable actually.

sat in a class with 1st years who tried to argue with the lecturer, and one who kept referencing irrelevant things like the da vinci code.


face palming my way through my 5th year haha

I thought people in BCM would be heaps friendly but no one talked to me
Oh well, it was still bludges of lectures!

Oh, he is an awesome lecturer. Someone almost lost an eye when I was in his class.

Although, I have been told that after first year, his lectures are boring.

you might find that people are more willing to talk in tutorials, more group work, seminar presentations for example often have to be paired and there is much more opportunity for discussion.

on the other hand, sit next to and talk to someone who is also on their own, bcm is a pretty cliquey degree but noone is going to bite your head off for trying to start a conversation!

I got overloaded into BCM102 on Tuesday at 12:30, and BCM101 at 5:30 on a Wednesday!
And for commerce subjects, MGMT110 4:30 on Wednesday, and MARK101 at 2:30.

I hate the late finish on Wednesdays soooo much!

MGMT110 4:30 on Wednesday, and MARK101 at 2:30.

Both of these are incredibly easy. I didn't got to lectures or buy the book, and got a C for MARK and a D for MGMT. My MGMT essay recieved almost full marks.

Wow
Well i'm thinking if I need to miss the lecture it will be okay, because all the slides are on there anyway.
I still don't even know what i'm supposed to do, like do I go and read the chapter the lecture was on last week and make notes, or what?

 

[H S C]

[Absolutezero]

Some classes would have small tasks already due. Mostly homework-y sorts of things.
