Auckland Life
More than just Math and Physics
https://youtu.be/ErnO6w4nj04 Hey Guys! I realize this vlog is kind of a mess and I moved and flew around the screen so much DDD: but I was real nervous so forgive me! (I'll probably stick to written posts in the future since this one was such a disaster aaah!) 😭...
Lost in the crowd
If I were to ask you, “Who are you?” how would you respond? If I were to ask you, “What is the mark left on this world?” what would you say? If I were to ask you, “What makes you significant?” would you be able to give me an answer? -- Let me share a little story...
Chapter One.
"Let this be the first chapter of your new novel" You may have heard something along these lines before and it's an overused and corny saying, I know, but how accurate is it? When I started primary school, high school and now entering tertiary study- my first week...
New Beginnings
Hey! Welcome to my first blog! If you're anything like me, you're reading this because you honestly have no idea what university life is about and are seeking answers to questions you can't even formulate. Maybe you're coming to Auckland from overseas like I did or...
Oh, what a week
The first week of uni, oh what a week it has been. Meeting new people, discovering new places and finding out about all the fun and very expensive books you need. These first days of your uni life will include some of the most memorable experiences of your life....
The O-Week Extravaganza
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq9iF0iFurs Hi Everyone, Sorry for making such a long video, but I had plenty to say about my first week at University Hall. Feel free to skip to the parts that interest you. 1:15 - Friendship 5:00 - Hall of Residence O-Week...
Opening a New Book
Heya! Sophie from O’Rorke here and as I write this, we have already reached the end of O Week *gasp!* Almost from the get go, Auckland has offered so many exciting new exploring opportunities! Coming from the small (but pretty!) city of New Plymouth in Taranaki,...
The introvert’s guide to O’Week
Hellooo there! I’m Cecilia, nice to meet you 😊 (I am aware that I’m not actually meeting you... but I’m assuming it would be nice!) *looks around* Wait. Lean in a bit closer. I have a secret to tell you. … I spent about an hour trying to think of an interesting...
Let’s Do This!
*cue Lose Yourself by Eminem* Hey there! My name is Lily and I am so excited to be an Inside Word Blogger for 2018! I’m currently studying health science and staying in the beautiful UHA. My aim is to make you feel prepared about going to the University of Auckland...
The Week That Was!
A bunch of first year University students spending all of their student loan money on drinks, sleeping till noon and hiding away in their new room. This common perception couldn’t be further from my experience of the often talked about, but little understood...
Autobots, Roll Out (and other sentimentalities)
Lucky last, from Tate.
Thoughts ????????
Lately, I've been reminiscing a lot about home and the people I've left behind. One memory in particular that I seem to keep going back to is when my mom took my sister and I to New York City to watch Aladdin on Broadway. It's my favorite Disney movie, you see....
Light Up My World
It’s that time of the semester again where I begin missing home. Maybe it’s the fact that finals are fast approaching, in a couple weeks, and I feel overwhelmed with the amount of information I still have to go over. Whatever it is, I couldn’t let myself stay...
Taking Advantage of Opportunities!
I'm a big advocate for taking part in extracurriculars and branching out from the humdrum that is Uni-life. Going to town every weekend and lectures every weekday can get so tiresome, once you've fallen into a routine that only consists of these two. So, here's my...
A Trip to the Hospital
What’s worse than the knowledge that mid-semester tests are in a week? Knowing that you can’t take them because you’re STUCK in the HOSPITAL. Don’t worry guys, it’s not me whose being forced to don a flimsy gown and remain bedridden, but my lovely friend. She’s got...
