Law
Dedication to Organisation
One week and 3 tests are what stands between me and 2 weeks of freedom. Freedom from multiple chapters to read a night, the 8am wake ups for politics lectures and the guilt of watching Netflix when I should be studying. In order to make it through this...
Facing and Conquering Homesickness
Uni is a big deal in more ways than one. Having to cultivate a new group of friends, get used to how large the lecture theatres are, and ultimately, adapt to a brand-new academic environment. For many of us, it’s not necessarily just a new city but also a whole new...
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,...

Tate's got some (more) study tips to help you out with First Year Law!
Answering the big question, why?
In this I answer the many 'why' questions in regards to why I chose to do things and end up in this position. I hope to use this in order to help anyone looking to study and live in Auckland in future. So why? Why Auckland? Why Law, Politics and French? Why...
Anything can happen.
Recently I have found myself really not myself. I have been on and off sick for a while and now my body just seems to have hit by a train. These last couple of weeks have been interesting though as some unexpected things have happened like I THINK I'M SWITCHING...
Big *Months and Mooting
Tate vlogs about mooting, and talks about how she underestimated the length of time she'd be on the grind for. (All positive, though. She's loving it.)
First Glance, Second Semester
A run-down on how Tate feels about what she's studying this semester.

As you can probably tell by all the post we are reaching that very fun time of year, EXAM SEASON!!! In the week leading up to exams I am housesitting my Aunty and Uncle's place while they are away overseas, taking care of a very lovable old doggo named Pepper. The...
THE 411 ON 121: LAW AND SOCIETY
https://youtu.be/I180ZvMys3w Hey, team! I was going to write a post on all four of my papers this semester, but then the "paragraph" I wrote on Law 121 turned into a behemoth, so I thought – hey – let's give it its own time to shine. I'll likely cover my Arts...
Busy? Kinda, maybe, very…
You know in High School when you reach the last couple of weeks of term and all your teachers have simultaneously decided to give you all your assessments and tests at once? That is exactly what seems to be happening to me. Now I have to count my blessings as one...
Waiting on Mid Semester like…
"Woah! We're half way there, wooooahhh..." Almost Mid Semester (kinda works). Yes, I can take comfort in the classic Living on a Prayer as I watch my calender quickly near Mid Semester break. Bit sad that I am already counting down the days but I am keen for a...
