The Biomedicine lectures were a godsend compared to the Commerce ones I went to. It was so bloody boring and quiet and I felt like falling asleep...whereas in Biomed, one particular presenter was cracking gun jokes throughout the whole session.

Didn't really meet anybody new, but explored the uni for a bit. Only had to wait literally 1-2 mins in line for my ID :)

It was really great! I was a bit worried that I wouldn't make it to things on time with sessions across the other side of the campus literally beginning at the same time another finished, but the presenters made sure they always finished a little bit early. Got some ideas on what breadth to do (the lecturer for Critical Thinking with Data is hilarious) and met heaps of new people. Shattered that I missed out on the Survival Guide that some people were handing out though. :(

My aim was to make at least 1 friend. I made two. I think today was a success.
I also Checked out the opposite sex and I liked what I saw.
I'm really looking forward to doing Linguistics, it sounds super interesting.
Today was a good day.

"Can I have yo numba?" should have been used multiple times on multiple people.

This is the best time.  At this time of the year, there are plenty of ice breakers you can use.

Warning: he's not that good of a physics teacher. Tries a bit too hard to be funny and doesn't spend enough time actually teaching.
