1st year done and dusted...

I have finished my first year of my uni degree and must say that while it has been fun and exciting, it has been quite tough juggling children, study and the entire household throughout the year. I am a big fan of lists and reading lists like Bianca's so thought I would do a little list for some of things worth a mention about my experience at uni so far......

I have met so many fantastic people and formed some wonderful new friendships.

I've always been an avid reader but seriously have not read as much as I have this year

It has been an exciting year but quite tough when it comes to managing full time motherhood, full time study and a six person household...I am grateful to be able to access childcare and also have a mother to help me out big time

I really don't like Gloria Jean coffee at uni...it tastes like crap.

Uni is great for people watching

In a course for Human Services and Community Welfare...I learnt about  the social construction of sexuality, gender, deviance etc...and watched the strangest movie about people into S&M. It was an eye opener.

I love getting to uni early so I can spend time in the peace and quiet with no one around...plus if I go early I get a good park

Some lecturers are great and some are not.

Its frigging hard to choose which courses to enrol in each semester
