NovaAesa’s Weblog

As a bit of a preface, take note that this blog entry really should be before the one that I made last night. I kinda forgot to write this one before and no it’s somewhat of a jumbled mess. I’m sure you can all work it out though.

Anyway… as I’m sure many of you already know, I finished the High School Certificate last year and am off to uni this year. Living in rural Australia, there are obviously no universities near where I live so I had to move. I didn’t really have much of a problem with this though, because I don’t really like Kempsey all that much anyway. I pretty much had a choice of whatever uni I wanted to go to (my UAI was high enough to do engineering wherever I wanted to). I choose to go to The University of Newcastle though for quite a few reasons, even though it’s not the best in Australia (don’t get me wrong, Newcastle Uni is still pretty good). Firstly, my older sister goes there doing a double Science/Arts degree, and also I have lots of extended family in the region. I have an Aunt and cousins in Maitland, and my grandparents live on the central coast. Most of my friends (the ones that count anyway , sorry Corey) go there as well.

So yeah, Software Engineering at Newcastle Uni, should be exciting. xD

Oh right the other half of the story. Okay okay I’m getting to that now. I moved into a share house with a few of my friends from school, Simon and Dan. The other people staying here are a girl our age called Kate (she’s pretty nice) and a mature aged student called Ha. She’s only here on weeknights though, because she goes back to Sydney to be with her husband and kids on the weekends.

Anyway, that’s about it for now. Maybe I will write a bit more about it later when I’m not feeling so sleepy. Being a uni student is hard work (or maybe it’s just me trying to get used to waking up at 7am :S)
