Hello Cameron Thach, 19 years old, 2nd bachelor of commerce

There is so much judgment of Macquarie University I don’t understand why because it’s a good place to be. The environment around Macquarie University is so relaxed and chill, everyone just gets along so easily. I started studying at Macquarie University straight after high school because parents have always wanted me to go, expecting it to be the same as high school I found it completely different. I like the work load that is provided by Macquarie because it truly pushes you to do think for yourself. The good thing about Macquarie University or any University for that matter is the fact that you start fresh, even though I did bad in high school no one cares about my past. 

Hello Charles Li, 20 years old, 2nd year Commerce

Currently doing bachelors of Commerce with a major in marketing, originally inspired and following the example of my brother in law. Thinking back then when I was forced to come up with an answer for my future career at the age of 16 during high school, I wondered then where I'll be by the age of 40, could I end up with some dead end job or will I be doing something truly meaningful with my life. I could say that I was a cut above average student but had little ambition for the future. Now that I'm in my second year, what do I think of what I'm doing?.. well it's not turning out too well so far, as I'm losing any and all sort of passion for it. I'm kind of stuck in the mud until next year when I have enough points to transfer to another course. Well aside from my slightly depressing side of my life, I manage to stay healthy, maintain a "somewhat" social life as I'm still in contact with my friends from high school and thanks to Macquarie university's  diverse way of allowing people to connect whether it will be through societies, group activities or events, I have met a lot of friendly people. Also, as a hobby I like to play billards.

Hello Tristan Bongolan, 18 years old, 1st year Engineering

Ohhh man! Uni life is hectic in many ways! I'm studying Engineering w/ Arts as a Double Degree, Majoring in Mechanical and also Japanese. I could say that it's pretty enjoyable and really challenging at the moment. In my spare time I like to relax and have some down time with some of my mates back from High school! Also, hitting the bar every now and then and playing sports and video games are also some of the things I enjoy out of university. Doing an engineering degree really takes a lot of days from our week. I have to be at uni for at least 4 days a week with an early start on each day. I usually wake up late so I usually just leg it to the bus in order to get a spot at Physics labs. If I'm not at Uni, I would most likely be working at my part time job soo... yeah only a tad busy.

Hello Long Lam, 18 years old, 1st year Engineering Diploma

First year university is going alright I guess. STA150 is alright in terms of content, but the other students are so talkative and the teacher really doesn't do anything about it so it gets really annoying. ISY114 is pretty chill, the content is somewhat interesting and everyone who talks just jokes around a lot and it's a good time for a university class. University life kinda sucks right now, since its 4 hours of travelling a each day I have classes. Currently 4 days a week this term as well. Out of university I usually hang out with my friends who are interested in cars. We cruise somewhere around Sydney a lot at least once a week and hope not to get defected for our sick mods like blastpipes. I also enjoy going to the gym and making sick gainz, currently my pb's are squat 110kgs, bench 70kgs, and deadlift 140kgs.

Hello Sowil Mahmood, 19 years old, 2nd year Software Engineering

 I started studying at Macquarie University straight after my summer break in 2014. First I was excited to come “a new beginning” however I found it difficult to approach people because my nervous always got in the way. It wasn’t like high school where you knew everyone, every turn I made there was new faces appearing. The good thing about Macquarie University is that they connect people through different group activities, society and events which helps break the tension. “Ubar is awesome the drinks are decent and it’s a good place to hang around”. The one thing I hate about University is the bloody work load, they went through my 2 years of maths studies in high school within half a semester! Once you fall back it’s hard to keep up again. I didn’t expect it to be this much, im just barely keeping up.

Hello Danny Kim, 20 years old, 1st year Bachelor of Business

I started university at UWS and changed over to Macquarie University however im doing the same degree, Bachelor of Business. I love the snack pack from the kabab store, it fills me up and its “sooooooo delicious” the food court alone is where I relax and hang out with my friends maybe even drink abit before class. I don’t care too much about a lot of things and education was never on the top of my list however since I entered university it was like another level of education! I was struggling every single day trying to understand the context, afraid to stick my hand up and make a fool out of myself. I guess that’s why university is so much different to high school. University forces you to grow up and think for yourself.
