Seeing where my program will lead me was very encouraging.

I went to the Term 1 O-Week with my friends and it was such a great experience!

There was so many students in yellow shirts helping and asking questions for anyone who was lost. There was so many stalls and people promoting their clubs and societies. Of course, the best part was getting all the free things! There were free coffee milk, energy drink, skincare and so much more. My friend and I spun a lot of wheels and won many prizes. Our bag was almost full with goodies. It was informative talking to the different staff and current students at UNSW. They answered a lot of questions and they were approachable and easy to talk to.

Arc was handing out ice cream and plants and there were so many different clubs to join. I have a lot of hobbies so I went to the kendo, AnimeUNSW and Nintendo Society booths and asked them about the type of activities they have for students. I want to join these clubs as I think I’ll be able to make lots of new friends who share my hobbies too.

I am very excited for the next stage of my journey and can’t wait to go to UNSW Sydney!
