Prepare for a rough couple of weeks. Adjusting to that much new stuff is a pain. Plus, everything that can go wrong will go wrong! I remember on my very first night in the dorms, the fire alarm went off at 4:45 AM. I lived on the 13th floor, and elevators don't work during a fire alarm. Fun!

My freshman year I was too lazy to get up and eat breakfast, so I would eat a granola bar on the way to class. Granola bars, pop tarts, and ramen are all good suggestions already mentioned. Peanut butter and crackers/bread might be good too. I'd also recommend you get one of those nalgene hard plastic water bottles, or just disposable one that you reuse. Never know when you're gonna be thirsty in class or walking around.

Oh, and Vegemite.

UWS Bankstown in Milperra. Was the only course I was able to get in to with my ATAR that had the best classes I could take so it would be easier for me to transfer to ANU next year.


Why not sydney uni or unsw? From what i've seen in the uni thread, it's not worth moving to canberra, even if it is ranked no.1.

I prefer the academics and facilities of ANU over USyd/UNSW.

Tea. At least camomile and some other herbal stuff in case you catch a cold or some stomach thing.

Painkillers. The one thing you'd forget about unless it's sunday and you have the worst headache of your life.

Be Asian.

50KG of rice

Go to Costco and buy pasta/spaghetti.

Get some cheap olive oil.

Beans/Spices/Salt/the basic stuff...

Thing all you have to do is do a weekly meat/vege shopping.

Don't eat too much ramen, unhealthy and when you do need it you can always burrow from your room mate :D

DRINKS. LOTS OF DRINKS.
Other things (no particular order):
1. TV dinners (if you can have a fridge)
2. potstickers (omfg <3, also if u have a fridge/freezer)
2. snack foods, chips, salsa, funions, etc...
3. easy stuff to bake (brownies/cookies/etc...)
4. toilet paper (most universities have the shittiest, hardest, toilet paper which is a bitch, you'll miss charmin extra soft once u dont have it)
5. ethernet cord (my university promised wireless internet everywhere on campus, apparently my dorm room was just in the spot that didn't offer such a luxury)

If you have a fridge/freezer/stovetop, I recommend making a fresh curry once a week to last the rest of the week. It freezes well amd can be adjusted to any budget. You can just reheat some and cook some rice every evening.

GL getting to ANU. Which area do you want to study?

Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

Most of the world is lactose intolerant to some extent, except for people of white European ancestry.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

Rice
Canned tuna/salmon
Onions
Whatever spices you like

As long as you have those things you can basically buy anything and mix it in and it won't taste too bad.
