Bachelor of Arts<br />
(Media and Communications)<br />
Mayuca is completing a<br />
Bachelor of Arts (Media and<br />
Communications) and her<br />
dream job is to become a<br />
publicist for a movie star. Her<br />
favourite subjects are History<br />
and Journalism.<br />
For Mayuca, the best and most surprising<br />
thing about studying at Melbourne is the<br />
freedom she has had to learn about herself:<br />
her likes and dislikes, what she wa<strong>nts</strong> out<br />
of life.<br />
“The highlight of my experience at<br />
Melbourne was being able to write my<br />
thesis on whatever I like,” Mayuca said.<br />
During the first few months at Melbourne,<br />
Mayuca said she settled into the new culture<br />
very easily, thanks to the good friends she<br />
made in college. When she completes<br />
her degree, Mayuca plans to spend some<br />
time with her family in Sri Lanka and then<br />
return to Melbourne to apply for permanent<br />
residency and a full-time job.<br />

“I chose to write on celebrity culture – I<br />
never thought that anyone would take me<br />
seriously, but they did.”
