Orientation/enrolment a few days/weeks before the actual first day.

my first day of uni was soo freaking boring ...... don't expect uni to be exciting or anything ...... have low expectations and u'll have fun lol that was my mistake, i thought uni would be too much like the uni's in america... it's nothing at all like that!

yeh thats what i did in first semester, i thought first semester was a blast compared to how it is now (2nd semester)...... here's a tip DON'T DO EXTERNAL SUBJECTS! u miss out on the "uni experience" last year i'de be in the bar or hanging out at da back between classes...... now my social life consists of me going to uni only on wednesdays, fridays going to my psy and comp pracs, den going home... its full ah shit, goto uni, make sure theres breaks in between!

which is why i spread mine out over the week. i prefer the interaction with people all week, rather than only a few days. i also have avoided external units.
this time last year i didn't understand how uni worked - so you do about 4 subjects per semester. in each of those subjects you have lectures in the first week, but no tutes (generally, if you do law and actuarial i think you have them). in these lectures they MIGHT spend the first lecture telling you about the course, but other than that it's straight to work.
in the first lectures talk to as many randoms as possible - some of them will end up as your friends. also as the semester goes on it gets harder to talk to randoms because you're not 'new' anymore and feel stupid (hey, even in my tutes we don't talk to randoms anymore, no one does it so no one wants to be the first), also because people start finding friends and sticking with them.

Are u refering to the checking out fresh meat thing?
Don't worry glitterfairy, knowing the 2004 intake, all they do is the checking out...from really far far away. They don't do anything else besides that.
