Marble effect nails are a super easy way to incorporate the recent nail art trend into your life. The method is no where near as messy as it looks and it gets rid of that pesky painting-with-your-left-hand business. For this effect you will need a cup of luke warm water, some tape, a cotton bud … Continue reading
As we’ve now settled into the new academic year, slowly getting ourselves used to the morning drag out of bed, it’s time to get back to work. If you can call watching owls take baths on YouTube work… Yes, that did happen. I’ve been studying Journalism for over a year now, and each day just … Continue reading
Well, the title of this post isn’t quite right as Bastille have been pretty freakin’ hot for quite a while now. After seeing them live at the beginning of this year they have really blown up, but have, for some unknown reason, been pushed to the back of my playlist. That was until now. Their … Continue reading
As it’s back to school/college time for the most of us, after a long blissful however-many-weeks off it’s time for me to get back into the early mornings and interaction with humans. As most of my morning is spent commuting, my iPod is my best friend and with less than 24 hours to go time … Continue reading
For anyone who knows me well knows that it will pain me to write this post. I finally went to see the film to the first book of The Mortal Instruments series after Sam finally gave in (and deemed it ‘better than Twilight’) however it really didn’t live up to my expectations. Don’t get me … Continue reading
Not many people can say this but I’ve fallen hard for my first love (again). Most people tend to let their first relationship fizzle out into nothing, barely remembering each other’s names. However, unlike others, my first love has been a huge part of my life, popping in and out when they so please, playing … Continue reading
Have you ever sat and thought about how much time we spend on here? If you’re reading this then you must be a fellow internet user/lover, but what would you do without it? Could you cope or would you be one of the many of us web crazed losers that would be curled up, rocking … Continue reading
We’ve all felt like this, whether it’s been whilst reading the last page of your favourite set of books or during the end credits of the final episode of the TV show you’ve been devoted to for the past 3 years; we’ve all felt this silly kind of emptiness. You all know what I mean. … Continue reading
Media Pressures – From a Girls Perspective The media is everywhere we look; magazines, TV the internet. It affects us all and we can’t escape it. From a young age we are introduced to the influences of the media. As soon as we’re out of the womb that’s it, we’re expected to conform to it. … Continue reading
Come on now, I’m not the only one who’s feeling like this. I’ve just finished my first year of Journalism at college and the time has come to actually start thinking about my future; surely I’m not the only teenager out of the thousands of us that doesn’t have a freaking idea what they want … Continue reading
We’ve all been there, yeah that’s right even you! There are many causes of this ‘Pissed Off Syndrome’. Jealousy, regret and quite frequently (in my case) failure are just a handful of the factors contributing to this wide spread condition. This serious, sometimes contagious illness often reduces interaction with humans, speech and in severe cases, … Continue reading
I write because I just do. It’s what I know. The urge to put pen to paper E is unavoidable. The idea of sharing my words with the world excites me; sharing my thoughts, feelings, loves and loathes. Expressing yourself using language personally chosen is like a form of artwork. Whether it be creative … Continue reading
“Are you sure you should be driving Zak” I said as I uneasily opened the door “We’ve both had a few too many” His face showed no concern or fear. “Man just chill, it’s only down the road” It wasn’t “We’ll be fine” We weren’t… As soon as my feet stepped inside Zak’s piss smelling … Continue reading
As always, the UK seems like the place to be this summer with many festivals offering great line ups. I shall start with local Leeds (and Reading) Fest. The festival is known for its rock and indie acts and never fails to disappoint. Last year’s headliners included the likes of Foo Fighters, the return of … Continue reading
After 3 months of longing for this gig, the four piece finally arrived at Leeds Stylus, a small venue that fits nicely in-between The Cockpit and Leeds O2. With a little help from the Big Apple’s boy-girl duo MSMR, my usually quiet Sunday night turned into, and quite rightly, one of the best gigs I’ve been to, … Continue reading
