The student perfectionist

I HAVE a tendency, when anyone asks, “Don’t you think you’ve taken on a bit much this year?”, to wave a hand and laugh, trying to hide the fact that the laugh is forced and slightly tinged with hysteria. “I’m fine!” I say and rush off to change my stash for the third time that […]

Veganuary

It’s been nearly seven years since I stopped eating meat, and I have to say that I don’t miss it (usually); this month, I’m taking on Veganuary for the first time. The initiative, launched in the UK in January 2014, encourages people to go vegan for the first month of the year, to “reduce the […]

Travelling on a budget

When it comes to booking a trip away, be it alone or with friends, we’re all guilty of occasionally leaving a few things until the last minute. And this can rack up costs if you’re not planning carefully. Firstly, you should be savvy when arranging your travel to and from your destination. By using sites […]

The trials and tribulations of 21st Century dating

Is there any such thing as an “organic” relationship these days? With seemingly everyone on Tinder (or at least periodically re-downloading and deleting it again in disgust, don’t look at me), at least one friend per week seeking advice about what someone’s cryptic Facebook message means and a weird reticence from all directions to just […]

Term two blues

Over half way into term two and it’s feeling…long. We’ve come down from the high of the New Year and settled in to new timetables and work being flung at us from all angles. And for those with dissertations still to write? Don’t even start. Excited to see your housemates again after the holiday? Think […]

Shaping up

New Year, New Us? Maybe. As usual, it seems like “getting fit” is once again on everyone’s list of New Year’s Resolutions. It might last a few days, a few weeks or miraculously the whole year and beyond. Whilst we should bear in mind that these resolutions aren’t the be all and end all marker […]

The Yemen crisis: an unreported conflict

Between other events in the Middle East taking precedence, and a glaring media silence, the chances are that you haven’t heard that much about the current crisis in Yemen. Over the last two years of brutal warfare, Yemen has been driven to desperation, as conflicts have decimated health, water and sanitation systems, meaning that disease […]
