Soundcheck: Heaven in a Wheelbarrow (& A Bluegrass Band)

If anybody reading this has seen me in the wild, then they’ll know that I have something of an attraction towards cowboys. I dress like one, I’m as broke as one, and if I could ride horses, then I’d probably live like one. Unfortunately, I’m neither tough nor talented enough to actually be one, but […]

Recipe: Girl Dinner 

It’s important to note that ‘girl dinner’ is extremely subjective. It is different for everyone, and varies on your levels of energy, motivation, finances, and total personal value (amongst others). That being said, let’s get into my personal dinner.  Playlist: Do not listen to any music, just open Spotify and hit play on the Smosh […]

Opinion: Chris 1, 2, and 3 are really against misogyny (6’4” btw) 

Step aside, DC’s Trinity: There’s a new superhero trio on the block. They’re tough, they’re righteous, and they’re fighting the toughest crime of all: misogyny. Who are the brave warriors behind this triumvirate? Why, it’s none other than Chris Hipkins, Chris Luxon, and Chris Bishop. That’s right, the fifth wave of feminism is being spearheaded […]

The Backseat Lovers: When We Were Friends 

When we were friends is The Backseat Lovers’ 2019 debut album, an indie, slightly pop-rocky-y lyrical exploration of being 18-20, learning about people and the world, and having wonderful experiences whilst being not too sure on what to think of them.   The album opens with ‘Watch Your Mouth’, a song about wanting to help someone you love get through something, before moving onto ‘Pool House’, a story […]

COMPX202 Mobile Computing and Software Architecture 

It is the first week back at uni (yay) and I had nothing better to do. Actually that is a lie, I was assigned three practicals on my first day back that I had to complete by the end of the week but instead of doing that, I decided to attend a random lecture. You’re welcome. So here is a completely […]

Horoscopes – Issue 16

Aries: Have you thought about cancelling that gym membership? When was the last time you actually went?  Cancer: Do not go anywhere near the library stairs this week. You will be cursed to fall down them.  Aquarius: Consider the fact that doing the readings for class might actually help you pass whatever you’re doing.  Sagitarius: Clean your fucking […]

PSYCH101 – Social Psychology, Health and Well-being 

Do I know if someone has already done a random audit on this class? Absolutely not, and I don’t care. This dumbass, meaning me, was going to audit another class only to find out that the lecture does not exist. I won’t be taking questions on how I managed that. So, after a quick scramble, I land in Psychology […]
