Fashion is Pain

My mother always had a saying when I was little, ‘Beauty is pain’, which never made sense to me when I was a child so I have no idea why it does now. I will struggle into that dress that stopped fitting me a year ago, wear sky-high heels which leave me wobbling home at [...]

Editors Box • Autumn 2013

I'd like to say welcome back everyone but it seems that boat has well and truly sailed. Did someone say week ten of semester is here? Oh, shut up!
In a way, this is nothing to complain about. It signals the light at the end of the tunnel for what was (to me) an incredibly difficult semester.
With the assessments piling up and exams nearing it seems as though our social lives have all but vanished.
Not to fret however. Just think, in a few weeks time you could be on an exotic island sipping on a fancy cocktail that the sexy bartender just poured you because as we all know it is what you deserve after all.
On another small note, Degreeº is working on becoming stronger than ever! We have many new concepts planned not only for this semester, but for the rest of the year. Its going to be exciting stuff!
More exciting though, is our open writers policy. Do you have an itch to write, design or edit? Write in and let us know! Until next time and cheers from your editor, Dragana.
