Thanks to a small, independent, low-budget movie that you may or may not have heard of, hangovers have become somewhat of a fashion. Whilst I enjoyed seeing a sweaty and dishevelled Bradley Cooper running around the Las Vegas desert as much as the next person, for us mere mortals, a...
Find That Fresher!
posted by Callum Ewing
So it’s a new year for those of us at uni, and as such, we’ll all be looking for a new game to pass the time. Well, if you’re embarking on your second year, I’ve got a right treat for you! We are all familiar with the popular Where’s Wally book...

posted by Nathan O'Neill
I‘m sorry to have to be the party pooper here. This list so far has been all fun and games. Gnoming, Sleeping around, Spending your money; what more could you want? But unfortunately, that’s not why you’re at university. At some point in your Uni career / 3-year-long...
Freshers’ Week
posted by Guy Vero
The majority of freshers will adorn themselves with as many different articles of freshery as possible, such as a freshers’ guide, freshers’ wristband, freshers’ badge, freshers’ t-shirt and various other freshers’ paraphernalia. This is an attempt to...

posted by Rachel Taylor
University is a social haven for first years; no-one knows anything about you, you can start afresh and make new first impressions (But bear in mind this may turn you into that guy). University is also a place where people hook up. Multiple times. So why not push the boundaries of...

This article has also been featured in a University magazine. Below is an edited version that will hopefully be more general! Why do women have such small feet..? Usually, this joke is followed up by some derogatory comment. However, I put it to you that having small feet is an...
Picking Up Girls
posted by Chris Williams
First, it is important that I express my level of expertise on the matter. I have, at least once during my life, experienced the act of copulation first hand. My actual ‘first hand’ has experienced much more, unfortunately. For your reading convenience I have written four...

Gnoming is an art. Few possess the guts, nerve, persistence, stamina or stupidity to emerge victorious from a round of gnoming. I however, would not hesitate to label myself as one of the all time greats. As a pioneer of the naked gnome, I frequently push the boundaries of what is...

posted by Joseph O'Neill
We have so far given you a pretty extensive list of what kinds of things you can expect to be doing at Uni. Things such as drinking, gnoming, and sexing, but hopefully never all three at the same time. Nonetheless, prepare yourself for an article so true, so witty, and so hilarious...

For all you non-students out there, whether you’re still enjoying the innocence of GCSEs or you’re part of broader society and work full-time, you might be wondering why this time of year brings a massive influx of Facebook statuses along the lines of “I’m so...

It’s hard being student. Really, it is. Not only do we have to contend with this whole ‘work’ thing, but our mummies aren’t even there to help us eat and clean and things. Those people in the featured image to the left sure look happy though, so as someone who...
Writing Essays

Christmas has passed, New Year’s has come and gone and for many of us the evil spectre of essays is fast threatening your firstborns and disturbing your family seances. What follows is not so much a guide to sending these ethereal beasts back into the underworld, but it should...
Housemates
posted by Rachel Taylor
In an ideal world, housemates would behave like the cast of Friends; slightly dysfunctional but work well as a group and, let’s be honest, who wouldn’t want to share a house with Jennifer Aniston? Unfortunately, in the real world this is not the case. As much as you know...

Sometimes, our articles are appreciated outside of our tight-knit TrendFlux community. These are known as ‘good days’. Just recently an Oxford-based magazine asked to feature Guy Vero‘s article about Freshers’ Week. Here is an edited version that is more...
Pimping Your Uni Roo...
posted by Chris Williams
Please forgive me for slanting this article somewhat towards the late teens/early 20s; I figured if you’re 12 years old, you either don’t know what a pimp is or aren’t interested in the opposite sex yet. If your 30 and up, I’m sure you have more important things to worry about,...
Being Socially Accep...
posted by Rachel Taylor
In today’s society, it has become apparent that you have to fit a certain mould to be deemed ‘socially acceptable’, and this is all the more emphasized at university. Most people bang on about how university is the place where you can be yourself, do what you want to do...
Unemployment
posted by Clare Greenwood
The thing that no one tells you is that the University years – yes, those years you can barely remember because you were either drunk, passed out, or sitting in a mind numbing lecture – are the peak for you. But no one wants to admit it. There’s this adult myth that your...

It has recently come to my attention that I am currently overdrawn on my overdraft, which I assume will place me in amongst the most poverty stricken, low life, debt ridden individuals to have ever opened a bank account with Lloyds TSB. Although I may be just shy of hustling for...
