Yes folks, I knew that title would catch your attention. It’s true; at this point in time money does matter. Before I continue, I would like to emphasize money is not everything in life, living the moment and being able to be emotionally available and being able to love means much more than having a […]
It’s that time of the year when we start to look back and see what we have done or learnt in the past few months. As for me, these past few months were like a thrill packed roller coaster ride. I did a lot, met a lot of people, studied a lot, memorized a lot […]
ATTN: Every single American to ever become a student of University of Dundee. And I’m only speaking exclusively to Americans because I barely know how the rules relate to my own country (hence the pickle I was in), much less how the rules relate to any other country. On September 13, 2016 I moved to […]
Last Thursday the second year fine art students had a get together in the level 2 studio corridors to show off what they had achieved so far this semester. The corridor was converted into a gallery complete with drinks, snacks and posters around DJCAD inviting others to come and see the work produced so far. […]

As such, it was natural for me […]
After settling down in Dundee, the first thing I was told to do was to make friends! “Go make friends!” they say, but little do they know that it’s one of the hardest thing ever! Studies have found out that people who feel they are lonely tend to only notice extroverted people who seem to […]
My name is Navin! I am from a faraway land right in the heart of South East Asia – Singapore. Singapore is a fine country with good Schools, Universities and great quality of life. As such, it was not an easy choice for me to choose Dundee as my tertiary institution. For one, the temperature […]
So. Much. To. Do. Those four words echo through my head every morning as soon as I hear that buzz roar on my nightstand. The alarm clock on my cellphone interrupts my dreams buzzing loudly as if to remind me, “You haven’t applied for your Visa yet! Did you forget how important that is?” Or […]
Hey guys, my name is Simran and I am an international student who is a hybrid Indian by ethnicity but I grew up in the barren lands of the nomads- Oman. Now I am pretty sure most of you don’t know where Oman is, so let me give you a quick geography lesson. Oman is […]
