So, here we are. It’s almost the end of an era, our era – the Noughties. In ten years, so many changes have taken place which have defined our way of living and dictated our style, our choices and our projection onto the outer world.

There has been a lot of security lately at LCC. Obviously it is due to all the recent protests and sit-ins because of this year’s restructuring of the college and course cuts, but is it really necessary?

With knots in my stomach I knocked on the imposing door of a beautiful Georgian style town house.

We all know how our beloved capital can be terribly expensive at times, especially for cash-poor students; so this week we have decided to review things you can do and places you can go for free (or for just a couple of quid, promise!)

L’uomo Vogue cover star Kobe Bryant is just another example of how fashion publications have sport as one of their main inspirations.

Sometimes, the red light of a recording camera worries people. The camera does not lie, distort or hide anything, and anyone who has had an embarrassing photo or video of themselves put up on Facebook or YouTube (is there anyone who hasn't?) knows how humiliating it is to have their worst moments captured and shown to the world.

Who doesn’t love winter? I for one, have always been a fan of the cold weather - it brings to mind an idyllic vision of me snuggled up on a couch, hot chocolate and Agatha Christie novel in hand, in front of a fireplace while it’s snowing outside.

This summer, prior to starting my third year of this BA Journalism course, I had been watching season five of The Wire, being one of my favourite television shows. I watched how the editors and reporters on the show dealt with the daily events and stories of a major American city. I thought to myself: "Will it be similar to this in the Arts London newsroom when I’m there soon?"

When in London do as the Londoner's do, or risk getting trampled on in the streets by fast moving pedestrians. With the influx of fresh-faced, new UAL students having arrived on campus over the last month, this week we have focused on educating ourselves about the brilliant city that surrounds us with recommendations and fun facts galore.

This week, I decided to start going to the gym after more than two years without setting foot inside one. I like to think being the online sports editor influenced my decision.
