Welcome, or welcome back, to Strathclyde! Life may seem fantastic as the new semester commences, but over here in this corner, everything isn’t so rosy – it’s depressing and we are talking green.

For many of us starting university means moving out for the first time. Whether you are staying in halls or renting out a room in a shared flat, you have the chance to decorate your own space.

I’m at that age where acquaintances from secondary school are tying the knot left, right, and centre, and all I’m committed to is getting eight hours of sleep every night and convincing everyone I meet to invest in a bike. You, dear reader, are my most recent target.

Starting off in a new city can feel daunting – even though we do have Google Maps now to help navigate through the narrow streets of Glasgow.
