10 reasons we wish we could go back to our college days
Ah college, you served us well. Now that we have entered the dreaded real world, we have come to appreciate the time we spent in college, lazing away and occasionally strolling around the library.
Here are some of the things we are still mourning about college life:
1. It’s still socially acceptable to be an immature eejit
Not a girl, not yet a woman.
2. College is the last time you’ll have absolutely zero responsibility
The only task you have is to pass your exams, everything else ultimately ends up in the care of someone else.
3. It’s okay to scrounge off your parents
You can call up your parents and ask them for rent (beer) money without hesitation, and they will usually give in to your request.
4. You don’t mind drinking cheap beer and vodka
Tesco finest vodka and gin and maybe some Buckfast for good measure.
5. You don’t work a full-time job
Because you can’t. Hello, we have tutorials. Zzz…
6. Having the freedom to come and go as you please
Missed a lecture? It’s graaaaand, you’ll totally make it next week. But you miss work ONE time and they freak. What’s the deal?
7. Not having mind-crushing hangovers
Remember when you could down a naggin and wake up singing? Us neither, puuuke!
8. It was still somewhat somewhat acceptable to take weird drunken photos.
Now you’ll never get hired if these hit your newsfeed…
9. You enjoy living weekend to weekend
Before you started working full time, you could party anytime you like, now it’s strictly Friday and Saturday nights. How dull.
10. 4 months off in the summer
Ah, them were the days. This gem even inspired a lot of us to become teachers, you know.

Kim’s gorgeous wedding make-up has been revealed
We have to admit it, Kim Kardashian looked absolutely stunning on her wedding day and Mr. West himself didn’t look too bad either!
However, it’s Kim make-up that has us interested. As always, it was completely flawless and not a lash or brow hair was out of place.
While we automatically assumed the make-up she went with would have cost a fortune, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that it actually didn’t.
Her make-up artist Mario Dedivanovic has revealed the products he used for the big day including L’Oreal Paris L’Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick by Color Riche a snip at €13.49 and Urban Decay eyeliner called Ink for Eyes at a mere €20.00
For her lashes, Kim also went with Urban Decay. She wore Perversion Mascara which isn’t even out, so she got it exclusively for her wedding.
Finally, ever one to promote her own brand, the now Mrs Kardashian West went with Kardashian Beauty Individual Eyelashes.
We all now have some hope of emulating her beauty!

Hey, Ed Sheeran! Taylor Swift just admitted she’s jealous!
Taylor Swift has admitted that she is jealous of Ed Sheeran’s voice.
We know, we wanted her to be jealous of a girl too, but let’s face it, these two are never, ever gonna happen. Ever.
In a glimpse of Ed’s MTV documentary Nine Days and Nights, Taylor can be seen saying she is super jealous of Ed’s smooth voice, “The first thing that struck me was his voice. I’ve never been more jealous of anything in my life.”
Aww, we love Ed’s voice too, Taylor!
Ed supported Taylor on her Red tour last year and the two became very close with much speculation that they were dating.

Astronauts show the strength of friendship as crowd cheers on
A big hug is an unbeatable cure for lots of things – even a tricky question that could have easily rocked the boat big time.
When a reporter for a Russian television station asked the question, “Is there any place for politics in space?” these three International Space Station crew members from three different countries didn’t need words to answer.
Instead, Alexander Gerst of Germany, Maxim Suraev of Russia and American Reid Wiseman let their love do the talking with a heartwarming group hug.
“This is our answer” Reid Wiseman said in Russian.
“Yes, this is our answer for everyone to see,” Suraev added.
The display of international friendship took place at a news conference in Kazakhstan this week on the eve of the crew’s departure for a six-month mission at the International Space Station.
We love it!
