“The Magazine Guys”


So, where were we folks? Yeah, I was making some comments on my present Uni life, but I believe that opinionated 20 –something year olds that think they've learnt everything about life over 3 years in University is the most amusing thing and making a magazine is another amusing thing. But let's take things from the start.

3 years of University, can apparently teach you everything about politics. About what is right and wrong. I thought that the University years are for making up your own mind, make your own ideas and make your own set of right and wrongs.

Right wings, left wings, chicken wings and what not, everyone became a political analyst and everyone is an intellectual journalist in the pass of 3 year time. I wish I was half the genius that these people are.

So after they have learnt BBC is bad, left wing sounds cool and most importantly the corporations are taking over and someone has to tip toe around it searching a solution for the problem while wearing a Tommy Hilfiger t-shirt, drinking tea from Starbucks (nothing personal with you Tommy I actually like your designs keep it up) they decided to launch a magazine.

Music critics that know everything about music gathered, with the boarders of the term “music” stopping at Cold Play, fat sport critics that knew everything about sports and they had a sharp pen in their hands attended too and last but not least the funny witty guys were there too. And they all decided to make a magazine.

Well, me on the other hand, not witty, average weight and definitely knowing very little about sports, I thought that it would be a good idea to try and launch an online magazine too. After discussing it with a friend of mine, we agreed that the criticism and analysis on their criticism and analysis on the subjects that they discuss on their magazine would a funny and entertaining thing to do not only for us but hopefully, for other people too.

Nothing is certain yet, we’re still building the foundations. Hopefully if everything goes right we’ll have our first issue in a month or two. If not, well, I guess then there won't be a magazine from us. I don't know, time will tell. Let's keep our fingers crossed and hope there will be an update from the progress of this little project of ours.

P.S: The picture has nothing to do with anything. I just liked it and thought of putting it up.
