  I recently spent one whole glorious night and one cruisy Saturday morning in bed with a guy I had met on that universal fuck den, the dance floor. We left the club at 4:00am with the crusty remains of my purple lipstick smeared across the both of our faces and made our way back…

lip magazine
No comments

There is a little back story to the one I’m about to tell. I am studying a journalism diploma in Brisbane, which is an amazing, fast tracked, 10 month, in-the-field course. However, I am desperately struggling with such a fast-paced news environment and to be honest, it’s sending me a little crazy. On top of…
