Obsession: Vined
Editor’s Note: For our very first thematic month competition, we’ve decided to explore the extremely personal theme of ‘Obsession’. After much internal deliberation, we settled on Katherine Khaw’s ‘Vined’, a delicate poem that not only showcases her obsession and adoration, but successfully blurs the fine line between a gentle caress and a chokehold. Perhaps, she’s…
C&S Review: Monash Dance Fusion Club
This week I tried out Monash Dance Fusion Club. Well to be more specific, since I couldn’t exactly go for all the classes they offer (of which there are loads), I tried out their beginner Jazz class. Having no solid dance experience and terrible coordination, I was feeling anxious and somewhat terrified. Dance was something…

The entirety of Week 4 in Semester 1 wasn’t just a week when assignments were starting to pile up, but a rather triumphant string of events for the Monash University Investment Group’s annual MUIG week.

Editor’s note: If you’ve wondered about what really goes down during the clubs and societies you didn’t get to sign up for (or decided to let that RM10 stay in your wallet for a little longer), here’s an insider’s look! “WHO ARE WE TO QUESTION GOD-“ The room was bustling with people as…

On the 14th and 15th of March, MuPhas was back in action with their annual Public Health Campaign and this year with a theme that is not foreign to us – Depression.

International Women’s Day 2018
In commemoration with the International Women’s Day, we, the MUSA Wom*n’s Officers, chose to spread awareness and take a stance against cyber harassment. Given that most of us are always hooked on our gadgets and maintain quite an active life on social media, there are higher chances for incidents of cyber blackmail, stalking or hate…
The Rampage – C&S Week
Monday, the dreaded day of all time. I walked in with the usual resting face, because ugh people, community, sunlight, It BURNS. One more friggin’ year then bye : D Anyway, walking in and politely saying “no” to people asking if I was a first-year student, it finally hit me that it was Clubs and…
MUSA (Engineering) Day (Sem 1, 2018)

Monash Cup Opening Ceremony!
The air on campus was rife with anticipation and excitement as the day of the Opening Ceremony of the annual Monash Cup finally arrived. Despite the downcast weather and grey skies, Monashians showed up regardless and waited around the football field for the event to begin. Finally, after a few more minutes of allowing more…
Hello Buddy! (Night?)
On the 30th of August, Monash University’s Pharmacy Society (MUPhas) had its Hello Buddy Night. Much like Engineering’s Buddy-Buddee Night where juniors and seniors gather to mingle, there was already a large group of people registering themselves when I arrived at the Sports Centre at 6 p.m. I didn’t pay them much attention as I…
