This year, I've made my decision. I will stand firm. I will be brave. I will stop ordering so much wings...and cheap Chinese food. I will stop being a glutton and start eating correctly. I made the same resolution last year, actually. But this year, I resolve to...
My first semester here was quite a mess actually. I was homesick during the semester, sleeping at unusual times, struggling to remember everyone’s names (hey, it’s hard!), as well as trying to keep up with the course work. And then what happened was I left an apple...
Although I would love to go to New York or Boston over the Thanksgiving break, it’s not that bad staying with some friends on campus. I never had time to go explore much of campus, so there are things to do, i.e., see the bird sanctuary, visit friends that lived off...

The sad thing about finishing a school year? Saying bye to all your friends that are going abroad. And then wondering why you aren't. Oh yeah, thats riiight! Mom was scared I was going to get dangerously ill because she heard from her friend's cousin's friend's mom's...
One of the best things about spring break in a small college in the middle of nowhere: no one on campus. No one to catch us in our bouts of ridiculousness. My friends climbed up a tree, and while I was panicking, our college’s president walked outside her house to...
Hello, everybody. Let me say something about classes. Although there are MANY interesting classes out there...and you may be tempted to sign up for a lot of them...Here are the scenarios I have observed among friends. Recommended: 4 classes a semester. Reality: signs...
Now that everyone's gotten the applications over with, I bet you'd like to relax. Well, don't. Not yet anyway. There's something else...FINANCIAL AID! DUN DUN DUN. Truth is, even though you may get into the school of your choice, or even several of them, let's face...
