It’s a Friday night now, and I just made it through another week of classes. This past Wednesday, my Art History research paper was due, and I did mine on Frida Kahlo, my favorite female artist. I was content with what I wrote, and I really put a lot of effort, including adding bits and […]

Road Trip to Rochester
Prime time… So this past weekend I went on a road trip with three friends from the Music Department here at Queens College. We went to Rochester NY for a music educators conference. High points of the trip were many. I have to say that when you get four young guys on a road […]
Registering for Classes… Fun Times!
Am I the only one that likes registering for classes? The first time I registered for college classes, which was just this past June, it was insanely stressful. I remember sitting in the room with other Freshman Year Initiative students and struggling to find classes that were available to us freshmen but that also didn’t […]
SAT-GMAT-GRE-LSAT-MCAT-REGENT OH MY!
Standardized exams are generally disliked by many who must take them. They are considered to be stressful, time consuming, inadequate, tiring, and overall “pointless.” As I sat in my living room drinking my morning coffee and watching the “news” (I’m using that term very lightly) I saw that students no longer will be provided with […]

emancipate yourself from mental slavery (is that too bold?..i like my bob marley)
As I suspected, things at work brightened up immediately as things concerning the GCO/IRB settled. Sort of, we are awaiting reply: bureaucratic (Word Origin & History: 1818, from Fr. bureaucratie , from bureau ”office,” lit. ”desk” + Gk. suffix -kratia denoting ”power of;” Definition: 1. government by many bureaus, administrators, and petty officials 2. any administration in which action is impeded by unnecessaryofficial procedures and red tape) Friday was extremely rewarding.
