I’m not a person who’s big on celebrating my birthday. But for some reason, I wanted to try to make legitimate plans with my friends and boyfriend this year. After a few hours of arguing due to an extremely selective eater, we decided to go to Little Italy for Italian food. Anyone have any suggestions […]

Jamey Rodemeyer
“As if she couldn’t make this weekend’s post any more depressing?” I know, I know but this is something I feel compelled to bring up. Recently another child, a mere fourteen year old boy by the name of Jamey Rodemeyer took his own life by after being bullied for being gay. Jamey Rodemeyer Story CNN […]
“Out of many, One people”…oh except if you’re gay
In case I haven’t mentioned before, I’m still in the closet to my parents and family. Why? I see it as a personal choice. You come out when you’re ready. I like the freedom of doing as I please for now without the feeling of my parents and/or family judging or watching over my every […]
A different perspective on Focus
The 7 train. I love it. Some Tibetan guy eating a spicy somosa next to a hispanic family chowing down ghetto Chinese food from Main St. Music, noises, language, voices, angry people, sports fans, students, elderly couples… the list goes … Continue reading →

Oxymoronic: Friendly arguments, productive disorder, dissensus, […]

There are a number of books taking up space right now on my nightstand and many more sitting on my desk. The ones on my desk are anthologies that I will probably try to sell on Amazon or something once the semester is over. Although I think I’ll keep To Wake The Nations by Eric […]
secret confession
I love writing papers. In fact, I’m working on one right now, for no other reason than my own personal satisfaction.
Sports are weird but wonderful
Start off by a cool shot to win a game by clicking-do it now! The World’s most amazing Basketball Shot! What is it about sports that captivates the nation? Playing sports makes some sense. There’s the friendly competitiveness, the social aspects of it…but watching someone hit a ball with a stick for four hours? See […]
Decisions Decisions!
“Happy Monday. Make this week different from the last.” -Jx Every day we make decisions of what to do, and those little decisions will add up one day and make something big. Life goals can be achieved through those little decisions, and I am where I am now because of it. But now that I […]
