Illinois governor, Rod Blagojevich, was in a rut. Eliot Spitzer won the award for biggest douche politician of the year for being a manwhore and this news made Blagojevich sad. It ate inside him, this nagging feeling that some no0b nabbed the coveted prize after only being in office a little over a year.
He figured [...]

Here’s to another year
2008 has been an interesting year to say the least. I survived working two semesters in a dining hall. I made a few new friends. And I somehow managed to stay alive after having the schedule from hell during my fall semester. I also managed to survive stats and pull a B by some sort of [...]

I declare war on you!
I think anyone who lives in the Northern part of the country, especially a state that borders Canada, will sympathize with me. In my case, not only am I subject to the winds from up north, but they are worse when in close proximity to Lake Ontario. And this also causes lake effect snow, which [...]

So much cute — GAH!
This isn’t really a problem when I’m at school, since I am surrounded by college students and faculty for the most part. But, when I’m home I am faced with a problem. I am surrounded by lots of small children and babies. This causes me to feel old and overwhelmed from the abundance of cute.

‘Tis the season for giving. Which reminds me of a type of thing that only people who have family in foreign countries (more specifically ones that are poor) can relate to. When preparing for the trip to said country, there is the obligatory giant box or suitcase of “gifts” for the relatives there.

A letter for stupid people
Guess what time it is? Letters to stupid people time!
To the right wing writer/annoying idiot for the college paper:
You are entitled to your Conservative beliefs, however you are not entitled to write pretty much the same thing over and over every week. By now the entire campus knows your hatred for Obama and all things [...]

I can’t feel my face!
I’m pretty sure that everyone has heard about the giant snow storm that slammed the Northeast yesterday (December 19, 2008). Well that was the last day of finals at my school, and that means a very miserable day for everyone that was still stuck on-campus.
I couldn’t go home before Friday because of my Spanish final. [...]

Stats is hazardous to my health
This will be a quick one, but I’m done with statistics for the semester (and hopefully never have to take another damn stats course as long as I live). Stats was my most brutal class thus far in my college career and it has done a few things to me. There is only so much [...]

I have a theory that my school is trying to kill me. What is this crazy theory about this time?
Because my school didn’t update the history minor core requirements. One of the requirements is to take an intro class in European, American, and class in either African, Asian, or Latin American history. However, on the [...]
