Loading ...Every college girl – hell, every college student knows that school requires a lot of sacrifices. You give up things that you would have never otherwise dreamed of giving up beforehand. I’m entirely guilty of that (and don’t act like some of you aren’t, either); I’ve been taking my summer vacation for granted […]

Comments (4) Just HOW Dangerous is Dangerous When it Comes to Energy Drinks?
June 9, 2008 - 2:30 pm
Let’s be realistic; with classes, homework, studying, hobbies, work, and that thing you like to call a social life, we college girls don’t have all that much time for sleep. As much as we’d like to say that 8 hours a sleep of night is ideal, most don’t get that. And after five […]

Comments (0) My Personal Weight-Loss Journey: Day 95
June 4, 2008 - 10:30 am
Well, I kept my promise and detoxed. Lemme tell you; it was not easy. I know everyone always says that it’s mind over matter and that other mental stuff, but I never really listened to it until a day into detoxing when all I wanted was a medium-rare steak, curly fries, and an […]

Comments (2) Confessions of a Wrestling Fanactic
May 28, 2008 - 10:30 am
There’s usually some sort of bustle on the floor in my dorm on Monday nights. My roommate’s focus is Top Chef, while my friend Allison used to be utterly devoted to Prison Break (she dropped it in favor of Pushing Daisies, which should be back soon!). Heroes used to be playing in at […]

Comments (5) People Fall For Internet Hoaxes ALL the Time (and I’m not lying)
May 25, 2008 - 4:00 pm
Now, I consider myself to be pretty internet savvy. I know how to search for stuff I need, what sites are good and what sites suck, and all kinds of stuff I’m sure you probably don’t even want to think about. But even I fall for things sometimes, and though I tend to do research […]

Comments (1) Blast To The (sort of) Past: Visiting My Old High School
May 19, 2008 - 5:30 pm
I know people who look back at high school and wish they could go back. I know people who want to leave it in the past and never look back. And I know people who could really care less either way. I don’t really know where I fit in that, but I […]

Comments (1) Matching Your Clothing: Probably Easier Than You Making It
May 16, 2008 - 9:30 am
As a person who wore uniforms up until 11th grade, I can tell you that matching clothing is NOT one of my strong points in life. I have a tendency to put together colors that don’t go together well at all. And yet somehow, even with my limited training, I still manage to see women […]

May 15, 2008 - 5:30 pm
Those of you attempting to keep track with me and my diet – or those who just notice the blogs as they work their way down the page – might have noticed that I haven’t been updating recently. Nothing has gone wrong, really. In fact, nothing has gone on at all, and to say that […]

Comments (3) I’m Home! …Now What?
May 13, 2008 - 3:30 pm
The few days or weeks after finals can be such a relief from those seven or ten days of straight stress that you really don’t want to do anything. Being home feels so much better than being cooped up in your dorm room – at least for a little while, until your family reminds you […]

Comments (0) ‘Iron Man’ is More Awesome Than You Can Fathom
May 6, 2008 - 10:30 am
When my girlfriend asked me on Friday night if I wanted to see Prom Night or Iron Man, I had to seriously wonder if she was kidding. Iron Man was one of the very few comics that I read as a kid, and I was so outrageously excited about the movie that I had […]
