Summer Reading

Every time I get a break from school, I make a reading list. At the top of it is the book that I would be reading at the time, and the rest of the list would be the books that have been accumulating on my bookshelf. I have always been a reader, Judy Blume got […]

Roommates

Two years ago, almost to the day, I met my first college roommate, Pearce. He was weird. We never spoke, he spent much of his time with his headphones on and would often burst into song. My friends found him strange when they came over as well. Later in the year, something clicked and we spent a whole night […]

The Stress of Moving Into a College Dorm

This week I helped move my sister into her college dorm. About four years ago, I did the same for my brother, but it was totally different. Girls have twice as much stuff as boys and God forbid you help them put away their stuff, for fear of discovering ducky boxers. Before we left home, […]

Tucked away in the very back of the Los Angeles bureau, up against […]

Free Health Care? or Free College?

I read this article on Yahoo about how states are now beginning to cut aid to college students. This is happening because of the recession. More people are asking for financial because more parents are losing their jobs, among other circumstances. States are struggling to balance budgets and are beginning to slash programs left and right.

When Ashton Met Janet

Hello there. No sooner than the second-to-last week of my internship did I have what proved to be both the most exciting and upsetting workday. With our L.A. reporter still on vacation in Croatia, I was able to film yet another special-ordered correspondent imported from New York. This was my last and longest off-site shoot, […]
