In case you aren’t already aware, it is officially Christmas. You see, here in Michigan it seems that once Thanksgiving is over it begins the month-long holiday of Christmas. It stretches from Nov. 25 until Dec. 25 and consists of holiday songs playing entirely too loud, people hanging and placing an obscene amount of ornaments…
There’s nothing I love more than sitting in the comfort of my dark room, eating toasted marshmallows and watching reruns of “How I Met Your Mother” on Netflix. I could be having the time of my life just lying in my jammies all weekend long and napping, because Lord knows I deserve that second nap…
As a petite woman, I’ve heard it all. I look like a middle schooler or a 12 year old boy. I’ll be thankful for my looks when I’m older. Someone even asked me if I was anorexic…but I’m not. In fact, I was born three months early and barely survived. But since people usually don’t…
I urge you to take off the mask. Approach this in the most objective way you can. If you cannot do this, you will waste your time reading further. I urge you to read fully and to read thoroughly. I urge you to question, wrestle and try to understand what I have to say. To…

A whip cracked in the windows of a house dressed in white. Kong lies dead on the lawn, gunpowder mixed fluids, oozing into wavering soil, that knows no legal boundaries. War dogs in transit to the police To route out masses, who either throw molotovs or stand at attention with their community. The ones who…
I walked out of Phelps Dining Hall the other night looking down at my phone to answer the messages I missed during work. Suddenly, I heard a “meow.” Looking up, I saw that it came from some guy sticking his head out the passenger side window of a red pick-up truck. I looked around and…
I have seen enough Facebook posts and heard enough conversations about how people need to stop whining. Stop overreacting. Stop talking about this election and move on. I have read that America needs to try and understand the Trump supporters. I can see where our priorities differ and where their background may have influenced their…
I went to bed early Wednesday morning feeling absolutely elated at the news that Donald Trump is president.
