February 14, 2014

At some point, everyone hits the frustration of their exercise regime or new diet just not working as well as they expected. We want results, and we want them fast. After all, we are making sacrifices like sore legs and abs after rough days at the gym and finding the willpower...

Valentine’s Day: Just another day?

Valentine’s Day: Just another day?

Sydney Roberts, Assistant Lifestyle Editor
February 13, 2014

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow, and what better way to prepare for the “holiday” than to celebrate the true meaning of the romantic date. Believe it or not, Valentine’s Day is a complete and total lie, much like Columbus Day, where we celebrate a man who murdered thousands...

Not So Super Bowl

February 3, 2014

For many, Super Bowl Sunday is one of the most anticipated days of the year. Personally, I think it should be a National holiday, but we all know that will not happen. The Seahawks and Broncos played one of the most boring championships in recent history. Regardless of whether...

Who didn’t love playing with Legos as a kid? It’s pretty much a right of passage for any elementary school-aged child to pick up the iconic bricks and build whatever they please. It’s an outlet for creativity, imagination, and awesomeness, but how do you capture all of...

Look Good Naked: Even when hibernating sounds better

Leah Fleischel, Editor-in-Chief
January 31, 2014

So, it's been cold. And I can't think of anything that makes me want to exercise less than negative temperatures outside. Going to class is a chore in itself, which for me rules out spending as much time at the gym as I would like. Heck, it was cold enough for some of my fitness...

And so I begin my first comedy movie review. As I said in my previous article, I am all for crude comedies. One of the funniest one’s I’ve seen is South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut. Animation, foul language, and a topnotch soundtrack form the basis of this one of a kind...

On the scale of awesome cookies, the snicker doodle is at the top of the list, slightly behind chocolate chip and peanut butter. It is light, fluffy, and sweet with a hint of cinnamon, which makes it the perfect treat. There are many methods to making and perfecting this delightful...

January 22, 2014

A little while back I was lucky enough to find one of those smoking hot movie deals that come in the form of packs. Any situation where I can get multiple movies for $5 is a good situation. It's even better when the movies are actually good. Lucky for me, I found myself in that...
