College close to home vs far from home
awyeahprestonyeah:
There is this stigma about colleges close to home about how you wont be independent enough, that being far from home makes you so much more independent. It is true that going out of state forces you to rely more on yourself to get you through each day. But in my opinion, going to a college only 15-20 minutes away from home can teach you equal lessons (well, at least lessons...

Zombie Run App
I want this. It’s basically a workout routine, only at certain points you pretend you’re running for your dear life because there are zombies right behind you.

Exploring the City
Jacks and Joe is incredibly delicious. I WANT MORE. I got the Seven Minutes in Heaven French Toast that had bananas, strawberries, and NUTELLA. Also got a cup of joe just to top off a lovely breakfast.
Took the F Dash to the Financial District to walk to Angels Knoll
Ended up exploring Biltmore Hotel and was able to get rooftop access heehee not as cool as it sounds because we really...

Dear Coquette,
I’m interested in so many fields. From bartending to chemical engineering and journalism and law. I get that no one cares about your degree, but since these areas do all kind of require some kind of credentials, how should I prepare for them?
Sincerely,
An Enthusiastic High School Junior
You don’t want to be a bartender. You want to be a hipster mixologist...
A Host of Women Put Their Stamp on ‘SNL’ Comedy
WHEN the actress Anna Faris hosted “Saturday Night Live” in October, she didn’t think much about the potential impact of “Tell Him,” a sketch that had her and the show’s female cast members singing about snagging a man by pretending to like video games and hate children…
It was also part of a pattern. With the combination of sharp writing and comically savvy female hosts, “Saturday...

It doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
From Kelly Clarkson.
And I find that to be true in a lot of aspects of life. Not just the obvious being in and out of a relationship cheesiness that seems to populate a lot of songs nowadays. After taking my part of personality tests, I have come to the conclusion that I am an extrovert. Even then, I don’t mind being alone. It’s not because I don’t have friends or I feel...

Sunday marks the 93rd anniversary of the establishment of the Grand Canyon National Park. On February 26, 1919, Congress officially passed the act establishing the park in Arizona.
Known as one of the world’s greatest natural wonders, the Grand Canyon is 277 miles and...
on relationships
youssefineassgirl:
not the advanced lovey-dovey kind, or how to deal with your spouse, or how to be a better friend. on we-just-met-and-i-dont-know-you relationships. where the winner is the one who manages to care the least. and why is that acceptable? why is that a thing? give the least attention, get the most people interested, and you’re a champ. that makes you cool. it’s a stupid, juvenile...
Does be Chinese count as an "Under represented...
These labels are so tricky and slightly annoying….
So
for some reason, right about this month/season, people start getting into relationships or at least make them more public. It’s incredibly adorable. It’s also a reminder that I am single… LOL I have no idea why I keep thinking about the fact that I’m single. It’s not a big deal really. I have much more important things to worry about like midterms and that accounting...
Assassin
My friend is playing an assassin game and now he’s afraid to go out anywhere. He just stays locked up in his room LOL the codename of the person targeting him is Bulls-Eye. I don’t he’ll last the week hahahahahaha
Well I admire the fact that he refuses to die and give up so easily.

silver lining: Losing A Best Friend →
ohjooy:
“In so many ways, losing a close friend is worse than losing a lover. Lovers are transient for the most part but friends are supposed to be there for you always, or so we like to believe. Friendship is a special kind of love that’s not supposed to fade. You never expect the one person you thought…
I wish Beyonce and Jay Z would get on stage and...
Jay-Z: Look, Blue. Everything the light touches is our kingdom.
Blue: What about the shadowy part?
Jay-Z: That’s country music. You must never go there.
Me: Niki says lets eat now and we'll come by to get it afterwards haha sounds good?
Jay: Sure what ever floats your boat.
Me: Haha when do you ever say that. Meet you down at the lobby
Jay: Sure thing baby girl

HAHA this was just a very strange conversation via text.
My roommate has 5 guys chasing after her.
3 of them individually asked her to go study with him tonight at the library.
I have 0 guys chasing after me. LOL
This is why we’re roommates.
Which really doesn’t make sense but I thought I had to do this incident some poetic justice.
For what purpose do you rise in the morning? Truly it is better to be dead than...

Syrup Desserts
Absolutely scrumptious. It’s definitely different since I had a dessert grilled cheese sandwich! Pretty pricey but worth it once in awhile. I went with Anhkhoa, Jay, and Niki.
Food I got:
Grilled Muenster Cheese Sandwich with Blackberries and Walnuts
Mocha Mousse
Both came to a total to about $12. Jay got a Peanut Butter Fluff Grilled Cheese Sandwich and Niki got Cinnamon Apple...
Must try this strangeness at home:
honey, stilton cheese, mini flatbread.
Angel's Knoll-It's okay to be a stripper
Me: When I was sitting on a bench, an old man wearing a sailor hat sat down next to me and started talking to me. He was so nice.
Zach: Some old man in a sailor hat??? ahahahhaha
Me: My friend was like an old man? Isn't that creepy? But he was so nice! Gave me advice why it is a good idea that I am majoring in business.
Zach: I I know LA is full of crazies. it's cool that he was such an agreeable crazy though.
Me: It gets better. When I was sitting at Angel's Knoll, this woman sitting behind me was talking loudly to her friend on her phone. She was like "It's okay if my best friend wants to be a stripper. She has every right to show off her goods. She has some! I'm not going to tell her parents anything" soooo weird. too bad I had no one to laugh aloud with haha
Zach: ahahaha damnit i wish I had been there that'd be perfect.
Secret Adventures (Part 1)- Angel's Knoll
I guess the beauty of living in Downtown Los Angeles is you can take a bus anywhere and go exploring. I was on my way to the Omni Hotel to work a shift for the Marshall Case Competition and I passed by Angel’s Knoll. I didn’t even know it was there! And since it turned out that they didn’t need me, I grabbed my free box of lunch, walked to Angel’s Knoll and sat on that...
Just Lin, Baby! 10 Lessons Jeremy Lin Can Teach Us...
Lin-sanity has swept up the NBA over the last week. Now it seems like the phenomenon has gone worldwide.
Friday’s 38 point performance by Harvard grad Jeremy Lin for the New York Knicks against the LA Lakers was his greatest performance yet as a starter, since he burst on to the scene and propelled the team to 4 straight wins.
Lin now has over 200,000 followers on Twitter. He’s got over...
Some people are so unreasonable and irrational.
I simply don’t understand some of them. I will try my best to, but there comes to a point where it just doesn’t work I guess.
Company Merging&Acquitisions Negotiation Test...
I did a Marketing Experiment today where we had to play out a negotiations meeting where me and this other person would play as representatives of two companies looking to merge together. We would have to negotiate a few agreements of what we wanted that included things like headquarter locations, lay-offs, salaries, etc. We had a chart of how many points certain options would get us and our goal...
