‘Guess why I smile a lot. Uh, cause it’s worth it.’

Annie Brown | Wednesday, August 31, 2022

Propelled seemingly by some mechanism inside its rubber body, a tennis ball rolls, turns and erratically bounces down the stairs, eventually coming to rest near the couch.  The ball is a little tattered, as if it has been rolled down these stairs many times before and the viewer is simply looking in on a daily

Adriana Perez | Tuesday, April 6, 2021

About a year ago, one month since COVID-19 had been declared a pandemic, I made a discovery that changed my study habits (and honestly, my life): a YouTube video of Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me to the Moon” — “but it’s playing in a different room and it’s raining.” For a total of two and a

Cupid struck me with his arrow at 2 a.m. on a Thursday. He commenced his sneak-attack while I was playing my favorite weeknight game: How late can I stay up without falling asleep in my first class the next day? There are many variations of the game’s rules depending on who you ask, but my
