Labels can liberate rather than limit
(02/03/14 11:12pm)
It’s OK to like labels on things other than clothes — or really, on anything but your clothes — because those things can be itchy and uncooperative. Some people say labels are limiting, but I argue they are liberating. As humans, it is easier for us to categorize things. Labeling helps us process the world around us, as well as ourselves.
Netflix: Why net neutrality matters
(01/30/14 11:46pm)
They say that when we landed on the moon, the scientists who got us there used computers with less processing power than what’s in an iPhone. This implies that everyone who has a computer today has an opportunity to do something awesome. It also implies they’re probably wasting that opportunity, consuming massive quantities of porn or binge watching series on Netflix — or a weird combination of the two.

(11/14/13 11:05pm)
Gainesville was straight-up COLD this week. We’re talking hats, gloves, coats and boots. On days like those, it’s hard to get out of bed and face the world — a pile of blankets, a mug of cocoa and a Netflix binge sound way more appealing than class. But you’re all champs: You went to class, you studied hard and now it’s Friday. Treat yo’self to a peppermint mocha latte, and enjoy this week’s edition of Darts & Laurels.
Oh, to be young again
(11/06/13 1:56pm)
When you think of college the first thing that comes to mind is frat parties, drinking, and club hopping all night (or until 2 a.m. when all the clubs close). Yea, college is like that sometimes, but there are also projects, term papers, quizzes and reading… lots and lots of reading. When midterms and finals comes around, the only thing you want to do is just lay in your bed all day long, almost comatose, and watch Netflix like it’s your job. It is times like that when you wish you could just be in Kindergarten again.

Do girls lose self-confidence in college?
(10/11/13 3:08pm)
When you woke up today, did you jump out of bed and feel great about yourself? Were you full of belief in what uniquely makes you, you? Were you brimming with glorious self-confidence that threatened to spill out and rule the world?
Taking back my makeup, one lip color at a time

The death of college dating by hookup culture
(09/16/13 11:27pm)
The college-dating scene seems to be a culture of not-quite-caring — an awkward landscape pocked with holes and valleys that trip us up on the way to understanding our relationships.

However, you and I both know that you are not a good student and you are going to use that loan money to buy anything but school supplies.
