Opinion
Do I need to bring this jacket? Do I have enough shampoo? I have an entire trailer full of random things; will it all fit into my tiny dorm room that I’ll be sharing with someone else? Needless to say, I had an extensive amount of concerns on my mind […]
Some Beach
There is a “problem” on campus that needs immediate attention! Please everyone, listen. There is not enough lighting on campus. We all need to be worried of the creepy man waiting in the bushes for lonely women to walk by. I originally intended to write an article on campus lighting, […]
