Homework-Isolation is hard
I’ve locked myself in homework-isolation to work on my last projects for the last two communication classes I will ever take as an undergraduate. (Mostly isolation, anyway, and with debatable success, as you can see.) I’m freaking out a little both with happiness and what-if’s-of-doom and working fairly frantically, trying desperately not to get ahead

Two Weeks! Tally-ho!
Two weeks, two weeks, two weeks, two weeks, two weeks! I graduate on the 11th! It’s comiiiiing! In the meantime, I’ve been dabbling in advertising and the next installment of my Yu-Gi-Oh mini-documentary series is in the works. Also, the resident feline has been nice recently. It’s been an exciting semester all around. To cover

A lot of “Finalies”

Wishes and Kisses, Left and Right
First off, merry Christmas and general well-wishes! You are all appreciated whatever you celebrate or don’t celebrate. I celebrate you. So there. And happy New Year, too! We’ve survived another year! Yaaaay! And then there is this: I most likely will be graduating Spring 2012! Yaaaaay! It won’t be with a degree in Mass Communication

Occupy, “We are the media”
I don’t get political. I don’t know enough. Even if I knew as much as most informed people do, I feel like I still wouldn’t know enough to say anything with any real authority. But I think the Occupy movement deserves at least some comment. While it would help, as with any cause, to know

Let’s see if I can stretch this to fit
First thing’s first. Familiarize yourself with All Hallow’s Read! And if you don’t want to read, here’s Mr. Neil Gaiman to explain it to you, himself: Now that we have that out of the way, I have a new concept to throw at you. Why not write scary stories to share? I hate parting
