Real World bare: Meet the Family
Monday, August 3, 2009 - 8:09am
 For some reason, my family loves to remind me that the world does not revolve around me. Although I think they point out this fact at a rate that is possibly highly detrimental to my ego, they have a point. Sometimes I can get caught up in personal trials, tribulations, and semi traumatic events, and consequently forget to be grateful for all the good things that come my way. Even when I tal...

Real World bare: It's Official
Monday, July 27, 2009 - 8:26am
I’ve always been a little bitter about the characterization of this generation as tech wizards, computer addicts and gizmo collectors. Now, I facebook ten times more than what’s considered a healthy amount, think online celebrity gossip sites are just what the world needed and want to become a minister that spreads the gospel of Google. All that I can do. But once you mention the word ...

Students in careers in math and science can generally expect a more encouraging and constructive message than those who decided math was irrelevant after 11th grade. For those in the business world, the wel...

Will Good Girls Ever Win?
Wednesday, June 17, 2009 - 9:02am
I am currently considering protesting the comic book industry. Actually, no, I don’t want to bring all of those guys down. After all, they are smart and creative enough that they could probably come up with some sort of genius, scientific and creepy way to eliminate my existence. Plus, my tiff is not with those kinds of comic books; they can continue on with their super heroes, villains and ...

Real World bare: Intern Week One
Wednesday, June 10, 2009 - 7:54am
       Neither America Ferrera nor Anne Hathaway make the magazine journalism world look like a particularly friendly one. Between the backstabbing coworkers, thankless assignments and Cruella de Vil like bosses, this movie and primetime show make working for a magazine seem like an experience that only a deeply confused or disturbed individual would wish upon themsel...
