New Love or New Pain
Most of my friends think running is torture with a few extra steps, but is it really? I think running is a wonderful, enjoyable activity and everyone should do it. It is a simple escape from everything—the stress, noise, emotions and endless tasks that I procrastinate on (including this article). But there is really something magical about the rhythm of your steps and the rush of wind brushing past your face—the feeling of being as free as a bird. However, many friends still

Ever wondered what the RH chickens do in a day while we’re off roaming the campus, fighting to stay awake in lessons, and rushing our assignments?

Over my 12 years of exposure to the strange little corners of the internet, I have gained several skills—reciting the entirety of Bye Sister by Tati Westbrook ( Oh my God, time and place! And you did it at my birthday dinner! ), being able to identify at least three different subsets of the 9/11 to Ellen DeGeneres pipeline (and I’ve even managed to extend it beyond just t

I'd Survive a Horror Movie
If I ever end up in a horror movie, I think I’m definitely surviving. Part of that confidence comes from knowing I’d never pull a Mayor Larry Vaughn from Jaws (1975). A woman washes up in pieces and this man’s first thought is, “Let’s keep the beaches open, folks! Gotta think of the economy!” Sir, your economy is floating in literal pieces. Instead of shutting things down, he slaps on a smile and calls it “one of the best summers we’ve ever had,” as if that’s not a leg drif
