This item was filled under [ Interesting and Fun! ]

One of my goals this year, it being my senior year at Mason, is to really get to know Washington, DC. I’ve barely spent any time at all in the district the last few years. There wasn’t any particular reason for me to avoid it- it just didn’t happen. However, every time I went clubbing [...]

My awesome [...]

This item was filled under [ Interesting and Fun!, Musings, Portfolio ]

I have woefully neglected my blog lately. I’ve just been so busy hanging out with family and friends and sucking all the life I can out of my days in Dallas this summer.

Last fall, a group of foreign correspondents were brought to George Mason University during one of the Mason Votes watch parties for a presidential candidate debate. I talked to a [...]

Looking at the profile yesterday got me thinking. I seriously need to get some decent photos of myself with my current hair cut and hair color that I can send to potential employers, profilers, etc.. One in which I’m not posing in front of the Colosseum. I love that picture, but I’ve honestly sent it [...]

Dan Reimold of College Media Matters contacted me a while ago for an interview - He posted a J-Student profile on me July 11.

I’m going to be a big nerd here and dissect all the foreshadowing in the first episode of season five of Grey’s Anatomy. I rewatched it today and I was just amazed at how many plot points and twists were hinted at or joked about in this episode. Shonda Rimes, the writer of Grey’s Anatomy, [...]
