A strange thing happened right after I put the xx’s new album, “Coexist,” on my iPod. My headphones broke in such a way that, unless you tamper with the cord every couple of minutes, you can’t hear any vocals. Luckily for me, “Coexist” is an album that rides heavily on its stellar production, courtesy of […]
In their newest record, “Tornado,” four-person tag team Little Big Town creates a beautiful country album. They creatively blend small town gospel with deep, rich resounding tones that stick with the listener long after they take off their headphones. Going back and forth between slower, heartfelt songs and upbeat, fun foot-stomping tracks that engage the […]
Since I crossed the border from “Boys Have Cooties-ville” to “Hey He’s Kind of Cute Town,” I have fulfilled just about every young adult romantic comedy cliché I can think of. Some of these instances resulted in relationships of varying duration, while others were nothing more than periods of wistful admiration from afar. I’ve fallen […]
As a recenty-turned 21 year old, I find it very appropriate to tackle the issue of trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but also enjoy the social life that comes with being 21. Before I turned 21, the only thing I worried about was how to afford it, because the bar scene is spendy! Now, […]
Forty-two days ago, on Aug. 15, I got my last real haircut. In another 57 days, around Thanksgiving break, I will receive my first shaping.

For those of us in the Fraternity system, the fall season represents a return to the college life. Another whole year to strengthen bonds with our brothers, find and recruit new men to join us and of course, the chance to spend some time with the lovely members of the sororities. They represent their individual […]
“Are you in a sorority? You should probably tweet about how much you miss your sisters over the summer, its so precious…” Thank you for those words of wisdom @CondescendingCharlie. Thank you. Due to the recent spike of condescending and/or sarcastic twitter accounts, Greek life has been taking a hit. Sororities are constantly being ripped a new […]
For one University of South Dakota student, working at Walt Disney World for more than five years was not as magical as Mickey Mouse made it seem. As appealing as Cinderella’s massive fortress and Aladdin’s magic carpet rides may look to the average visitor, the Disney employees working the attractions are not as entranced with […]
