YouTube Roundup: Summer EditionBy May 3, 2013 - 12:34pm Spring, you coy mistress, leading me around by the temptation to wear flip flops even if it means flip-flopping cold mud splatters up my skirt so my ass cheeks look like a Jackson Pollock painting. If you want the weather to commit to warmth as much as I do, here are some of my favorite musical reminders from the interwebs that summer is coming. Movies based on ‘the young people’ of Retro America promote summer as that idealized child’s utopia, forgetting about the rampant racism, sexism and all that good stuff of the mid 60s. Spielberg-style adventures await, and parents and internships lie dormant, out of mind in a sticky cloud of DDT. READ MORE |

Top 5 Things I Do Not Have Time For as a Senior GirlBy May 2, 2013 - 3:06pm All year, my friends and I have adopted an attitude towards guys/clothes/life that we privately refer to as "senior comfort." I recently discovered that we're not the only ones who've come up with this--there's a similar term floating around the Ivy Leagues known as "swug" or "senior washed up girl."

But besides being the wittiest show to come along in a very long while, it had the power to build friendships. Indeed, the friendship of the authors of this article is in part due to their mutual love of this fine program. Here, Haleh Kanani and Sara Spruch-Feiner discuss a few of their favorites from the first five seasons of P & R.

Confessions of a Should-Be DoctorBy April 30, 2013 - 3:33pm I never doubted that I’d be a doctor. I never doubted that I loved biology. Sophomore year I went at that frog dissection with vigor. Not in a sadistic, oh-hey-look-at-her-she’s-crazy kind of way, but with legitimate passion for science and anatomy. So I came to college with no doubts that I’d be biology major. That I was going to be pre-med. That I would go to medical school, do a residency, and be a practitioner. That I’d don those blue scrubs with pride, a genuine smile on my face as I handed a couple their new child. I saw ruptured aortas in my future instead of sharpened pencils and clerical work. I saw a swift and brilliant medical career with flasks of solutions and prescription pads and heroic emergency saves. ... |
