	Taylor Swift: Whiny or Wonderful? By Sarah Kloepple April 25, 2013 - 10:49am Taylor Swift has had an explosive career since the launch of her second album, Fearless, in 2008. Since then she’s been an award-winning icon for the country-pop crossover genre for the teen generation and, more specifically, break-up anthems.

	My Life in Buenos Aires By Fatima Mareh April 19, 2013 - 6:35pm Buenos Aires, known as the Paris of Latin America, is exactly that. The people, architecture, and food are all very European with a dash of Latino culture. If it weren’t for the language, I’d probably forget I was in South America. It’s been about 2 months since I’ve been in Bs. As. living in an upscale neighborhood known as Recoleta. It’s a beautiful neighborhood with many tourist attractions: the most important being the Recoleta Cemetery, which I live 2 blocks away from. I love life as a porteña. If you like gigantic fast-paced cities and don’t mind tan, green-eyed business men five out of seven days then you’ll love being in Buenos Aires. READ MORE
