	I Tried It: Revenge TV Show Workout By Julia Kennedy March 4, 2013 - 12:08am What can I say – I’m a product of the 21st generation. I am who marketers direct their commercials to, I am who spoilers are leaked to, and I am who thrives off of any and everything pop culture and media driven. I weep during Grey’s Anatomy finales and Budweiser Clydesdales commercials alike, and analyze promos from Trident Gum to Cascade Dishwashing Soap for underlying sexist or racist innuendos.

	Lent By Zoe Schmidt February 26, 2013 - 12:31pm Hello Beautiful People, As many of you know, Lent started last week and as both a Catholic and a challenge-seeker, I once again participated in this religious ritual.

	Keep Calm and Travel On: How to Escape the Tower of London By Kathryn Walters December 8, 2012 - 4:28pm Today, I accomplished what countless poor souls could not dream of hundreds of years ago. That is, I entered the Tower of London...and I left. Gasp! How did I achieve this? With a little help from my friends, a kindly Beefeater, the ghost of Anne Boleyn, and possibly a raven or two. Kidding! But really though, I did visit the Tower of London today with our program. SUCH a major check off my life's bucket list. I have only been dying to visit the Tower since at least the age of eight. Just goes to show what a strange child I was. To put it quite simply, the Tower of London is unbelievable, in the best way possible! It more than exceeded my expectations. READ MORE
