I've started a new habit recently. It's one of those things that you initially think is something you only do by yourself. Everybody does it. But often you find yourself thinking it would be a lot more fun if you had someone to share it with. And I've found this cool website that lets people [...]

So my new year's resolution is to be healthier. Now if you knew my workout habits and eating habits last year this is not very hard goal. But I am really working my butt off, going to the gym 4-5 times a week and eating healthy food. When I am at the gym and doing [...]

We all have a favorite pair of jeans. They're faded from wear, and fit perfectly every time. When we wear these jeans, they don't say: "I never shrink in the wash." What they do say is: "I'm from the GAP." It is no new idea that our bodies are walking billboards for advertisers. Strolling [...]

This is the block title on the homepage for Windows Vista. The most prominent technology company in the world has this as the tagline of their flagship product? A lot of things make me go "wow": The Rocky Mountains, The Statue of Liberty, Air show stunt pilots. However, I don't think [...]

There is too much controversy in advertising. I mean if I have to see another hetrosexual couple kiss on tv I'm going to get sick. Don't get me wrong, many of my best friends are straight and I don't have a problem with their lifestyle-what they do behind closed doors is their business. [...]

For one of my classes I am helping out an outreach program for senior citizens. I went in today with my partner Laura and gathered some information about the organization. The questions and answers will help us during the auditing process to ensure they receive the best results possible. The results we hope will help [...]

My iPod goes wherever I do. I've determined I can leave my phone, wallet, cash, and sense of self at home; as long as I've got that shiny black gadget, I'm good to go. But now, people like me are starting to become more and more frustrated with the incompatibility of purchased music with a wider [...]

This was a pretty exciting year for football fans in the Midwest. Every college student I know watched the SuperBowl. If they weren't cheering for the teams, they were waiting for the ads. Being a college student and having direct access to this demographic, I wanted to offer a few observations and reactions from my [...]

I can be described as a polyglot. At a very early age, I discovered the connection I have toward other languages and to diversity in general. In fact, while a kid, I always dreamed of being a translator. One of my early goals was to add Italian and English to my repertoire. Perhaps, my background [...]
