I first came across the poem “Sestina” by Elizabeth Bishop in my senior-year AP Literature class. At first, having been unfamiliar with the sestina form, I did not recognize that this poem was a sestina at all and was thoroughly confused by all the repetition of images and words.
Some of us might be heading home for the holidays, some of us might not be. Whatever our post-semester plans might be, it’s time for us to wind down and anticipate what will hopefully be at least a bit of a break. It’s also just about time to welcome a change of season — fall is rapidly turning into winter. It won’t officially be winter until the end of the exam period, but we’re already getting some of that crisp, wintry weather here in Baltimore and let’s face it, it’s the feeling that matters more than the official solstice.

The casual refusals to consume each dinner’s protein had continued to build up that summer. As a 16 year old unable to hide anything from my mother for longer than a week, I finally decided to reveal my dietary mission.
Every Thursday afternoon, the old newspapers in their stacks all around campus vanish and new ones appear like magic. What you don’t know is what happens the night before.

Last spring semester, I took a philosophy course on morality. The class was often presented with moral dilemmas. These dilemmas placed us in hypothetical positions where we had to decide on a morally superior course of action when all options seemed dubious.
Whether in the form of literature, sculpture, music or performance, art is a way to evoke a feeling in an audience. Common feelings include wonder, boredom or “What on earth is that? What a goddamn waste of time. How high were they when they made that nonsense garbage?”
Amid the never-ending cycle of midterms, homework and people trying to convince me that “these will be the best years of my life,” Thanksgiving break gives me a moment to breathe and remember that getting eight hours of sleep is feasible.
If you’re like me, you’ve also been struggling with the changes wrought by daylight savings, namely the fact that the sun now goes down at 5 p.m. in the afternoon. All in all, I think it’s time for a playlist that will help us all get out some of our frustrations over, well, everything. Hopefully at least one or two of the following songs will help you deal with whatever you’ve got to deal with right now.
One of the storylines concentrates on the literal things that the soldiers carry with them. On the surface, the story is about the physical burdens that the soldiers bring with them, like necessities for war such as clothing, rations and medical equipment or personal items like letters and mementos from loved ones. However, as the story progresses and we become more familiar with who these soldiers are, with their foibles, their distinguishing traits and their flaws, we begin to see that as equally heavy as are their emotional burdens.
