Well let’s be real, this is Hopkins so it’s never my week. But somehow I manage to keep it together in front of all my adoring fans and the people who read my columns (i.e., my mom and, like, three of my friends). So how do I do it? Well, dear reader (hi, Mom), I’ll let you in on the well-protected secret to my success: Post-it notes.
If you’ve been experiencing a low mood for a long time or you find that your mood is having an impact on your quality of life, you may want to speak with someone — and that’s perfectly fine! There is absolutely no shame in needing help to get yourself through a rough patch in life, so please do not feel that there is! However, if you are simply looking for ways to boost your daily mood as we move into the colder, darker seasons, I have a few food-related tips I’d like to share.
However, there’s not enough room on the wall for 5,365 undergraduate frames. We need one encompassing mural of love in action and friendliness in contact, unified by smiles and narrowed by ‘hellos.’ Or else, some people will be left out entirely.
I refer to it affectionately as, “Small Talk: College Edition.” You’ve probably been through one of these conversations before too. They start out all innocent with a simple ‘hello,’ possibly an exchanging of names but, inevitably, that one question always arises: “So, what’s your major?”
But what about our future lives? How smart is it to keep health off the list of priorities or off the radar completely?
Not only do they prevent you from total humiliation when you confess your unrequited feelings to someone, but they are also a huge time-saver. After all, who wants to invest tons of energy and time trying to plan the perfect outfit and upload the cutest pictures to social media only to find out there was never a possibility of landing a certain someone in the first place?
Alright, so that’s not exactly what Willy Wonka said. But it might as well have been. He procrastinated for who knows how long before he finally started that golden ticket contest that led him to Charlie Bucket.
“Quick, name one Dr. Seuss book!”
But when is the Libertarian debate? What are the polling numbers for the Green Party or Constitution Party? When will third party candidates have the opportunity to introduce themselves to a national audience and promote their views?
With the stress of school and the tendency that college students have toward eating poorly and not sleeping, it’s not surprising that so many of us are falling prey to whatever new strain of the cold virus has been lurking on campus this month. There are ways that we can attempt to protect ourselves, however, and as we move into the cooler months, the need to bolster our immune systems will only grow.
It’s not as though I’d never embarrassed myself before coming here — I run into glass doors like a blind bird on a sunny day — but never before have I been surrounded by so many people who are so much smarter than I am. I spend most of my time with future doctors and engineers, turning those “so what’s your major” conversations into a list of career paths my parents would’ve been proud of.
These lessons arose much to the dread of their sons and daughters who only saw the freedom of that other side. We wished to ride the big roller coaster, to stay up past bedtime to watch the game with Dad, to live as we saw others live. We unsuccessfully fought from the shackles and bottom stair until the winds of time broke down what held us.
Now, you can say I am only using “personal style” as a segue that branches between all things fashion I want to address. While partially true, this really has become something I’ve pondered over the last 14 days. Since my first piece I have settled into my apartment in Paris, started class (albeit three days of it) and tried to immerse myself in French culture. Trips to the monuments were traded for visits to the cinema and people-watching in cafés. The latter is essential to being truly French. For centuries, the French have been flaneurs. Whether in aristocracy or world fairs, they have enjoyed the art of watching others and adopting themselves accordingly. I, myself, noticed this last week while sitting at Le Lithographe Bistrot on Boulevard Raspail.
Zoey 101 was a teen drama/comedy that ran from 2005 to 2008 on Nickelodeon. It followed the life of Zoey, a teenager who just enrolled in a formerly all-male boarding school. The percentage of girls is still very low and the boys who have been enrolled at PCA for years are experiencing culture shock. Zoey along with her younger brother and new friends go on adventures and occasionally get into trouble while looking like they’re having the time of their lives.
The answer, it seems, is Tinder. This simple mobile app has an unbreakable hold on our Friday and Saturday nights. The phrase “I’d swipe right” has replaced “I’d tap that” because so much of our daily lives rely on that little red flame.
Number one: Practically any song by Nickelback
“Oh, wow! John Hopkins? They pump out so many wonderful doctors every year, that’s really wonderful.”
In this world, one day out of any week has the potential to make your breath fall heavy, tired or short and your confidence shake up and down. And this is why, as a University and as a family, we need to take that breath back. We need to let some good back into our vibes.
So just what are Libertarian principles? In very broad terms, libertarians want maximum freedom with minimum government both in business and personal affairs.
The fact that coconuts are healthy and useful is not a new discovery. Coconuts have been widely used in South America, Asia and Africa for centuries, but recently, countries like England and the United States began to popularize the use of products like coconut oil and coconut butter. Knowing this background will prevent the perpetuation of the misconception that some people have of coconuts being another hot new trend in the Western world or some recent discovery.
