This morning I was back at home in Haverhill Massachusetts and I decided to vote nice and early at 8:00am. My little sister was extremely enthusiastic about tagging along. Listen to our experience and the sounds of voting:

I have had more homework in the past 2 weeks than I have ever had in my entire life. Physics problem sets, studying for math tests, papers to write, books to read. It was absolutely horrible. The only way I was able to deal with all this work was actually to stop working and take [...]

Last night, I was awake in my bed until 4am. Probably not the best thing to do right before the first day of classes, but for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about where I was going in life. Where have I come from and where do I want to end up? I’m starting to [...]

When you absolutely don’t know where to go, the University Service Center (USC) will be your answer. The USC serves as one of the offices on campus that deals with the peculiar or funny issues that you are going through.

You’d think that the few extra days for a “study period” would warrant everyone hitting the books and spending hours on end reviewing information that was either long forgotten or never learned.

My parents, who grill steaks and bake chicken religiously, told me adopting vegetarianism was out of the question. Realistically, I probably could’ve [...]

Every Monday and Friday of my college career has involved me wearing a button down, tie, and slacks. I would be asked “Why you lookin’ so fancy Andy?!” No, I did not join a fraternity. Yet, I was a part of an extremely enriching experience. For almost 7 months, I interned at the Massachusetts Statehouse [...]

I had a really bad stomach ache today that persisted throughout the entire day. I consider myself a pretty knowledgeable person when it comes to my own body. So I figured if I just kept eating the same things I usually eat I’d end up being fine. Wrong. Mistake #1: I have a high fiber [...]

Yesterday I did homework, went to class, volunteered, went to a club meeting, went to another club meeting in order to write about said club, came home, did more homework.
