fifty-five;

No, I am not turning fifty-five. I am, however, turning 20 on 11th November. But 11th November 2016 is also special for another reason – it is the day I am moving out of Whitaker Hall. I’ll be moving from this vintage heritage brick building, into a brand...

A’s, baes, due days

I have three assignments due this week. Have I started any of them? No. Did I go out the last two nights and frivolously shun my responsibilities? Yes. Did I complete the two assignments due the week just ended, yes. Did I have a ridiculously late night at any point...
