Road Rage Much?
During my stay at CCU, I’ve had a couple run-ins with crazies. Monday morning was just another day when a person lost their cool, but this time, he paid for it. A senior football player, was arrested around 8:40am on Monday morning because he was upset that I took his...
Rick Santorum for President? Oh Hell No!
I haven't been a big fan of politics ever since my current events teacher turned me off from it in 12th grade. He would spend 70 minutes a day spewing out his conservative homophobic slander, tell us that democrats have a mental disorder, and force us to watch FOX...

“He Asked Me To Call! I Called!! He Never Called Back!!! Why Does This Happen To Me!?”
I know they always teach us not to allow ourselves to get upset if someone – especially a love interest – doesn’t call us back after we’ve tried them a couple of times. O course, when I was young if you were “pretty girl” you didn’t ever call them! I have to admit I...
