Five Take Home Messages of the Day: If all of my material possessions were to disappear (a la the San Bruno fire), I would be okay. However, I wish I had some thing (two words) that I would regret losing the most, if my material possessions were all to disappear. Right now, it is my [...]

My new life goal is to become a purveyor of compressed air. I will set up shop on Ebay and sell to naive individuals who own technology with small, inconvenient gaps or holes or vents. This will be the beginning of my days as a legendary entrepreneur. Also, this new career change is so that [...]

Not that I have a thing against hipsters, but isn’t this text just flipping brilliant regardless? (608): Do you think people stop being hipsters when they’re naked? Because that’s what my research shows. Okay, I lied. I do have a thing against the flaunty, i’m-so-over-everyone-else-isn’t-life-a-fucking-cup-of-irony hipsters. I like the casually hip ones, but the ones [...]

During Spring Break, instead of partying it up in Florida (or whatever teens stereotypically do), I completely rehauled my closet in San Francisco. Now there are fewer pieces that inspire “WHAT WAS I THINKING” moments. In exchange, I think my philosophy on life (and clothes) shifted. The following are reminders that should be imprinted in [...]

Dear S, Upon browsing one of my favorite sites, I came across the answer to your walletlemma.

College is what you make of it. With that said, I’ve compiled a list of part-time jobs that would make me happy(er) here at UCLA. Babysitter. Contrary to popular belief, kids don’t hate me.

Dear Bravo, I love love LOVE your network so much. I love your trashy shit like the drama on The Real Housewives of the OC. I love your competitive shit like Top Chef and Project Runway.

I never knew indecisiveness mixed in with idiocy and commitmentphobia would ever lead to this but… I can’t pick a fucking new phone. I’ve gone to the Verizon store twice in the past week and both times, no dice. I don’t think that it’s normal to go through this and I don’t know what to [...]
