Extra-large shoes. A pink cane. The smile of glory. A man destined to make others laugh. In a town of cheers and laughter, a group of acrobats performed back-flips, high-wire routines, and played with fire on the corner of an intersection. A rush of adrenaline filled the man’s heart. Adjusting the bowler hat on his…
It’s a topic that’s been heavily featured in the media recently. In fact, you’ve probably already heard of it from Kylie Jenner’s controversial cornrows (read Emily’s article about that here) and the banning of headdresses at Montreal’s Osheaga music festival. Cultural appropriation is an issue that has come to light recently and it proves to be…
We’re all familiar with snapchat. A social media for sharing moments of our lives with others. It’s very different from all the others; Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.

I used to look at couples and think, “Yikes, I’m never gonna be like that.” Now I look at myself and think, “Wow, I love this.” All you singletons better think twice before you puke, because we relationship people used to feel that way too.

I have one confession to make. I’m addicted to the idle pastime of hunting for productivity apps — not for any useful purposes, but because of the sole need to make it look like I actually have reason to use my phone. Also because I feel the need to subtly point out the fact that yes,…
I have gone through countless systems of organization and I was always able to find issues that came with them. As my school year came to an end I discovered a new system of daily logging and scheduling that seemed to fit everything into one notebook. This was the Bullet Journal. I was always trying…

June 22, 2015. I packed my bags and jetted off to LA to join a summer program at UCLA run by Oxbridge Academic Programs. Honestly, I was terrified, being in a brand new city with people I’ve never met before seemed like the most nerve-racking experience ever. I was determined however, determined to discover my…
I have been thinking a lot lately. I found out that I wanted to create better habits. First of all, I hardly exercise. Secondly, I tend to consume processed foods when I am hungry – horrible idea! I believe it’s time for a change. I know a friend who has been creating a better lifestyle for…
