Yet Another Reason I Don't Like Feminists
I recently wrote a opinion piece titled "Six Simple Rules." The intent was to give some heads up on behaviors women practice over and over again that will ultimately hurt them. It's posted in this blog so feel free to read it. Anyways, the same newspaper, The Eastern Echo, that published that...

Repost-Geek Scale
How Much of a Geek are You? There are many kinds of geeks in this world. Probably far more than is safe or healthy. And I'm sure there are some who devoutly wish geeks would disappear tomorrow. But then the nerds would take over. And that *shudder* would be truly horrible. So...without further...

6 Simple Rules
During the past few weeks I have read a couple of articles in the Echo dealing with men’s behaviors. This has got me thinking about how girls interact with boys. I would like to propose a few ground rules for the gals. From what I’ve observed the female gender is woefully ignorant of the...

How do You Disagnos Depression?
Lately I've been wondering if I should go to a clinic. I keep feeling down, sad-just not myself. It doesn't want to go away. I find myself crying for no reason. Not wanting to go anywhere or do anything. Almost dreading being around people. I know this isn't normal. I hate it. I can't figure out why...

Should Teaching History Involve Judgement?
I just sat through my first Native American History class an hour ago. I can already tell that a large part of this class will be a blamefest. What I mean by saying this is that the teacher clearly had an attitude that communicated "blame the white people" when it came to Native American History....

Strikes Only Hurt
Some of my University professors are currently on strike. Guess what that means? Absolutely no progress with two of my classes. The school hasn't provided subsitute teachers and the negotiations have shut down. I really don't get what the professors are complaining about. The school's offering to...

Right now I am trying to loose twenty-fourty pounds. I want to get down to 125 from 160. I've modified my diet and try to eat more veggies and fruits. I've started working out at the gym more and investing in protein drinks. Yet I am gaining not losing. I've gone up to 163. I'm not sure if this is...

Simple Yet Effective Self Encouragement
Have you ever noticed how high a price tag commercials put on boosting self esteem? Overweight? Spend hundreds on diet pills! Acne? Buy a $70 kit! Want to look good? Buy expensive designer clothes? And that list doesn't include makeup that seems to produce instant beauty. The truth is everyone wants...

Why Am I So Different?
What does someone do when they can't fit what society has proclaimed "normal"? That's a question I have struggled with my entire life. I am and always will be an extreme introvert. It's difficult for me to form friendships. I let very few people into my inner circle. Even than it takes a while for...
