Watch

Introducing, the Apple iPad. Not a fan of the name, but I guess iBook and iMac have been there and done that. And the world, yet again, is changed by Apple. So is this what I’ll be asking for as a graduation present? This is incredible, though. Steve Jobs’ idea of “holding the internet in your hands,” you can tell that this device is really going to revolutionize the way...

since feeling is first who pays any attention to the syntax of things will never wholly kiss you; wholly to be a fool while Spring is in the world my blood approves, and kisses are a far better fate than wisdom lady i swear by all flowers. Don’t cry —the best gesture of my brain is less than your eyelids’ flutter which says we are for eachother: then laugh, leaning back in my...

Is There Hope for Magazines After All? →

According to this article: “Publishing trade rag Media Industry Newsletter reports that several glossies saw a major uptick in first quarter advertisements, including Marie Claire (up 23% from last year to 255 pages), InStyle (17% to 512 pages) and Lucky (17% to 237 pages).” Crossing my fingers and praying fervently that Condé Nast seems upticks in advertising too.

My Mom is a FOB →

This is quite possibly THE funniest website I have ever found. There are a million instances when my brother and I could have posted hilarious conversations or photos of my mom. Not sure if I want to share my mom’s adorable-ness to the entire world just yet, but it’s oddly cheering how similar some of these moms sound :) Example: “the USC Trojans steamrollered my Cal Bears at...

The (Short) H&M Clothes Destruction Saga →

Yet again, a corporation’s evil deeds were unearthed by a curious NYT reporter. I first heard about this story over the weekend at camp, and it was mindblowing to me that a corporation could be so heartless. How could you slash perfectly wearable clothing simply to avoid a loss of profit? How many people in New York are sitting on a park bench, freezing and starving? And this got me...

It will happen eventually. And it will be amazing. 6: Regular emails/IMs telling you how wonderful, smart, funny and intelligent you are. 5: Thinking about how...

"The College Student ... Dating Older Men" →

It scares me that certain parts of this diary remind me of myself in NY. Just certain parts, not all parts. The older guy thing, definitely. 30+ guy, 20-year-old girl, not okay.
