Fiction
She wakes groggily, feeling the familiar dull ache of a hangover, intense around the eyes and the temple, making seeing difficult and rational thinking nearly impossible. Slightly opening her eyes, she’s greeted with another unfamiliar room. Steeling herself, she glances over her left shoulder, grateful that she was facing away this time, and did not wake up staring into a pair of unknown...

"Right Now" →
My sister recently posted this to my Facebook as a result of my “OH-MY-GOD-I-graduate-in-a-month-what-am-I-supposed-to-do-I-don’t-know-what-I-want-I’M-NOT-READY” rant I subjected my family to this past Easter weekend. While it didn’t spark any life-altering realizations, it did click on three important light-bulbs:

Life of a Senior Psych Major
When I was a sophomore, I switched my major from Biology to Psychology. While there was one professor who was really instramental in causing this switch, I can say that all of the psych professors at Hartwick made me glad I made it.
Recently, I had the opportunity to pursue a research opportunity with my thesis advisor. My thesis is extremely interesting to me - basically, I’m looking at...

Maybe you are close to it, close enough that the...

No one but ourselves can free our mind
On our last full day in Jamaica, the girls wanted some more sun time on the beach, but since I A) burn in a matter of 5 seconds and B) had already speed through 4 of my 5 books, I decided on something a little more adventurous. I took advantage of the club shuttle to the nearby famous Dunn’s River Falls in Ocho Rios. Getting off the shuttle and walking into the park was a little daunting, as...
