Media Piece
My GPA went down because of this site.
Ha! I love Tumblr to death, but before this year, I rarely social networked. I created my first Tumblr account on December 27, 2009. At this time I didn’t know what formspring.me is, and I had just deactivated my Facebook. I had been active on but three websites: eBay, Wikipedia, and Stereogum. Now I commonly visit /mu/, Tumblr, Pitchfork,...

Penultimate Post
The Awakening is so good, y’all. Even Men’s Rights activists like me my friend Dave love it.

Um, here are some groundbreaking blogs that need to have reports written about them …

Mixed Results
My friend instant messaged me this:
“There are bed sheets in your backyard drying in the sun, it suddenly starts raining, the doorbell rings, your baby child is starts crying, and the phone is ringing. Which one do you take care of first? There is nobody else at home that can help you.”

Download Time

Primer Bloggers
Ugh! What a terrible week! I’m mostly kidding, but I’m happy that spring break — for my very small sector of northern New Jersey — has finally begun. Notable tokens of the past week include the continued greatness of Kate Chopin’s The Awakening, my school introducing new ultra-specific hall passes, and my (often) good friend Paul helping me out with the complex...
