Exposition in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1
I just saw The Hunger Games; Mockingjay Pt1 (twice). Mockingjay is a well made movie. There’s a lot of really interesting and well executed aspects of the film that I could spend hours talking about.

Next week, I will finish my exchange program at Dickinson College, and at this moment, some memories bubble to the surface.

the one where i met my best friend
Alright. Time to talk about something that I love more than anything in this entire world: my dog. Growing up, my family always had dogs. From the time I was born to the time I was about 5, we had three large dogs. One was a Bull-Mastiff named Hooch, one was a something else named […]

Our Generation is Scared
Over the last few days, I have been at it again talking to people around campus. However, this time around, it did not go as smoothly as the last time, where I conducted a mini-study. My goal was to add some student perspective to my airstrike podcast I produced last week, but I ran into a […]
