RUTH: #Half2Home

Daily Free Press Admin April 27, 2014

Too often, college students are faced with the perilous question, “what will you do after graduation?” And it doesn’t make it any better when that question surfaces on daily as you near the end of...

RUTH: King Keurig

Daily Free Press Admin April 13, 2014

Every day, I stroll into my room around 6:30 p.m. after a thrilling day of work and classes. I sit down at my desk with my Spongebob mug, scavenge through my covert box of assorted K-cups and mentally...

RUTH: You’re not my type

Daily Free Press Admin April 6, 2014

Whenever I type, Cambria is my font of choice. It’s not the sturdy appearance of the letters that makes me swoon — but the fact that my eyes can actually read it without me hunching over at my desk...

RUTH: This little light of mine

Daily Free Press Admin March 30, 2014

I never thought I’d say this, but my double situated in a South Campus brownstone is too large. I have way more space than I need and I often find myself having the issue of deciding where to put things...

RUTH: From sea to shining sea

Daily Free Press Admin March 23, 2014

The United States is a beautiful country, and there is no doubt about that. There is even a song that was inspired by its spacious skies, amber waves of grain, purple mountain majesties and fruited plain. In...

RUTH: Taming the wild

Daily Free Press Admin March 16, 2014

I remember the first time I went to SeaWorld — August 2012 in San Antonio. I couldn’t believe that it took me 19 years to get to this typical youth destination, but alas, my childhood curiosity finally...

Ruth: Sorting anxiety

Daily Free Press Admin March 3, 2014

The scene begins with an elderly man who has just consumed a delectable turkey sandwich nestled with stuffing bathed in gravy and a dollop of cranberry sauce. He waits for seconds — minutes perhaps —...

RUTH: Luck of the draw

Daily Free Press Admin February 24, 2014

Yesterday I read an article in The Guardian that made an argument against those who consider the Powerball a “stupidity tax”. People view those who partake in the Powerball as fools who are throwing...

RUTH: The water works

Daily Free Press Admin February 10, 2014

I’m still recovering from the terror of my statistics class from sophomore year, but as much as I hate to admit it— I am a statistic. Well, we all are. I’m starting to pay more attention to the...

RUTH: Ice Age: Disney Edition

Daily Free Press Admin February 5, 2014

When I was a junior in high school, seeing “MO” written in big red letters by my English teacher on my essays was a common sight. This was her short way of indicating a section where we had missed...

RUTH: For the love of hockey

Daily Free Press Admin January 27, 2014

It’s a new year, one full of promise and innovative sensations. But one must wonder if some events are a little too far-fetched – even for 2014. In 2012, the Los Angeles Kings triumphed over the New...

RUTH: The happiest garbage pit on Earth

Daily Free Press Admin December 9, 2013

Flowers and Fantasmic: Two words that describe my whirlwind vacation to Walt Disney World this past summer. Imagine a cheesy family posing in front of Cinderella’s Castle with matching hats, neon shirts...
