Honestly, I've been staring at my screen for a long time, unable to write anything. I suppose my writing paralysis comes from the fact that everything I began to write sounded like an obituary. I have an abnormally premature fear of death. There's something about the fact that these words are supposed to capture my life at Dartmouth, and I know I can never do it justice in writing. It's hard not to make old memories and advice sound trite and lifeless. But I'll try.

What you wear certainly says a lot about you. The clothes we wear are not just for functionality, but also for performance. There's a reason why suits are mandatory at interviews they gives off an impression of confidence and capability. But when you take a man out of a formal setting like a job interview, a dilemma arises: Can and should a man be fashionable?

I probably wouldn't be writing these words had the dice rolled differently. When I applied to college, I was a wait-listed at Dartmouth.

"Latin jazz really all started when Dizzy met Chano in the '40s in New York City," Sanchez said in an interview with The Dartmouth. "Dizzy was already really famous on the trumpet, and he had his band, but for some reason he wanted to play around with Latin rhythms."

In the slew of recent popular and viral Tumblrs comes an unlikely sensation,"Texts from Hillary," a collection of memes based on photos of power-suited Hillary Clinton texting on her cell phone. The humor of the Tumblr is grounded in a clever juxtaposition of stately and serious images of Clinton and political figures with chatspeak-heavy LOLs, ROFLs and winky faces. In one post, Ryan Gosling is seen saying his symbolic, "Hey girl..." with Clinton responding, "...it's Madame Secretary." In another, we see President Barack Obama on the couch texting, "Hey Hil Watchu Doin" with the Secretary of State curtly texting, "running the world." "Hillaryous," to say the least.

During high school, some of us came straight home from school and collapsed into ourselves away from the gaze of our teachers. Others went to the gym for a workout. But for some, every waking hour after school was dedicated to playing a sport. Some of these people were recruited to play their sport at Dartmouth, while others were not but that doesn't mean they've given up on their sport in college.

My driving test is something that still haunts me. I hit the car behind me during the parallel parking section. Because of this embarrassing and traumatic event, I still feel uneasy parallel parking. I guess it's fitting that I go to a school where I never have to park because driving is, for the most part, unnecessary.

Over spring break, I turned 22. It was when I was blowing out the candles on my cake that I felt an odd sense of anxiety and nostalgia. At first, I thought this feeling was because every birthday after 21, for lack of a better word, sucks. But according to "Ryan" from Yahoo Answers, I was experiencing a "quarter-life crisis."

"The piece both is and is about responding,'" Van Pelt said. "Responding to the drawings I am constantly making in my intern studio, responding from one element or material to the next."

When you line up all the Ivy League school mottos, Dartmouth's doesn't quite fit in. Harvard's "Veritas," meaning truth, and Yale's "Lux et veritas," meaning light and truth, exude a certain collegiate sophistication. Our motto, on the other hand, just doesn't have that same ring to it. "Vox clamantis in deserto" is an admittedly borderline emo teardrop motto, one that Conan O'Brien joked was "easily the most pathetic school motto I have ever heard."

It's hard to use sinks when they're clogged. I have personal experience in this field, having walked into my bathroom only to find one sink filled with a pungent and chunky orange vomit, and the other with what (I think) were 10 soggy granola bars.

Dartmouth is well-known for producing truly outstanding alumni. To name a few, Dr. Seuss, Mindy Kaling '01 and Timothy Geithner '84 all represent the unique sense of individuality that the College on the Hill strives to instill in its students.

Amy Schuman '12 seems like the quintessential romantic. She crushes on guys and has a clear vision of her prince charming. For her, a perfect relationship would include movie dates, hand-holding and nordic skiing.

I recently went to this thing called "Strictly for Seniors." I thought it involved free drinks at Canoe Club, but it was actually a meeting about how to get a job. Talk about disillusioment. I feel old.

T.S. Eliot once said, "April is the cruelest month." And this year it was. It was filthy. If Dubstep embodied a season, it would be spring in Hanover. The dreadful 30 days brought snow, sleet, hail, thunderstorms and mudslides galore.

Lets play two truths and a lie. (1) I never worry about class medians. (2) Nobody here cares about his/her future. (3) Bieber > Rebecca Black.

Sean: YO, MAN you gotta chill out sometime. Cut that heavy-handed writing, take a deep breath and kick it like I do. I get just as much shit done as you do, with half the stress.

I once thought I had mono. For a week, I did absolutely nothing and blamed my uselessness on my 20-hour naps. Turns out it was just a cold. My bad.

There are a lot of things Dartmouth students try to fake: fashion (e.g. flair), pong skills, healthy eating, society taps and studying on FFB. The list goes on. Something Dartmouth students successfully fake? Their intellect.

I'm no expert on women's fashion, or any fashion for that matter. Still, there are two fashion trends among females in Hanover that just don't make sense. What's the deal with those giant tote bags? Or more importantly, JEGGINGS??
