Editor's Note
(05/27/26 7:00am)
There’s something deeply embarrassing about realizing, while packing up my room to move for the summer, that I might have a genuine addiction to Depop. Every drawer I open seems to produce another shirt I forgot I owned, another pair of shoes I convinced myself I needed because they belonged to some version of myself I was trying to become. For years, I’ve gone through phases of trying to be a minimalist — reorganizing my room, donating clothes, promising myself I’d stop accumulating so many things. But somehow I always return to the same instinct: Surrounding myself with physical objects because they make life feel fuller, more tangible and more well-lived.
Alahyari: Let’s Keep the Blue Book (Mostly) Closed
(05/26/26 8:14am)
Most of the in-class essays I’ve had to write throughout my academic career have ended in a similar scene. With a cramped right hand, I frantically flip through my blue book reviewing my work, all the while nervously glancing back at the clock to check how many seconds I have left. As I try to read over my panicked, borderline-illegible handwriting, I make peace with an inevitable truth: The essay I just wrote sucks. It’s shallow. It’s a desperate attempt to string together ideas from course readings and namedrop theories for the sake of it, and it’s mostly just nonsense. But despite the stressful process of writing it, I’m never very concerned about the quality of the final product. Why? Because I know no higher standard can be expected of in-class writing.
