The Past Behind the Pictures: The story of one Dartmouth idea

By Priya Krishna | April 8, 2010

Imagine a world where you can be coerced into consuming strangely colored breakfast foods by an unclassified creature named Sam-I-Am, where you are more likely to spot a Crumple-horn, Web-footed, Green-bearded Schlottz than a pigeon on your morning jog, and where a verbose cat can trash your house in a manner that makes the aftermath of even the wildest Panarchy Rave look tame.

Popping the Bubble

By Kate Farley | April 1, 2010

So ideally I would open with a funny anecdote that showcases my notably awkward dancing ability, except every story I can think of is so tremendously painful that it blows right past "humorously self-deprecating" and instead lands us in "so mortifying that it would actually make the reader uncomfortable on my behalf and would also require that I spend the rest of my senior Spring hiding under my bed." Consequentially I will just leave you with some key phrases, which are "martial arts-inspired ballet," "ill-conceived costume at fifth grade hula party" and "in front of guy I liked at the time." ANYWAY.
