November 23, 2016
There aren’t many days of the year I enjoy more than Thanksgiving. In fact, if I were to set my personal rankings of the best holidays, I think Thanksgiving comes in behind only Christmas (what about Christmas doesn’t make me happy?) and the Fourth of July, ‘Merica, Baby! Thanksgiving is great...

Rated 5/5 Belles I have a routine. Well, I had a routine. I would leave school, drive straight down 135th Street to the Taco Bell near Twister’s and Walgreen’s, pull up to the drive thru window and order two items from the dollar menu-usually, the spicy tostada and the chicken quesadilla. Yesterday, ho...

Saturday night my beloved Chicago Cubs played Game 4 of the 2016 World Series against the Cleveland Indians at Wrigley Field. With the Cubs trailing in the series 2-1 and the Indians pitching their ace Corey Kluber, I was legitimately worried about our chances to win the game, let alone the whole serie...

The Mc10:35 is traditionally an Egg McMuffin with the addition of McDouble burger patties. Named after the dark ages when McDonald’s didn’t serve all-day breakfast, people were expected to get to the restaurant around 10:35 AM to catch the breakfast to lunch changeover. While today, this Mc10:35...

How I became a bullet journaling buff
Loving yourself is so punk rock, Eden Kurr
October 7, 2016
You may have heard of bullet journaling - a growing phenomenon of both millennials and older generations turning to something that has nearly disappeared. In our digitalized world, the act of journaling and writing things down seems like a waste of time. But in actuality, I have found journaling on...
A cup of tech: iPhone 7 overview

October 6, 2016
The iPhone 7 and 7 Plus have been met with both criticism and love. An obvious source of criticism is that Apple broke its pattern of releasing a new iPhone design every other year, but two new finishes bring elegance and beauty to the design. The headphone jack is gone, breaking many people’s promis...
A cup of tech Introduction

It all started when I ripped the crisp red ribbon off my Christmas present. In shock, I looked down at a compact black box. “What could it be?” I wondered. I curiously tore off the rest of the Santa Claus wrapping paper. However, this was no ordinary present. I stared down at a rugged, antiquated ob...

Confidence is a powerful thing. Too much of it, and you’re arrogant. Not enough, and you’re self-deprecating. The exact right amount can be hard to find, especially in an increasingly difficult-to-navigate society, because there is no “correct” way to love yourself. In this blog, I will be...
