...difficult, and the personal choice I made to live a jam-packed life has ultimately been fulfilling.Nevertheless, I haven’t been able to ignore the message that Lewis, some professors, and even peers have spent years trying to impress upon me. Last week, a casual breakfast with a resident tutor turned into an unofficial advising session. I mentioned I was shying away from writing a thesis due to a heavy load of extracurriculars, courses, a fall internship, and job searching. “I need to slow down,” I told him. Though disappointed...
...wasn't just her Hollywood star power that made Audrey Hepburn glitter. In 1961, during a photo shoot to promote her role as Holly Golightly in the film Breakfast at Tiffany's.

"The situation is very bad," he said from his garden. Israeli artillery fire and its crack-boom followed by a lingering zing of the outgoing shell punctuated his sentences. "We've had six years of peace, but everything has come back to us. All the fear and the bad economics."
