...will things ever get better? I can’t believe how awful I look. The deposits of fat beneath my eyelids are puffy. And I’m a pig. I couldn’t find my socks this morning so I’m sure my feet reek. I can’t remember the last time I washed my underwear. Why am I even taking Vietnamese? I live in Georgia. The Harvard University Police Department (HUPD) officer didn’t smile at me just now. Everyone hates me. All I want is to be loved...
...sputterings from Deputies - many of them anonymous - in the French press. Some of the loudest critiques came from the adherents of one conservative pretender to the French presidency, Finance and Economic Minister Nicolas Sarkozy.

Finally, a pet-free suite. I breathed a not guilty sigh of relief because—clearly—no student should keep an animal in a building owned or leased by the College...
...distinctive reek of camp hangs over Drag Bingo, but it’s something that seems endemic to drag events that are staged as performances. Halfway through the bingo night, Diamond Dunhill, a female impersonator who performs at Jacques’ Cabaret in Bay Village and who also happened to win Miss Gay New England 2001, climbs on the Leverett stage and lip synchs to a house version of Cyndi Lauper’s “I Drove All Night...
