Super Bowl Sunday is coming up, and if there’s one thing I am thinking about, it’s snacks. What am I going to eat during the Super Bowl? I mean, don’t get me wrong, the football thing is cool too, but I’m a food blogger. Food. Is. Always. On. My. Mind. It seems as though everyone […]

LookMazing is a new site I recently heard about from an intern, sophomore Bella Ly. When asked what exactly LookMazing is, she explains, “LookMazing is a new SF startup fashion social network. It allows people to upload their outfits and fashion/make-up videos, tag the clothes they are wearing so other people can recreate their looks. […]

It was during the middle of winter, probably around this time of year. I was in fourth grade and the girl sitting across from me wore a black tank top that said NOTHING TO WEAR in metallic pink. She paired her tank with a short pastel-pink skirt. I was on the other side of this […]

One man at UCD has danced his way to success. Keith Hennessy, who teaches the class “Theater, Performance and Culture” at UCD this Winter Quarter, ended 2012 with quite a bang: he received a prestigious award from the United States Arts Fellowship for his contributions to the field of dance. Hennessy is perhaps most well […]

Django Unchained: Classic Tarantino material excites but is marred by disjointed presentation So far, popular opinion concerning Quentin Tarantino’s latest directorial effort has focused solely on the explicit nature of it’s violence.

You know that urge you get to pop open a bag of Lay’s chips as you’re rummaging through HuluPlus looking for something to watch. Well, that was me this weekend. I found a TV show, but I found no snacks. So naturally, I went over to Whole Foods to see what healthy and cheap snacks […]

An absolute rarity occurred this weekend — The San Francisco Chronicle went far beyond its typical Bay Area dining coverage and highlighted Sacramento’s restaurants, bars and farms. In the centerpiece: “Fed by a homegrown generation of chefs and farmers working collaboratively, this formerly beleaguered bastion of blah has blossomed into a vibrant village feasting on […]

My 40-day adventure into veganism last year was not without its hiccups. The stint began almost on a whim, the morning of Ash Wednesday. Having decided on this diet change the morning of, my refrigerator was still full of various non-vegan items I’d purchased earlier that week. Stoically, I surrendered groceries to my housemates, a […]

With all the trending “diets” out there, do you have the same opinion as I once did? “These people are nuts! One day everyone is on the gluten-free bandwagon, the next day it’s dairy-free. Make up your mind people. But why are they doing this? Don’t they love Girl Scout cookies? Or do they know something I don’t?” […]

While my winter break consisted of plates upon plates of delicious food, the most mouth-watering meal that I experienced wasn’t something that I ate — it was something that I read. John Green’s “A Fault in Our Stars” has been on the New York Times best seller list for 52 consecutive weeks, but I just […]

It’s 2013! One of the first things most people do to prepare for the New Year is create a list of resolutions to make this year even better than the last one. While some people believe that it’s pretentious and useless, I believe otherwise. I think that even if you fail them by the second […]
