What I do

For those of you who think that I need a hobby, I'd like to announce that I've found one. Creating blogs, writing posts, and generally causing havoc in the Daily Universe's sports department. As some would say you have to do what you are good at, right? 

Soemthing else I'm good at is listening to people when they speak. So this is what I've been listening to recently, the first comment on my post on Thursday at 8:05, and so this is what I've done.

Thank you for reading The Daily Universe and for responding. It's always great to know we have readers out there who pay attention to what we're doing.

First, I want you to know right away that we at The Daily Universe have no intention of discriminating against women or treating them unfairly. But I think where your argument might be a little misguided is that you're taking a stand for women's rights, when really this is an issue about sports journalism and not sexism.

Thursday is now Tuesday

Apparently to The Universe Thursday is now Tuesday. Don't ask me why this is, it just is.

Turf Wars

Ok now I can tell the story of what started out as a pretty great day.

The Education I Pay For...

I now have one semester under my belt and, according to the great US system, am a sophomore in college. But some how I don't feel like it. Perhaps one of the greatest factors is my physics class. The student body reminds me of my High School Freshman Biology class. Or maybe simply every high school freshman class since the beginning of time...

A Final Reflection: My world, My country, and Me

As a final reflection for this class I first decided to make wordles of the headlines for all of posts. So here they are:

A Digital Revolution

Here is the video from our final presentation! This experience and class have been amazing. I hope you can get as much from this video as we have to give.
