I only recently came to realize the power of stories. They weren’t something that I had paid any attention to, but unknowingly I consumed thousands of them. Everywhere I went, there were stories just waiting to be told. From the pencil on the counter to the passer-by hurriedly pacing on the sidewalk, there were always …

I Can’t Beat This Friggin’ Boss
As the end of my final semester of college approaches, naturally I was finding a way to procrastinate all of the many different assignments I have to do. Today’s distraction was my ongoing challenge playthrough of Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. About a year ago, I started this playthrough on the hardest difficulty (called ‘critical …
Big Red’s Rebirth, Hopefully
If you have been keeping up with Husker football in any capacity this last half decade, you would know that it has not been going well. The team has failed to post a winning record in each of the last five seasons, and has just recently fired their head coach, Scott Frost. The Blackshirts lost …
A Look at Thanksgiving
I am a big fan of Thanksgiving. It is a fairly underrated holiday, at least compared to Christmas. Seeing and enjoying your food, friends, and family is always appreciated, and every time Thanksgiving rolls around, it feels like it comes at the perfect time.

We’re shaving off seconds and frames, battling the clock like it’s your little brother and he just stole the last cookie that was clearly for you. Such a personal attack cannot go unpunished.

It was crazy how far reaching that stuff was and still is to a smaller extent. I was happy that the majority has passed …
The Perfect Veteran’s Day Book
I was walking through the Student Union at UNK a few days ago. I was heading to the cafeteria to grab some lunch, but on the ground right by the stairs to the cafeteria there was a table with a number of books on it. Each one was wrapped crudely in cheap wrapping paper and …
Living in the Future | A Look at David Carr
It is crazy how different the world is from a little over a decade ago. We have wireless earbuds that funnel music and videos into our eardrums expertly. With a tap, the song can be stopped or the next one started. You do not even need to look at the phone. We now have ten …
