Off the Cuff — Quick takes on life from our Editors

Summer daydreams

I spent my whole shift at work daydreaming about the beach and going fishing for cat fish … I need summer.

Slipping through the cracks

I’ve never let procrastination get this bad before. It’s starting to scare me.

Beast Mode

My dad has completed yet another triathlon. 1,500-meter swim, 40-km bike ride, 10-km run; what a monster. Nice job, dad!

Baseball Season

Just started and I can’t be more excited. It’s going to be an exciting seven months.

Happy April Fools’ Day

I enjoy satirical writing a lot, so I couldn’t pass up the chance to write a satire in the opinion section that would be published on April Fools’ Day. In a related thought, I am wondering if it is a bad thing that one of my dream jobs is to write for the Onion.

Dear ‘How I Met Your Mother,’

Not bad

The Cardinals won the opening game of the MLB season 1-0. Now there are just 161 games left before another postseason run to the World Series.

Not impressed

Students like to complain to their friends and on the Internet, but when given the opportunity to actually learn about the things they complain about and voice their opinions in a pubic forum, not one is in sight. Well, maybe just one.

My little brony

My love for “My Little Pony” is only matched by my love for not remembering to write my OTC.

–Phil
