Off the cuff – Quick takes on life from our editors

Baseball

Now that baseball is back in full swing, I don’t miss my Vandal sports as much. The Red Sox are helping fill the void. 

–Madison

Sorry Theo

I saw my soulmates again this weekend. They come in the form of a band named Blind Pilot and I’m in love.

–Kaitlyn

Second to last OTC 

It’s about time to start counting down every last this and every last that. Please let me know when it gets annoying and I’ll let you know when I care.

–Lindsey

Do the right thing, NBA

It’s time to start talking about the E-word. Both cities deserve this.

–Sean

Life lesson No. 46,789

It takes courage to admit you rushed into a decision and to back out of an opportunity. Happiness is key.

–Britt

JAMM 440

Usually when professors say “don’t underestimate the time this paper/essay/project will take,” I find they are exaggerating. However for this particular paper, when the professor said the above phrase, he was totally not even close to kidding.

–Kaitlin

Hot and cold

Sometimes I wish I still had my mom to tell me when I have to wear a coat outside. I’m never dressed right for Moscow weather.

–Elisa

Good-byes

I don’t do them well. That is all.

–Molly

Hey gurl heeey

Moments like these are an opportunity to remember the good times and reflect on how those you are surrounded by have changed you as a person. It’s tough, but I’m here if you need me. Luff.

–Katy

The end

Imma let you finish, so long as you write a billion words on that essay.

— Dylan

Carbulance

Last weekend I had my first experience driving someone to the emergency room. I want to remind all the graduating seniors to be smart and stay safe while having fun these next two weeks. You don’t want to make these goodbyes the last ones you say.

–Philip

‘Another turning point’ 

Sometimes I wish it was 1996 again so I could listen to Green Day in a totally ironic way. Oh well.

–Kasen

None of the above

I’m starting to question how effective it is to use “none of the above” on multiple choice exams. If the answer is none of the above then students may just know it as that, rather than what the correct answer actually is.

— Theo

Gettin’ old

Man, have I really been sick for three solid weeks? Some lifestyle changes are definitely in order.

–Amrah
