Update, Long Overdue

Just recently I escaped a two-week long pedagogic torture session, affectionately know to me and my peers as “AP week.” Basically, I’ve been studying a lot and stressing out even more. As such, I’ve let this site descend into a period that can only accurately be described with one word: stagflation.

Yes, of course, that’s not the only word I could use, but it’s certainly the most ridiculous, and therefore most appropriate. Luckily for you (and no less for me) APs are over and I can begin to pick up the pieces. I’m currently working on a number of projects that require investigation into a wide spectrum of American culture and politics: unequal education opportunities, immigration, evolutionary projections on society, modern racial tensions, and the spirit of terrorism, to name a few. This research will no doubt necessitate updates, so do check on occasion.

I have a sneaking suspicion that this site is becoming increasingly irrelevant. So, in an effort to win the readership of all those metropolitan youngsters and adults out there, I’ve decided to offer a simple media rating system. As you might suspect, my opinions on movies or, for that matter, anything cultural, are uninformed and essentially valueless. In life, it’s important to separate facts and moods. The former is eternal and unchanging; the latter is vain and temporary. I’ve made no attempt to separate the two in this rating system.
