Learning Everyday
I wrote this blog post in early February of this year, 2/5 to be exact. And as I look back at all the unfinished blog posts that never see the light of the “Publish” button, I felt this one is the most relevant considering graduation is in 8 days and I took my last test…
Check out the story I’m featured in! I contacted the Georgia State Signal, our student run campus paper, and asked them to look into a story. I became fed up with the “career fairs” on campus and wanted my opinion to be voiced. After speaking with one of the editors at the paper they decided to…
In my strategic management class we were “discussing” Google and its competitors. I put “discussing” in quotes because it was really the teacher and two other students who had read the case study but none of them understood the points they were trying to make. Class that day was equivalent to pulling teeth for a…

Yum! Below are some pictures I took from my Samsung Focus. Yes, that was Hogsmeade and the Three Broomsticks. They converted Dueling Dragons…
Being a college student, I posses no culinary skills and remain hungry all day long; ergo I try restaurants on campus. This is the second edition of the oh-so cleverly named Favorite Places to eat: Georgia State University. In the first edition, we visited a pizza place, a Vietnamese restaurant, an American joint and an Italian…
Being a college student I know I should really focus on saving my money and packing my lunch to develop better life skills for when I’m older blah blah blah. Downtown Atlanta, particularly Broad Street, is home to some pretty grood (great + good) restaurants. I single-handedly keep these restaurants in the green by the…
