I’m way behind on news of this sort, but I guess Flight of the Conchords had their second season finale last week, and supposedly it will be the last season of the show. I have to say, if it is indeed the last episode, I’m so happy that they decided to end it like this:

Vegas: The good, the bad, and the (very) ugly.
So my parents decided that it would be fun to go someplace warm over break, and I agreed. And where is the cheapest warm place to fly from Seattle? Las Vegas.

Eat the View
A few months ago, I discovered a website called Eat the View, which was leading a campaign to get the Obamas to plant an organic garden at the White House. Of course, I signed the petition, thinking that it sounded like a great idea. What better way to encourage others to start their own gardens, [...]

Flickr Commons Favorites
I’m taking a break from finals and doing of my favorite activities: browsing through the Flickr commons. On the site, there are archive photographs from The Smithsonian Institution, Library of Congress, the State Library of Queensland, and more.

Don’t hide those guns, girl.
I’m sure everyone read Maureen Dowd’s article concerning peoples’ complaints about Michelle Obama’s sleeveless wardrobe. Dowd explained that while she and David Brooks were sharing a taxi to the British Embassy, Brooks commented “She made her point…Now she should put away Thunder and Lightning.” He then elaborated, “She should not be known for her physical [...]

It’s genius!
My new obsession is the iTunes Genius playlist feature. You select a song, click a button, and voila, there is a brand new playlist made for you based on that song! And let me tell you, the playlists are good! I know a lot of it is just selecting similar artists, but I think it [...]
