Life Is Short


I am almost positive that every college student in his or her life has done one of the following: Strategically waited to answer a text message: Putting the phone away when the text was received at 12:51 p.m. and promising you won’t answer until 12:56 p.m. and 33 seconds because that’s the perfect amount of […]

I Just Don’t Know


College is about learning, about knowing things. Yet, in my last semester of college I’ve been spitting out the phrase “I don’t know” like a broken record. “Are you going back to the East Coast after graduation, or are you staying in L.A.?” “I don’t know.” “What are you doing after graduation anyway?” “I don’t […]

Five things only peanut butter lovers will understand


A wise person once told me that for college students, food falls into only two categories: 1) peanut butter and 2) foods to put peanut butter on. So if you love peanut butter as much as I do, you’ll feel me on this. When you get that late night craving and the only thing you […]

#RIPTwitter or Not?


It was the BuzzFeed report heard round the world. Last Friday, the news site claimed that Twitter was planning to replace its signature reverse chronological timeline with a redesigned algorithmic feed that would prioritize presumably better content for users. While this would make popular content harder to miss, many were concerned that other voices would be […]

Love U: A labor of love


Relationships are hard. That’s an easy lesson to learn. What makes a relationship worth all of the labor that goes into building it? That’s a much more difficult question to answer. I didn’t have an answer to that question when I came to college. In high school, I was always guarded. I kept my emotions […]

Ask Tiffany: Friendzoning 101


“I have a friend who keeps wanting to hang out. He’s really awesome, but I fear he likes me more than platonically.
