  • 7 Quotes to Live By…and 1 That’s Terrible [This Post Grad Life]

    My family doesn't really celebrate Easter, but some of my friends from other schools mentioned they would be home as well. It's always nice to see old friends. Well I got a text from one that said, "I want to do an adult Easter egg hunt. Somehow also made into a drinking game," to which I replied, "Jello shots in plastic Easter eggs that we have to find!"

    On Friday, March 16, the Obama Administration issued a few clarifications to the Affordable Care Act’s consumer protections for student health plans. Are you scratching your head?

  • How Do I Know If He’s Blowing Me Off? [Ask a Dude]
    So I met this guy around Christmas time, and we really hit it off. We hung out a lot until we both had to go home for Christmas break. The momentum kind of died, and when we both got back into town, he started emailing me a lot. I asked him why he hadn't tried to see me, and he gave the typical busy with school and work excuse. I wrote it off as him blowing me off, but the guy hasn't stopped emailing and facebooking me! Does he really just want to be my digital friend?
