Here are two songs that perceive New York differently than I do. I’d like to think that NYC is classier than that. Which song do you think best describes Summer in the City? Both of them make me feel lonely. Hopefully, that’s not how it will be.

Love — from someone else’s perspective
My friend Jeff wrote this article about me and Pete for his news writing and reporting class. I thought I’d share it with you because it’s cute, and he did a great job with it. Also, here’s a picture of us from the Spring Weekend concert a few days back. ST. BONAVENTURE – Emilee LindnerContinue reading “Love — from someone else’s perspective”
Happy Earth Day!
Levi’s asks how you combine style with sustainability. http://bit.ly/SWTCEarthDay Today, I made this cute recipe book. My mom and I bonded while cutting out recipes from old magazine (of course, recycling the remnants). I cut out cardboard from a used box and glued a scrap of cloth I found lying around with our crafts. I adhered theContinue reading “Happy Earth Day!”
Money isn’t real
I’ve only been reviewing these materials my grandpa has given me for ten minutes and I feel so frustrated. I want to stop. After further examination, my grandpa has given me not only the financial report for Petroleum & Resources Coporation, but for Pfizer as well. He also stuck in a Fidelity Investments Portfolio StockholderContinue reading “Money isn’t real”
homework
My grandpa gave me homework. My grandpa of all people! He gave me a packet of stuff at the last recital he came to. (Roommate Shana writes about it.) There’s a financial report for Petroleum & Resources Corporation and a ballot to vote board directors. My grandpa and dad hold stock in that company, soContinue reading “homework”
Word of the day: egregious
EGREGIOUS My friend Danny uses this word to describe EVERYTHING! So naturally, I had to see if he was using it correctly. He was. And wasn’t. According to Merriam-Webster, egregious means ‘conspicuously bad.’ So when I was reading the part in my sister’s job application where she said she’s seen some ‘egregious’ instruments, I couldn’t believeContinue reading “Word of the day: egregious”
Resolution #5
5. Run a 5K – On the running note, I ran 5k at the gym yesterday. Running laps bored me, but in the end, I felt happy. The endorphins were amazing, and I felt accomplished. My sister invited me to run one with her last year, but due to lack of funds, I had to turnContinue reading “Resolution #5”
Grandpa
Hello! I’m back! My grandpa came down to St. Bonaventure to visit me Friday. It’s been a long time since we spent one-on-one time together and it was so great. We made the drive to Portville to dine at Sprague’s, the usual “someone-is-visiting-me-at-college-so-let’s-get-off-campus” restaurant. We were attacked by the maple aroma surrounding us — anContinue reading “Grandpa”
The day I realized I wouldn’t write for a local newspaper
I remember it clearly. The classroom was warm — the kind of warm that gives you a throbbing headache and dry eyes. My fellow feature writing class members watched as a goateed man in a golf hat pranced toward the lectern. He was a graduate of the Class of 2008, and we could already tellContinue reading “The day I realized I wouldn’t write for a local newspaper”
