I gotta find peace of mind

I stand apart from my friends on the lawn of a concert venue during a Lauryn Hill show. I look through my glasses at Lauryn, sitting with her head wrapped. A spotlight focuses on her, her microphone and her guitar. An MTV logo floats behind her shoulder. She begins her song called “Mystery of Iniquity,” a guitar strikes and she croons, “It’s the mystery of iniquity ? “Said it’s the misery of iniquity ? “Said it’s the history of iniquity.

In love with Hearts

The Microsoft Hearts Network, or “Hearts,” while carelessly thrown into the Games folder with mere run-of-the-mill diversions, is a fine game deserving of occupying its very own folder. You may have passed over it for the lonely procrastinator’s favorite, Solitaire, the migraine-inducing Minesweeper, the not-without-its-charm Space Cadet Pinball or even for the tragically impoverished Freecell.

Exterminators of the world, unite!

I used to pride myself on thinking that I didn’t hate anything. Were there things that I strongly disliked? Of course. I could rattle off a somewhat excessive list of what I abhorred, detested and generally despised with little prompting. But I did not hate.

Fall Fashion Extravaganza

Here at Voice Fashion, we spend a lot of time researching the Next Big Thing. But when not researching the Next Big Thing, we are making fun of the way some people dress. Why?

The Sports Sermon

There is a need in life for many sports fans to pick on historically inept professional franchises. Many hardcore sports fans, the ones who read Sports Illustrated weekly, watch Pardon the Interruption daily, listen to sports-talk radio hourly and refresh espn.

Yankee Pride

It’s that time of the year again everybody. No, not football season?playoff baseball time. If you can’t get into this year’s playoffs, then I’m sorry ‘cause you just ain’t a true baseball fan. This year, more than any other in past memory, there is no clear favorite to win the title and there looks to be a lot of potential for upset.

Men’s soccer shuts down No. 11 Rutgers

The Georgetown men’s soccer team battled past No. 11 Rutgers on Saturday in front of a rowdy Homecoming crowd. The 1-0 victory boosted the Hoyas’ record to 3-4 overall and 2-1 in Big East competition.

Georgetown’s lone goal came in the 24th minute, when first-year forward Kemmons Feldman challenged a mishandled clearing pass by Rutgers senior goalkeeper Ricky Zinter and deflected it into the Scarlet Knights’ goal.

What will happen to the 35,000 square feet of space soon to be available in New South Cafeteria? A pub? A quiet study area? Based on the strong representation of students who participate in performing arts at Wednesday’s student forum, part of the new space will likely go to drama, dance and music.
